I am convinced that proverb

 I am convinced that the majority of American people do understand that we have a moral responsibility to foster the concepts of opportunity, free enterprise, the rule of law, and democracy. They understand that these values are the hope of the world.

 The Hispanic dream -- the hope of a better future -- is the American dream. Hispanic values are American values. The values of opportunity, fairness and community are also Democratic values. While, more than ever before, Hispanic-Americans are enjoying the benefits of the middle class, the Bush Administration is leaving them behind. Republicans are undermining the values of hope and opportunity, but we will not let them divide us.

 Next to inflation, majority rule is the most ingenious scheme ever contrived by government. Most people have never dared to question the basic morality or logic in the assumption that the majority should have power over the minority. A majority of the people in the South once believed in black slavery. Did that make it moral? A lynch mob is majority rule stripped of its fancy trappings and its facade of respectability. In a community where homosexuals outnumber heterosexuals, should the majority have the right to outlaw sex between married partners of the opposite sex? In a community where atheists outnumber non- atheists, should the majority have the right to outlaw the practice of religion? ... a dictatorship allows only a small number of people to interfere with the rights of others, a democracy makes it possible for great numbers of people to impose their will on others -- through the force of government. Is an act of aggression more right if carried out by the majority than by a dictator? Since approxima

 'First Democracy,' ... is about the ideas that guided the Athenians in their efforts to build toward a perfect democracy. Without a firm grasp of these ideas, we will not understand democracy. And unless we understand democracy, we will be led astray by its doubles.

 We believe that what matters most is not narrow appeals masquerading as values, but the shared values that show the true face of America; not narrow values that divide us, but the shared values that unite us: family, faith, hard work, opportunity and responsibility for all, so that every child, every adult, every parent, every worker in America has an equal shot at living up to their God-given potential. That is the American dream and the American value.
  Senator John Kerry

 We understand that we are asking people to understand complex concepts.

 Decadence is a difficult word to use since it has become little more than a term of abuse applied by critics to anything they do not yet understand or which seems to differ from their moral concepts.
  Ernest Hemingway

 I would hope that is not the case. I hope the people of the United Arab Emirates and the government will understand that in a democracy, there is a process of debate.

 Not having been born in this country, but then moving on to citizenship, I understand the plight of immigrants. I understand what this has been about. I also understand about the rule of law, and I respect that.

 They're fine people. I understand what they're going through. This is the world of democracy.

 I would feel the same way if I was the GM or the owner. I totally understand them. But I hope they understand me, too, that there's big pressure on me from Sweden to go over and play. I hope (Snider) understands that I play hockey to win. And I am proud to represent my country, and if I can, I will. I would not go if I didn't feel 100 percent because I know who's paying my salary and I have a responsibility here.

 I believe in democracy being for everybody, and I know there's a lot of people who don't understand politics so I'm just trying to bring them into my world.
  Will Durst

 It is commercial pop that the majority of people understand. A working man's daughter would not understand blues.

 At a time when American soldiers around the world risk their lives to protect America from the many threats we face, it is more important than ever that our young people understand the history and values that have guided America through its difficult times in the past and ensured this nation's continuing prosperity.

 All I care is that my family, and my loved ones, understand me. Or that they understand me to a degree-I don't understand me very much. And I don't need the world to understand me. That is the most egocentric thing.
