Quote

I don't believe songs that try to say everything in a simple slogan.

It's very easy to have slogans and rhetoric that people will follow, but eventually the slogans fall away.

And it was under Wilson that the first great propaganda slogan was coined and emblazoned everywhere, to make Americans start thinking favorably of democracies and forget that we had a republic.

I object to teaching of slogans intended to befog the mind, of whatever kind they may be.

Our major obligation is not to mistake slogans for solutions.

Ours is the age of substitutes: instead of language, we have jargon: instead of principles, slogans: and, instead of genuine ideas, bright ideas.

Our country's motto is e pluribus unum: out of many, we are one. Will we stay true to that motto?

Success listens only to applause. To all else it is deaf.

Hear only the things you should hear - be deaf to others.

I hope I inspire people who hear. Hearing people have the ability to remove barriers that prevent deaf people from achieving their dreams.
