I have taken my flight in the region of eagles; when I alight, it must be on a rock, and that rock must be a constitutional government, of which I shall be the head so long as I shall be among men.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
For myself, therefore, I desire to declare that the principle that will govern me in the high duty to which my country calls me is a strict adherence to the letter and spirit of the Constitution as it was designed by those who framed it.
I must uphold my ideals, for perhaps the time will come when I shall be able to carry them out.
I am Eagle! I am Eagle!
When we live up to our Constitution, let's form a Conga line around the Capitol and bungee jump off the dome.
Standing here in a house of history, and acutely aware of my own imperfections, I pledge that if I am confirmed I will do all my powers permit to be a faithful servant of the Constitution and laws of this great country.
If I were an animal, I would be an eagle.
You can put wings on a pig, but you don't make it an eagle.
You cannot fly like an eagle with the wings of a wren.
The eagle has no fear of adversity. We need to be like the eagle and have a fearless spirit of a conqueror!
You know, I'm an eagle, flying around in the mountains.
