More From Yakov Smirnoff

We can't equate spending on veterans with spending on defense. our strength is not just in the size of our defense budget, but in the size of our hearts, in the size of our gratitude for their sacrifice. and that's not just measured in words or gestures.

Some think love can be measured by the amount of butterflies in their tummy. others think love can be measured in bunches of flowers, or by using the words 'for ever.' but love can only truly be measured by actions. it can be a small thing, such as peeling an orange for a person you love because you know they don't like doing it.

The conviction: i will not tolerate this age. the freedom: the freedom to act on my conviction. and i will act. no one else has both the conviction and the freedom. many agree with me, have the conviction, but will not act. some act, assassinate, bomb, burn, etc., but they are the crazies. crazy acts by crazy people. but what if one, sober, reasonable, and honorable man should act, and act with perfect sobriety, reason, and honor? then you have the beginning of a new age. we shall start a new order of things.

Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it ... the spirit of liberty is the spirit which is not too sure that it is right; the spirit of liberty is the spirit which seeks to understand the minds of other men and women; the spirit of liberty is the spirit which weighs their interests alongside its own without bias.
Freedom Lying Heart
We should understand well that all things are the work of the great spirit. we should know the great spirit is within all things: the trees, the grasses, the rivers, the mountains, and the four-legged and winged peoples; and even more important, we should understand that the great spirit is also above all these things and peoples. when we do understand all this deeply in our hearts, then we will fear, and love, and know the great spirit, and then we will be and act and live as the spirit intends.

Religious tolerance has developed more as a consequence of the impotence of religions to impose their dogmas on each other than as a consequence of spiritual humility in the quest for understanding first and last things.
Spiritual Religious Humility
It is hardly to be believed how spiritual reflections when mixed with a little physics can hold people's attention and give them a livelier idea of god than do the often ill-applied examples of his wrath.

Poverty is a soft pedal upon the branches of human activity, not excepting the spiritual.
Spiritual Branches Poverty
Some feelings are quite untranslatable; no language has yet been found for them. they gleam upon us beautifully through the dim twilight of fancy, and yet when we bring them close to us, and hold them up to the light of reason, lose their beauty all at once, as glow worms which gleam with such a spiritual light in the shadows of evening, when brought in where the candles are lighted, are found to be only worms like so many others.
Spiritual Twilight Feelings
