“That's what I like to call him, "the current president." I find it difficult to say or type his name, George W. Bush. I like to call him "the current president" because it's a hopeful phrase, implying that his administration is only temporary.”

“This occasion is dedicated to freedom. The people of Baltimore, and of Maryland, are gathered here in that spirit. Because Americans cherish that sentiment they cherish the name of Lafayette. On the anniversary of his birth, we are gathered about his statue in this proud city which we know he loved, almost in the shadow of the stately monument reared to his great friend Washington, to rededicate ourselves to the inspiring memory of a true son of world freedom.”

“[I]n many respects fascism not only is here but has been here for nearly a century. For what we call liberalism--the refurbished edifice of American Progressivism--is in fact a descendant and manifestation of fascism… Progressivism was a sister movement of fascism, and today's liberalism is the daughter of Progressivism.”

Jonah Goldberg (1969) American political writer and pundit

“Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
2 get through this thing called life.Electric word life
It means forever and that's a mighty long time
But I'm here 2 tell U
There's something else:
The afterworld.A world of never ending happiness
U can always see the sun, day or night.”

Prince (1958–2016) American pop, songwriter, musician and actor
