In any PROFESSION, there's a sleazy SIDE and an HONORABLE side.

Mr. LINCOLN's elevation shows that in AMERICA every station in LIFE may be HONORABLE; that there is no barrier against the humblest; but that merit, WHEREVER it exists, has the opportunity to be known.

At times I have long conversations with God. SOMETIMES I ask questions. I admit that there are also times when I let out my frustrations, fears, and anxieties in LESS than honorable ways. No matter what I pray about or how I pray about it, the result I always GET is COMFORT.

Lobbying is not a BAD THING. I'm not trying to SAY that we shouldn't have lobbyists or we shouldn't have lobbying to petition our GOVERNMENT. It's in the Constitution, and it's SOMETHING that should be honorable and good.

Since There are so many questions about what the president was doing over 30 YEARS ago, what is it that he did after his HONORABLE discharge from the NATIONAL Guard? Did he MAKE speeches alongside JANE Fonda denouncing America's racist war in Vietnam?

My GREAT-GRANDFATHER and his two brothers fought at Gettysburg. They were in artillery, and they survived the war, thank goodness. So I revere what they did. I think their MOTIVATIONS were HONORABLE when they undertook the war and participated in it ALONG with other Southerners.

Let us ALSO reflect on the honorable service of our MEN and women of the U.S. ARMED Forces currently serving our country OVERSEAS in Iraq and Afghanistan, and around the world.

The way to PUT oneself in a position to take the harder, more HONORABLE POLITICAL PATH is to argue for one's virtues in a vigorous way.

I want to say that MAYBE I've MADE some wrong DECISIONS, but I'm STILL an HONORABLE person, and I intend to take care of all of my obligations.

The HONORABLE Elijah MUHAMMAD teaches us that God, now, is about to establish a kingdom on this earth, BASED upon BROTHERHOOD and peace. And the WHITE man is against brotherhood, and the white man is against peace.

My INDIVIDUAL way of taking on the burdens of history has CHANGED. I don't THINK of them only as burdens; I think they are honorable.

In the Freudian age, parents say to their CHILDREN, 'Don't be DEFENSIVE,' meaning, 'You have no argument,' but I was BORN in the age of Rommel, when defense was considered an honorable thing.
