More From Daniel Patrick Moynihan

Given that the nineteenth century was the century of socialism, of liberalism, and of democracy, it does not necessarily follow that the twentieth century must also be a century of socialism, liberalism and democracy: political doctrines pass, but humanity remains, and it may rather be expected that this will be a century of authority ... a century of fascism. for if the nineteenth century was a century of individualism it may be expected that this will be the century of collectivism and hence the century of the state.
Government Political Humanity
I love borders. august is the border between summer and autumn; it is the most beautiful month i know. twilight is the border between day and night, and the shore is the border between sea and land. the border is longing: when both have fallen in love but still haven't said anything. the border is to be on the way. it is the way that is the most important thing.
Beautiful Summer Twilight
When it comes to immigration, i have actually put more money, under my administration, into border security than any other administration previously. we've got more security resources at the border - more national guard, more border guards, you name it - than the previous administration. so we've ramped up significantly the issue of border security.

Taking the continent as a whole, this religious tension may be responsible for the revival of the commonest racial feeling. africa is divided into black and white, and the names that are substituted- africa south of the sahara, africa north of the sahara- do not manage to hide this latent racism. here, it is affirmed that white africa has a thousand-year-old tradition of culture; that she is mediterranean, that she is a continuation of europe and that she shares in graeco-latin civilization. black africa is looked on as a region that is inert, brutal, uncivilized - in a word, savage.
Religious Latin Black And White
The characters in my novels are my own unrealized possibilities. that is why i am equally fond of them all and equally horrified by them. each one has crossed a border that i myself have circumvented. it is that crossed border (the border beyond which my own "i" ends) which attracts me most. for beyond that border begins the secret the novel asks about. this novel is not the author's confession; it is an investigation of human life in the trap the world has become.
Courage Character Discovery
Almost all wars, perhaps all, are trade wars connected with some material interest. they are always disguised as sacred wars, made in the name of god, or civilization or progress. but all of them, or almost all of the wars, have been trade wars.

I think that there is a particular mindset that was on display in the run-up to the iraq war that continues to this day. some of the folks who were involved in that decision either don't remember what they said or are entirely unapologetic about the results, but that views the middle east as a place where force and intimidation will deliver on the security interests that we have, and that it is not possible for us to at least test the possibility of diplomacy.
