Our officials want nothing more than to be at the top of their professional game and make the correct call. That's what they do; that's their living, that's their pride, that's their joy. They don't achieve that because they happen to be human.

Our oil problems are only going to get worse. Our trade balance is only going to get worse. So we have to slow the growth of U.S. oil consumption, particularly imported oil consumption.
‐‐ Sherwood Boehlert
Our old age was in some respects the happiest period of life.
‐‐ Charles Eastman
Our old site did not have very good support for the disabled, but our new site should soon have much better support. With all of our content in divs now, we can hide all but the relevant chunks of content and navigation with a simple alternate CSS file.

Our only competition in the theater is boredom, because if I'm bored with a play, if I'm revolted by a play on stage, with the Broadway prices, especially today, I'm going to walk out and not come back and pay that price again.
‐‐ Jerome Lawrence
Our only goal is to strengthen the opposition and to avoid the dilemma whereby we only have the choice between Bashar Assad and al-Qaeda.
‐‐ Francois Hollande
Our only hope for America is that every conservative takes upon him or herself the project of learning what American and conservative values are, coming to understand what leftism stands for, and learning how to make the case for those values to women, young people, blacks and Hispanics.
‐‐ Dennis Prager
Our only hope is to control the vote.
‐‐ Medgar Evers
Our only president who has died as U.S. commander in chief in war is Franklin Delano Roosevelt - who died of a cerebral hemorrhage or massive stroke on April 12, 1945, only three weeks before the unconditional surrender of the German armed forces he had laid down as implacable Allied policy two years before.
‐‐ Nigel Hamilton
Our only real hope for democracy is that we get the money out of politics entirely and establish a system of publicly funded elections.
‐‐ Noam Chomsky
Our only responsibility is to live our own life and take care of our own children.
‐‐ Leon Kass
Our only security is our ability to change.
‐‐ John Lilly
Our only solace as writers is in the work itself, and perhaps also in a penchant for blissful ignorance that allows us to gamble, to risk, to keep going where others would tote up the odds and stop.
‐‐ Gayle Lynds
Our only weapons in this war of your lifetime are the weapons of the mind.
‐‐ Paul Tsongas
Our opinions become fixed at the point where we stop thinking.
‐‐ Ernest Renan
Our opponent and many in Congress criticized our decision to end the Iraq war.
‐‐ David Plouffe
Our opponents maintain that we are confronted with insurmountable political obstacles, but that may be said of the smallest obstacle if one has no desire to surmount it.
‐‐ Theodor Herzl
Our opportunities to do good are our talents.
‐‐ Cotton Mather
Our opposition to Trident is very clear, very firm, very long-standing, very principled, and we would seek to build an alliance to prevent the renewal of Trident.
‐‐ Nicola Sturgeon
Our original idea was to help three or four hundred candidates in the first election run for the Ohio State legislature and the California legislature around the country.
‐‐ Pete du Pont
Our original name was Wild Country, but when we first went to The Bowery, they had the name of all 50 states around the edge of the club, so we went to the sign that said 'Alabama' and stuck our band name underneath it.
‐‐ Randy Owen
Our - our friends can't trust us anymore. You know, Ukraine was a nuclear-armed state. They gave away their nuclear arms with the understanding that we would protect them. We won't even give them offensive weapons.
‐‐ Ben Carson
Our outrage at inequality is primal. But primal emotions are not always noble ones. Of course, when I see a colleague receive some award, I covet it. But this is not me at my best, and these are not the feelings we would instill and promote in our children.
‐‐ Sendhil Mullainathan
Our outward appearance is a reflection of what we are on the inside. Our lives reflect that for which we seek. And if with all our hearts we truly seek to know the Savior and to be more like Him, we shall be, for He is our divine, eternal Brother.
‐‐ Margaret D. Nadauld
Our overriding goal in restructuring our financial architecture should be that taxpayers never again have to save a failing financial institution.
‐‐ Henry Paulson
Our own genomes carry the story of evolution, written in DNA, the language of molecular genetics, and the narrative is unmistakable.
‐‐ Kenneth R. Miller
Our own heart, and not other men's opinions form our true honor.
‐‐ Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Our own physical body possesses a wisdom which we who inhabit the body lack. We give it orders which make no sense.
‐‐ Henry Miller
Our own relentless search for novelty and social status locks us into an iron cage of consumerism. Affluence has itself betrayed us.
‐‐ Tim Jackson
Our own self-love draws a thick veil between us and our faults.
‐‐ Philip Stanhope, 4th Earl of Chesterfield
Our own self-realization is the greatest service we can render the world.
‐‐ Ramana Maharshi
Our own sorrows seem heavy enough, even when lifted by certain long-term joys. But watching others hurt is the breaker of most any heart.
‐‐ Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Our own State Department polls say that 80 percent of Iraqis view the United States as an unpopular occupier.
‐‐ Marty Meehan
Our own theological Church, as we know, has scorned and vilified the body till it has seemed almost a reproach and a shame to have one, yet at the same time has credited it with power to drag the soul to perdition.
‐‐ Eliza Farnham
Our pain hides beneath these fluttering, random thoughts that run through our heads in an endless loop. But there's so much freedom in getting to know what's under there, the bedrock.
‐‐ Dani Shapiro
Our pain is a part of who we authentically are.

Our Palestinian brethren continue to be slaughtered at the hands of Israelis while the world turns the other cheek.
‐‐ Al-Waleed bin Talal
Our parents and grandparents understood this truth deeply. They believed - as we do - that to create jobs, a modern economy requires modern investments: educating, innovating and rebuilding for our children's future. Building an economy to last, from the middle class up, not from the billionaires down.
‐‐ Martin O'Malley
Our parents are obviously proud, but they're still trying to get used to the fact that we're in a band. I have a feeling my mom would actually like One Direction if I wasn't in it!
‐‐ Zayn Malik
Our parents came home one day and heard us, and they thought it was the radio, but our grandfather told them it was us.
‐‐ Barry Gibb
Our parents decided not to teach us Chinese. It was an era when they felt we would be better off if we didn't have that complication.
‐‐ Maya Lin
Our parents deserve our honor and respect for giving us life itself. Beyond this they almost always made countless sacrifices as they cared for and nurtured us through our infancy and childhood, provided us with the necessities of life, and nursed us through physical illnesses and the emotional stresses of growing up.
‐‐ Ezra Taft Benson
Our parents don't always know what's right. It's a new age.
‐‐ Stormzy
Our parents got divorced when I was 8 or 9.
‐‐ Jennifer Todd
Our parents have always encouraged us to be independent and dream big.
‐‐ Jenna Bush
Our parents have, by far, the greatest influence on shaping who we are and how we deal with the world.
‐‐ Mamie Gummer
Our parents more or less just kind of wanted us to pursue our passions. Whatever they would have been, they would have helped light the fire. They are very liberal, artistic people, but they didn't force us into acting. They let us find our own ways.
‐‐ John Cusack
Our parents provided us with the essentials, then got on with their own lives. Which makes me realise that my parents were brilliant, not for what they did, but more for what they didn't do.
‐‐ Rachel Johnson
Our parents were musicians.
