Famous quotes containing the words face, recognition, grand and/or challenge:

    “After reading all that has been written, and after thinking all that can be thought, on the topics of God and the soul, the man who has a right to say that he thinks at all, will find himself face to face with the conclusion that, on these topics, the most profound thought is that which can be the least easily distinguished from the most superficial sentiment.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)

    “No democracy can long survive which does not accept as fundamental to its very existence the recognition of the rights of minorities.”
    —Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    “As in an icicle the agnostic abides alone. The vital principle is taken out of all endeavor for improving himself or bettering his fellows. All hope in the grand possibilities of life are blasted.”
    —Anna Julia Cooper (1859–1964)

    “I don’t have any problem with a reporter or a news person who says the President is uninformed on this issue or that issue. I don’t think any of us would challenge that. I do have a problem with the singular focus on this, as if that’s the only standard by which we ought to judge a president. What we learned in the last administration was how little having an encyclopedic grasp of all the facts has to do with governing.”
    —David R. Gergen (b. 1942)
