Being against other people's policies eventually puts you in a downward spiral. It's fine to be principled and oppose views that you don't agree with, but you also have to have an alternative.

We are just going to keep at it, ... We have no alternative. It's not just to protect private property. It's our lifeblood.

There's a fine line between stubbornness and the positive side of that, which is dogged determination.

I don't believe you outsource your convictions and principles to people.

If I'm a conservative, I'll generally watch Fox. If someone's liberal, they'll generally watch MSNBC. They'll basically learn a set of facts that are completely distinct from one another. They'll get their views validated.

It's been painful to see the people that you love be attacked when you know it's not fair or true.
