Being in your forties - any woman who isn't there yet, I just have to say to you: Euphoria is coming to you.
We insist on celebrating lone heroic path-finders, but even the most admired and the most successful inventors are part of a more remarkable supply chain of innovators who are largely ignored for the simpler mythology of one man or one eureka moment.
The Italians, who used to be a great motor-manufacturing power, have been absolutely destroyed by the euro - as was intended by the Germans.
Germany benefits the most from the European Union because Germany is, by far, the biggest exporter into the Euro Zone, and therefore, it benefits. And one who benefits the most must take the biggest responsibility.
European countries simply do not have the ideological framework the United States has in the shape of the 'American dream' that has helped to absorb successfully wave after wave of immigration to the States, including Muslim Americans who are well integrated into American society. There is no analogous French dream or German dream.
I'm one of many who have seen their parents and their friends lose their jobs, lose their income, lose their livelihood because of the European Union.

Certainly, every student and school ought to have standards and evaluation, but who sets those standards, and who writes the test? Whoever controls the test controls the school.
Evangelical Christians, who once were a ridiculed irrelevant sectarian movement, have, over just three decades, become a powerful voting bloc that can no longer be ignored.
An evangelical is somebody who, first of all, has a very high view of Scripture, believes it's an infallible message from God.
The reason I love Luis Palau is because this is a guy who is completely all about evangelism and reaching people and the lost with the gospel.
If we did not have a sense of who we were, how we got here, why we want to achieve something - which, on the face of it, on the logic of it, is probably not worth trying - and prove that logic wrong, then you wouldn't succeed; then you would just evaporate.
No one ever teaches well who wants to teach, or governs well who wants to govern.
Every nation has to either be with us, or against us. Those who harbor terrorists, or who finance them, are going to pay a price.
This is the miracle that happens every time to those who really love: the more they give, the more they possess.
