When a young non-white male is stopped and searched at the whim of a police officer, his idea of personal space, privacy and self esteem are shattered, to say nothing of his Fourth and Fourteenth Amendment protections. The damage goes deep quickly an...
And now, since I've been governor since last January, I have written numerous letters to the administration in regards to securing our borders with absolutely no response. So we have been facing this crisis, and it's devastating the people of Arizona...
The morning was bright and propitious. Before their departure, mass had been said in the chapel, and the protection of St. Ignatius invoked against all contingent evils, but especially against bears, which, like the fiery dragons of old, seemed to ch...
The key is to forgive and let go of the hate, but never forget. Never forget so that you can protect yourself in the future. We can't always avoid everything and everyone who would hurt us--for that would be avoiding life. But we can be smarter..We c...
I always have my journal with me. It was handmade by a guy at the San Telmo market in Buenos Aires. If you go there he can make you one. It's leather and bronze and I'm able to replace the paper when it runs out. It has a lion on the cover that I say...
Solara: I didn't think you'd ever give up the book, I thought it was too important to you Eli: It was, I was carrying and reading it everyday, got so caught up in protecting it, I forgot to live by what I'd learnt from it Solara: And what's that? Eli...
Those who were molested or beaten as children or teenagers might later be vulnerable to sexual abuse or violence, because their natural impulses to protect themselves and protest (physical and verbal) were extinguished. Expectation of hurtful treatme...
We also must pull from our highest ideals of justice and protect against those ills that destabilized our economy - like predatory lending, over-leveraged financial institutions and the unchecked avarice of the past that trumped fairness and common s...
I think in television and film, it's not usually the child's point of view. It's the story of an adult. If there's a child in a drama or an action-adventure movie, they're someone who needs to be saved, someone who needs to be protected, or if they'r...
Intellectual-property rules are clearly necessary to spur innovation: if every invention could be stolen, or every new drug immediately copied, few people would invest in innovation. But too much protection can strangle competition and can limit what...
I ride my bike almost every day here in New York. It's getting safer to do so, but I do have to be fairly alert when riding on the streets as opposed to riding on the Hudson River bike path or similar protected lanes.
Do I wear a helmet? Ugh. I do when I'm riding through a precarious part of town, meaning Midtown traffic. But when I'm riding on secure protected lanes or on the paths that run along the Hudson or through Central Park - no, I don't wear the dreaded h...

Uther Pendragon: To kill and be king, is that all? Merlin: Perhaps not even that. Uther Pendragon: You strike me with words hard as steel! Merlin: You betrayed the Duke. You stole his wife. You took his castle. Now no one trusts you. You're not the o...
Vincent Mancini: Uncle Michael, listen - I know you're into banks and Wall Street, but everyone knows you're the final word, you're like the Supreme Court. All I want to do is protect you from these guys and your lawyers can't do that.
Lord Voldemort: Where will he be taken, the boy? Severus Snape: To a safe house. Most likely the home of someone in the Order. I've been told he's been given every mannerr of protection possible. Once there, it will be impractical to attack him.
One Stab: I thought Tristan would never live to be an old man. I was wrong about that. I was wrong about many things. It was those who loved him most who died young. He was a rock they broke themselves against however much he tried to protect them.
Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris: Yeah right, you're the smart one. You're the one learning Greek. Frankie Dunn: It's Gaelic. Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris: Well you just protected yourself out of a championship fight! How do you say that in Gaelic?
[the FBI saved Lester Cowans from a lynching] Anderson: You're lucky we've been watching your ass, Lester. Ward: If you go on the record, Mr. Cowans, we'll give you protection. If not... Anderson: If not, they're going to kill you anyway. [sniffs] An...
Tom Reagan: Think about what protecting Bernie gets us. Think about what offending Caspar loses us. Leo O'Bannion: Oh, come on, Tommy. You know I don't like to think. Tom Reagan: Yeah. Well, think about whether you should start.
Danny Witwer: He came to see you the other day right before he was tagged. What did you talk about? Lamar Burgess: The Mets. John doesn't think they have a deep enough pitching roster this year, and I'm inclined to... Danny Witwer: Why are you protec...
