Warren Quotes

Soon after I returned to private practice, former Supreme Court Chief Justice Warren Burger called me one day. (Fred F. Fielding)
Warren and I are friends, but working with him had been difficult. View quote
Natalie Wood
It's really a question of fairness and what kind of country we're going to live in. There are 22,000 people making over $1 million. They're paying an effective tax rate in the teens. As Warren Buffett said, he pays less in taxes effectively than his secretary does. That's not right. View quote
David Plouffe
Warren Beatty has always acted like a Movie Star even when no one knew who he was. View quote
Dwayne Hickman
As a parent and a citizen, I'll take a Bill Gates (or Warren Buffett) over Steve Jobs every time. If we must have billionaires, better they should ignore Jobs's example and instead embrace the morality and wisdom of the great industrialist-philanthropist Andrew Carnegie. View quote
Eric Alterman
Well, Warren Harding, I have got you the presidency. What are you going to do with it? View quote
Florence Harding
The impression I have of Justice Warren is that he was looking for the just result in a case regardless of fixed dogma or principles and I like to think that I'm in that mold. View quote
Harold H. Greene
At least once a year, I meet with a group called the Giving Pledge. It's a group of billionaires - including me, Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, and Ted Turner - who have pledged to give away most of their money to charity. We meet for three days to talk about what we're doing to help make the planet a better place to live. View quote
John Paul DeJoria
One of the first things we found out was that the Warren Commission never pursued a conspiracy investigation. View quote
Louis Stokes
Unfortunately, from time to time, the criticism of the court goes beyond the bounds of civil debate and discourse. Today it seems quite acceptable to attack the court and other institutions when one disagrees with an opinion or policy. I can still remember traveling along Highway 17 in south Georgia, the Coastal Highway, during the fifties and sixties, and seeing the 'Impeach Earl Warren' signs. View quote
Clarence Thomas
I knew Earl Warren very well, on a somewhat professional basis. Professional, as in I was a nine-year-old page boy and he was the Governor. We knew his children and played in the Governor's Mansion and so forth. I have a letter I've given to the Supreme Court Historical Society, in which he wrote and said, "You're going to go very far in government." I'm very proud of the fact that I knew well someone who later became the Chief Justice of the United States. (Anthony Kennedy)
I think it's quite extraordinary that people cast me as if I'm Warren Beatty: until I met my present wife, at the age of 35, you could name two girlfriends. View quote
Colin Firth
You have now in the field armies sufficient to repel the whole force of your enemies and their base and mercenary auxiliaries. The hearts of your soldiers beat high with the spirit of freedom; they are animated with the justice of their cause, and while they grasp their swords can look up to Heaven for assistance. Your adversaries are composed of wretches who laugh at the rights of humanity, who turn religion into derision, and would, for higher wages, direct their swords against their leaders or their country. Go on, then, in your generous enterprise, with gratitude to Heaven for past, success, and confidence of it in the future. For my own part, I ask no greater blessing than to share with you the common danger and common glory. If I have a wish dearer to my soul than that my ashes may be mingled with those of a Warren and a Montgomery, it is that these American States may never cease to be free and independent. View quote
Samuel Adams
Warren Beatty took an interest in my career at one point. View quote
Courtney Love
Cooper: Did you use that $916 million loss to avoid paying personal federal income taxes for years? Trump: Of course I do. Of course I do. And so do all of her donors, or most of her donors. ... I pay tremendous numbers of taxes. I absolutely used it. And so did Warren Buffett and so did George Soros and so did many of the other people that Hillary is getting money from. View quote
Donald Trump
Names are still magic; even Sharon, Karen, Darren, and Warren are magic to somebody somewhere. In fairy stories, naming is knowledge. When I know your name, I can call your name, and when I call your name, you'll come to me. View quote
Jeanette Winterson
We contrast the urban and the natural, but that's a contemporary myth. We're animals, after all; our cities are organic products, fully as "natural” (whatever that word really means) as a termite hill or a rabbit warren. But how much more interesting: how much more complex, dressed in the intricacies and exfoliations of human culture, simple patterns iterated into infinite variation. And full of secrets, secrets beyond counting. View quote
Robert Charles Wilson
I told Warren if he mentions Prop. 13 one more time, he has to do 500 push-ups. View quote
Arnold Schwarzenegger
the only man woman or child who wrote a simple declarative sentence with seven grammatical errors "is dead” beautiful Warren Gamaliel Harding "is” dead he's "dead”. View quote
E. E. Cummings
Warren Buffett, one of the richest guys in the world, openly admits that his effective tax rate is lower than his secretary's. It's time to tell the billionaire class that if they want to enjoy the benefits of America, they have to accept their responsibilities, and they have to start paying their fair share of taxes. View quote
Bernie Sanders
The world has become one big grassy knoll, crawling with lone gunmen who think they're the Warren Commission. (Ken MacLeod)
I've always wanted to work with Warren Beatty. View quote
Quentin Tarantino
Rick Warren: The issue to me, I'm not opposed to that as much as I'm opposed to redefinition of a 5,000 year definition of marriage. I'm opposed to having a brother and sister being together and calling that marriage. I'm opposed to an older guy marrying a child and calling that marriage. I'm opposed to one guy having multiple wives and calling that marriage. Steven Waldman: Do you think, though, that they are equivalent to having gays getting married? Rick Warren: Oh, I do. View quote
Rick Warren
Larry King: So you did ask your people who worship with you to vote that way? Rick Warren: Yeah, I just never campa- I never campaigned for it. I never - I'm not an anti-gay activist - never have been. Never participated in a single event. I just simply made a note in a newsletter, and of course, everything I write, it's the road. View quote
Rick Warren
One of the stated objectives [of the Warren Commission] was to calm the fears of the people about a conspiracy. But in our country, the government has no right to calm our fears, any more than it has, for example, the right to excite our fears about Red China, or about fluoridation, or about birth control, or about anything. There's no room in America for thought control of any kind, no matter how benevolent the objective. Personally, I don't want to be calm about the assassination of John F. Kennedy. I don't want to be calm about a president of my country being shot down in the streets. View quote
Jim Garrison
