3 quotes

  1. My wife has been killed by a machine which should never have come into the hands of any human being. It is called a firearm. It makes the blackest of all human wishes come true at once, at a distance: that something die. There is evil for you. We cannot get rid of mankind's fleetingly evil wishes. We can get rid of the machines that make them come true. I give you a holy word: DISARM.

  3. So let's give another big tax cut to the super-rich. That'll teach bin Laden a lesson he won't soon forget.
