If it is true to say of the lazy that they kill time, then it is greatly to be feared that an era which sees its salvation in public opinion, this is to say private laziness, is a time that really will be killed.

Public opinion is a mysterious and invisible power, to which everything must yield. There is nothing more fickle, more vague, or more powerful; yet capricious as it is, it is nevertheless much more often true, reasonable, and just, than we imagine.

I was myself so smitten in public opinion that it was the almost universal view that my political life was at last ended.

I'm a role model for those who dare to be different. For those who dare to take a stand in their life and have an opinion.

I'd rather people love me or hate me than have no opinion of me. Indifference is scary.

Our opinions do not really blossom into fruition until we have expressed them to someone else.
