Famous quotes containing the words temple and/or president:

    One sorry fret,
    An anvill Sparke, rose higher,
    And in thy Temple falling, almost set
    The house on fire.
    Such fireballs dropping in the Temple Flame
    Burns up the building: Lord, forbid the same.
    Edward Taylor (1645–1729)

    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)
