The 2008 Democratic presidential candidates would be wise to note that unwarranted negativism is dangerous and badly underestimates the strengths of the American people to adapt to and prosper with change.

I think sometimes we seem to obsess on negativity.

While negativity is politically useful, it is also demoralizing unless it is accompanied - and to some extent overshadowed - by elevated and inspiring ideas about the American future.

The media dwells mostly on negativity.

To recognize negativism as a force of creation is to give up the creative standpoint altogether.

Negativity doesn't help me.

I get tired of negativity in our country. I get tired of people who only want to know dirt. I get tired of people who don't believe in themselves.

I think there's an enormous value to being negative. The world we live in today, negativity is not permitted.

I think we manifest the very thing we put out. If you're putting out negativity, then you're going to retrieve that same sentiment. If you emanate joy, it comes back to you.

There has been a shift to what may be defined as a culture of negativity which goes well beyond coverage of politics.
