Distress Quotes
[The eruption of the flag controversy is a glaring symptom of a distressing change in American politics over the past decade: the way that pit-bull negative ads have led to simplistic, visceral posturing by candidates at the expense of more substantive approaches to real problems.] It's a good issue to define your opponent... If your opponent is for flag burning, he's got to go through a very sophisticated explanation.

(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.) / Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed: / But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses, / In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings; / By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned, / By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left, / By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true; / As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed; / As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
