More From Bob Dole

Each religion is a brave guess at the authorship of hamlet. yet, as far as the play goes, does it make any difference whether shakespeare or bacon wrote it? would it make any difference to the actors if their parts happened out of nothingness, if they found themselves acting on the stage because of some gross and unpardonable accident? would it make any difference if the playwright gave them the lines or whether they composed them themselves, so long as the lines were properly spoken? would it make any difference to the characters if 'a midsummer night's dream' was really a dream?
God Dream Character
Own what you are, and i mean whether that's art, or whether that's fashion, or whether that's music, or whether that's acting, or whether that's politics, or whether that's literature; it's own what you are, and grab it, and, you know, be as prolific as possible.

I am ready to talk today. i have been in a great many councils, but i am no wiser. we are all sprung from a woman, although we are unlike in many things. we can not be made over again. you are as you were made, and as you were made you can remain. we are just as we were made by the great spirit, and you can not change us ; then why should children of one mother and one father quarrel ? — why should one try to cheat the other ? i do not believe that the great spirit chief gave one kind of men the right to tell another kind of men what they must do.

There is nothing -- absolutely nothing -- half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats. in or out of 'em, it doesn't matter. nothing seems really to matter, that's the charm of it. whether you get away, or whether you don't; whether you arrive at your destination or whether you reach somewhere else, or whether you never get anywhere at all, you're always busy, and you never do anything in particular; and when you've done it there's always something else to do, and you can do it if you like, but you'd much better not.

If i have one message to give to the secular american people, it's that the world is not divided into countries. the world is not divided between east and west. you are american, i am iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. the difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. and the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. and our governments are very much the same.
Country Government Differences
In this country, it doesn't make any difference where you were born. it doesn't make any difference who your parents were. it doesn't make any difference if, like me, you couldn't even speak english until you were in your twenties.

For an american to be patriotic is to be loyal to the principles of our constitution, and the first amendment. the truth is that the policies of the government is sometimes in conflict with that. in our country, patriotism should not be defined as obedience to an authority.

Do you realize how many people of this country have been educated, have grown up, who have been taught that, yeah, we're at risk and there's a lot of people that want to blow us up and don't like us. but we are to blame. that's what they've been taught. we are to blame, 'cause there was slavery, because we've stolen all these goods and resources from other countries. we have imposed our way of life on them! we've sent our military around, and we've conducted wars on their territory and so forth.

He [alan lomax] started right off trying to find people who could introduce folk songs to city people. he found a young actor named burl ives and said, "burl, you know a lot of great country songs learned from your grandmother, don't you know people would love to hear them?" he put on radio programs. he persuaded cbs to dedicate "the school of the air" for one year to american folk music. he'd get some old sailor to sing an old sea shanty with a cracked voice. then he'd get me to sing it with my banjo.
