Everyone is so afraid of having a school tagged as dangerous. I tell them to take ownership. The longer you point fingers, the longer we'll not resolve this problem.

It is amazing that while Congress pumps homeland security money into protecting airports and their own Capitol Hill offices, they are simultaneously cutting funding to protect our nation's most valuable resources - the students and teachers in our schools.

It's dangerous down there. I'm afraid to turn my back on those guys.

The problem with hitters I think was they weren't sure who he (Pedro) wanted to hit. And he wasn't afraid to hit anybody.

Only when we are no longer afraid do we begin to live.

Revolutions are celebrated when they are no longer dangerous.
