We are special because we've been united not by a common race or ethnicity. We're bound together by common values. That family is the most important institution in society. That almighty God is the source of all we have.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My family's story isn't special. What's special is the America that makes our story possible. Ours is a nation like no other, a place where great journeys can be made in a single generation. No matter who you are or where you come from, the path is always forward.
We all want to be special, to stand out; there's nothing wrong with this. The irony is that every human being is special to start with, because we're unique to start with. But we then go through some sort of boot camp from the age of zero to about 18 where we learn everything we can about how not to be unique.
If everything is the same, nothing is special.
I believe in individuality, that everybody is special, and it's up to them to find that quality and let it live.
It is my belief that we all have the need to feel special. It is this need that can bring out the best in us, yet the worst in us.
America is truly special because it's founded on an idea. It's the ideological and philosophical equivalent of a formless God, in other words, you know? It's, again, the only great country in the world that it is formed out of words.
Mankind is not special by virtue of our address in the universe, or what spins around us, or because life originated here. Slowly, but surely, we've been compelled to renounce the comfort of these beliefs.
I'm not special, no more special than anybody else.
We are not special. We are not crap or trash, either. We just are. We just are, and what happens just happens.
My family do not think I'm special - not one, one bit.
