"It doesn’t take a lot of strength to hang on. It takes a lot of strength to let go." ― J. C. Watts Topic(s): Strength More From J. C. Watts "Republicans and Democrats have used accounting gimmicks and competing government analyses to deceive the public into believing that 2 + 2 = 6. If our leaders cannot agree on the numbers, if ‘facts’ are fictional, how can they possibly have a substantive debate on solutions?" "The measure of a man is not how great his faith is, but how great his love is. We must not let government programs disconnect our souls from each other." "The strength of America is not in Washington."
