I don’t claim to be a methodologist, but I act like one only because I do methodology to protect myself from crazy methodologists.
Ward Cunningham
Overcome your guilt. Care, but not too much. Take responsibility, but don’t blame yourself. Protect, save, help- but know when to give up. They’re precarious ledges to walk. How do I do it?
Brandon Sanderson
Before WeWork, I had a baby clothing company. When I started out, I had no real contacts in the garment business and no mentor to guide me on how things worked. I just had an idea to put pads on the baby clothes on to protect the baby’s knees.
Adam Neumann
We may form free constitutions, but our vices will destroy them; we may enact laws, but they will not protect us.
Lyman Beecher
Is the economy going to collapse if we continue down this road? Yes. Should Americans be self-reliant? Yes. Absolutely. … I think loving our neighbors is being prepared to give them food. Loving our neighbors is being prepared to protect them.
Matt Shea
Normal fear protects us; abnormal fear paralyses us. Normal fear motivates us to improve our individual and collective welfare; abnormal fear constantly poisons and distorts our inner lives. Our problem is not to be rid of fear but, rather to harness and master it.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
The coal industry has helped fuel this Nation for 150 years, and coal can be used to heat our homes, power our economy, and protect our Nation for at least another 150 years if we continue to use it.
Tim Murphy
It happens that I’m heterosexual, but I don’t care about that. I do care about protecting the rights of 10 percent of our population who are homosexual and who don’t have the ability to protect their rights.
Ed Koch
I watch her blond head until it disappears around the bend, and I feel bare, like there’s nothing left to protect me against pain. Her absence stings worst of all.
Veronica Roth
What is Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton done to this country? That the most basic responsibility of an administration is to protect the safety and security of the American people.
Chris Christie
You cannot, for instance, sustainably protect the environment if the majority of the people are still in primitive agriculture leading to the encroachment of forest reserves.
Yoweri Museveni
I don’t like seeing you cry. You will stop.” I’ll give you a promise,” he said gruffly. “And then you will cease your worrying.” You will have confidence in my ability to protect you,” he ordered. You will have faith in me. I command it.
Julie Garwood
Parents – and teachers too – are woefully short-sighted when they try to protect the child from his mistakes, when they make the “right answer” more important than the quest for knowledge and good judgment. For what is not learned within one’s self cannot be learned from another.
Sydney J. Harris
Amid attempts to protect elephants from ivory poachers and dolphins from tuna nets, the rights of children go remarkably unremarked.
Anna Quindlen
I want to protect and preserve social security and Medicare.

Benjamin Carson
The power of intuitive understanding will protect you from harm until the end of your days.
Lao Tzu
My dad taught me from my youngest childhood memories through these connections with Aboriginal and tribal people that you must always protect people’s sacred status, regardless of the past.

It’s time that we recognize the Supreme Court is not the supreme being, and we change the policy to be pro-life and protect children instead of rip up their body parts and sell them like they’re parts to a Buick.
Mike Huckabee
The essential function of the State is to maintain peace, justice, law, and order, and to protect the individual citizen against aggression, violence, theft, and fraud.

Christopher A. Wray
The establishment’s gonna come together to protect themselves regardless of ideology.
Rush Limbaugh

Dominic Grieve
Relying on the government to protect your privacy is like asking a peeping tom to install your window blinds.
John Perry Barlow
I think most important, you need to have the compassion and caring for helping to protect vulnerable people.

Russ Feingold
Protect your voice and your vision. If going on the Internet and reading Internet reviews is bad for you, don’t do it. … Do what gets you to write and not what blocks you. … Don’t take any guff off anybody.
Anne Rice
The auto industry must acknowledge that a rational transportation policy should seek a balance between individual convenience, the efficient use of limited resources, and urban-living values that protect spaciousness, natural beauty, and human-scale mobility.
Stewart Udall
Our constitution protects aliens, drunks and U.S. Senators.
Will Rogers
No nation, savage or civilized, save only the United States В of America, has confessed its inability to protect its women save by hanging, shooting, and burning alleged offenders
Ida B. Wells
The Free Exercise Clause protects the individual from any coercive measure that encourages him toward one faith or creed, discourages him from another, or makes it prudent or desirable for him to select one and embrace it.
William O. Douglas
I was sent to boarding school at the age of ten. I think Mummy was trying to protect me in her own way, trying to spare me living through the day-to-day reality of her illness.
Lysette Anthony
Son, a man’d brand
Is his own special mark
That says this is mine, leave it alone.
You hire out to a man,
Ride for his brand
And protect it like it was your own.
Red Steagall
It is a dangerous notion that we need a government to protect us from ourselves.
Ron Paul
I think the people should have a right to boycott whoever they want to boycott without the government making them into criminals and try to protect corporations from people. They should protect people from corporations.
Ziggy Marley
down the sidewalk
where laborers feed their dirty
glistening torsos sandwiches
and Coca-Cola, with yellow helmets
on. They protect them from falling
bricks, I guess.
Frank O’Hara
Gotta protect the little dudes. I tried an AK-47, but it wouldn’t fit under my seat. I like the Uzi better, anyway. It looks better with the dress. The AK seems too casual to me
Janet Evanovich
I think we need to get to the bottom of it. And I think there should be an investigation [of hackers attacks] because in order to defend ourselves against other adversarial countries, we have to protect our information.
Rand Paul
I have declared war on the rich who prosper on our poverty, the politicians who lie to us with smiling faces, and all the mindless, heartless, robots who protect them and their property.
Assata Shakur
I think we have a moral obligation to our children that can be easily summarized: number one, protect them from harm.
Tom Allen
They’re a lot of great scientists and their mission is to protect people. It’s the Environmental Protection Agency, but it’s really a people protection agency. And they’re out there trying to do their job and do the science.
Josh Fox
Horses were a way to travel to get to where we are today, and it is our job to protect them.
Willie Nelson
The daily employment of cunning marks a little mind, it generally happens that those who resort to it in one respect to protect themselves lay themselves open to attack in another.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld
I was a kid that loved reptiles and eventually started an organization dedicated to saving turtles and tortoises, called the Turtle Conservancy, where we protect land and basically do species conservation around the world.
Eric Goode
What’s the most critical factor in any business decision you’ll ever have to make? Basically, it boils down to this question: If this all crashes, will it bring the whole house tumbling down like a pack of cards? One business matra remains embedded in my brain – protect the downside.
Richard Branson
The political function of ‘the right of free speech’ is to protect dissenters and unpopular minorities from forcible suppression – not to guarantee them the support, advantages, and rewards of a popularity they have not gained.
Ayn Rand
Whether it has been supporting Corby’s new free school, or fighting for the truth on the Cube overspend and land development deals, or striving to protect the East Northamptonshire countryside, in my work as the local MP I have always been struck, as I said in my maiden speech, by the pride people have in our area.
Louise Mensch
We cannot look at Syria, and the evil that has arisen from the ashes of indecision, and think this is not the lowest point in the world’s inability to protect and defend the innocent.
Angelina Jolie
We must elevate the craft, protect its interests, advance wages, reduce the hours of labor, spread correct economic doctrines and cultivate a spirit of fraternity among the working people regardless of creed, color, nationality or politics. These principles are the foundation principles of our organization.
Peter J. McGuire
Having a daughter has reawakened my sense of feminism. I want to protect her.
Abi Morgan
Government’s first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives.
Ronald Reagan
It’s pretty ironic that the so-called ‘least advanced’ people are the ones taking the lead in trying to protect all of us, while the richest and most powerful among us are the ones who are trying to drive the society to destruction.
Noam Chomsky
Having a daughter makes you see things in a different way. This is my only girl. So I don’t care what it takes to protect her. You can call it what you want to call it. As long as you treat her the same way I treat her, like my princess, I don’t mind.
Tracy Morgan
When you then establish the law that says you can’t discriminate against people who are homosexual, what you’re really saying is you’re putting the power of law behind the idea that these are people who cannot change and therefore we must protect them from other people who disagree with them.
Scott Lively
What would be wrong with letting a kid go pro, and if it doesn’t work out he can come back to college? What’s the harm in that? The reason is the word “amateurism.” The NCAA has to protect colleges’ tax exemption.
Sonny Vaccaro
Grammar and logic free language from being at the mercy of the tone of voice. Grammar protects us against misunderstanding the sound of an uttered name; logic protects us against what we say have double meaning.
Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy
I think I will always have a connection to young people, to try to bring their voices to the polls, bring their voices wherever they can make a difference. Even to protect their own interests or the interests of the planet or the animals or other individuals, which is critical. I try to keep it.
Russell Simmons
Anti-Americanism from abroad would not be such a problem if Americans were united in standing up for their own country.
Dinesh D’Souza
Fundamental rights are not a given today. We have to protect them.
Vera Jourova
I have an optimism about what people are willing to do. The greatest force in the world today, believe it or not, are these countless groups of people in every country almost… that are doing things to protect their local environment and to try and protect the earth.
Peter Cundall
Why do the Gods make kings and queens if not to protect the ones who can’t protect themselves?
George R. R. Martin
Our God-given right to protect our country, ourselves and our families shouldn’t be up for debate.

You cant reach old age by another man’s road, my habits protect my life but they would assassinate you
Mark Twain
Being a gay American, I know what it means to look at the flag and not have it protect all of your liberties.
Megan Rapinoe
Aggressive and irresponsible steps endanger the peace and stability of the world, and the international community feels the need to protect itself from Iran.
Moshe Katsav
Keeping covenants protects us, prepares us, & empowers us.
Rosemary M. Wixom
To wait, to patiently sit in the dark without knowing what the outcome will be, to protect and respect that which has yet no clear form – all these are aspects of the womb.
Jalaja Bonheim
The answer doesn’t lie in learning how to protect ourselves from life-it lies in learning how to become strong enough to let a bit more of it in.
Merle Shain
It is a wonderful honor to receive the Audubon Medal from the National Audubon Society, which for more than a century has fought tirelessly to protect and preserve our natural resources and environment for future generations.
Louis Bacon
Now, I will say, most American companies – most are run by honorable patriotic people who care about their employees and communities. But there are still too many powerful interests fighting to protect their own profits and privileges at the expense of everyone else.
Hillary Clinton
Every legislative limitation upon utterance, however valid, may in a particular case serve as an inroad upon the freedom of speech which the Constitution protects.
Stanley Forman Reed
We have military bases all over the world, and that’s purely to protect our portfolio abroad.Our investments, and our production, our exploitation of cheap labor and raw materials. We’re on the scene to do that, and the military is there to see that it happens.
Philip Berrigan
I’m in favor of building the fence, and doing everything technologically to protect our borders. But the other way to secure the border, and one of the things we must do, is put in place good guest-worker programs that employers can actually use.
David Rouzer
Almost all gun control legislation is constitutionally fine. And, if the court is right, then fundamentalism does not justify the view that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to bear arms.
Cass Sunstein
We’ve got to abide by the rules. We have to protect it. The game of golf at a professional level is so clean. We are our own judge, jury and executioner. If we don’t do what we think is right, the game might get away from us.
Greg Norman
What I would like to see is for people to come together and say: Of course we’re going to protect and defend the Second Amendment. But we’re going to do it in a way that tries to save some of these 33,000 lives that we lose every year.
Hillary Clinton
What’s great about the geek spirit is that life never seems to stop us, and they never seem to kill our enthusiasm, our optimism and our hunger to experience the world. We keep our sense of humor, we protect our dignity, we talk to our friends about the experience and then we start again fresh the very next day.
Paul Feig
Suspicion is a heavy armor and with its weight it impedes more than it protects.
Robert Burns
There’s always got to be room for what you might call benign corruption. Nobody blames a man who steals food to feed his starving children, but on the other hand, somebody who picks up a badge and takes an oath to serve and protect; we do expect a certain level of essential honesty.
Denzel Washington
Billionaire investors know they’re going to be wrong, so they have a plan to protect against wrong.

Kiersten White
When something’s wrong, even though you’re the one doing it, you shouldn’t feel defensive about it. It’s hard because you have to protect yourself as a person in your life, but you can’t protect yourself as an actor. You have to just take criticism.
Jess Weixler
These funds will ensure that ports will be able to pay for adequate security measures to protect all Americans against terrorist attacks from our seaports.
Bobby Scott
I always have my journal with me. It was handmade by a guy at the San Telmo market in Buenos Aires. If you go there he can make you one. It’s leather and bronze and I’m able to replace the paper when it runs out. It has a lion on the cover that I say is there to protect my thoughts.
Blake Mycoskie
I am here to love you, to hold you in my arms, to protect you.
Nicholas Sparks
To protect America’s security, we are going to have to pull America’s military out of the swamp of Washington politics.
Mac Thornberry
Well, the hardest thing to do, as we know from our own experience on 9/11 is protect everything all the time.
John Abizaid
Landholders ought to have a share in the government to support these invaluable interests and check the other many. They ought to be so constituted as to protect the minority of the opulent against the majority.
James Madison
Democrats believe we must create jobs, not protect the special interests; build the economy from the middle out, not the top down.
Nancy Pelosi
There’s no evidence that I’m aware of that guns protect liberty.
Alan Dershowitz
Develop and protect a moral sensibility and demonstrate the character to apply it. Dream big. Work hard. Think for yourself. Love everything you love, everyone you love, with all your might. And do so, please, with a sense of urgency, for every tick of the clock subtracts from fewer and fewer…
David McCullough
Every child’s life is sacred and it is long past time that we protect it.
Marian Wright Edelman
Our laws must protect victims.
Theresa May
I vowed to our countrymen that I would do everything I could to protect the American people… That’s why I said to Afghanistan: If you harbor a terrorist, you’re just as guilty as the terrorist.
George W. Bush
I need someone to protect me from all the measures they take in order to protect me.
Banksy
At this point of my life, I’m not out to protect anybody. I’m out to protect seven people, and they all have the last name Armstrong.
Lance Armstrong
I enter on the trust to which I have been called by the suffrages of my fellow-citizens with my fervent prayers to the Almighty that He will be graciously pleased to continue to us that protection which He has already so conspicuously displayed in our favor.
James Monroe
Water is life. We are the people who live by the water. Pray by these waters. Travel by the waters. Eat and drink from these waters. We are related to those who live in the water. To poison the waters is to show disrespect for creation. To honor and protect the waters is our responsibility as people of the land.
Winona LaDuke
All these bacteria that coat our skin and live in our intestines, they fend off bad bacteria. They protect us. And you can’t even digest your food without the bacteria that are in your gut. They have enzymes and proteins that allow you to metabolize foods you eat.
Bonnie Bassler
Not even Carol knows firsthand how it feels to be hurt in such a way by someone who’s supposed to protect you
Ellen Hopkins
One of the enduring lessons of history is that whenever an empire becomes insular to ‘protect’ itself, intellectual decline and cultural intolerance are sure to follow.
Irshad Manji
Blaming is a way to protect your heart, trying to protect what is soft and open and tender in yourself.
Pema Chodron
My faith protects me. My Kevlar helps.
Jim Butcher
In our efforts to battle terrorism and cyber attacks and biological weapons, all of us must be extremely aggressive. We must protect our people from danger and keep America safe and free.
William J. Clinton
Law matters, because it keeps us safe, because it protects our most fundamental rights and freedoms, and because it is the foundation of our democracy.
Elena Kagan
A good deal of tyranny goes by the name of protection.
Crystal Eastman
If you want to protect yourself as an actor, always work with good people
George Clooney
For the Fourth Amendment protects people, not places. What a person knowingly exposes to the public, even in his own home or office, is not a subject of Fourth Amendment protection. But what he seeks to preserve as private, even in an area accessible to the public, may be constitutionally protected.
Potter Stewart
Shedding the carapace we have been building so assiduously on the surface, we must by definition give up exactly what we thought was necessary to protect us from further harm.
David Whyte
Envy feeds on the living, after death it rests, then the honor of a man protects him.

O heavenly Father, protect and bless all things that have breath: guard them from all evil and let them sleep in peace.
Albert Schweitzer
We protect aspirin bottles in this country better than we protect guns from accidents by children.
Gloria Estefan
The subtle physical body protects the body’s physical health. It is the radiant life force that is you. When you get sick, it is because there is a problem with your subtle physical body.
Frederick Lenz
What if God’s ‘NO,’ is really a gift? His way to protect us from what we cannot see, provide something better than we can imagine, or be part of the process of growing us closer to Him.
Lysa TerKeurst
Surgeon general’s job is to protect, promote and advance the health, safety and security of the nation.
Richard Carmona
Mother Earth is hurting. And she needs a generation of thoughtful, caring and active kids like all of you to protect her for the future.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Charity is the filthiest invention of the human mind: first you steal what belongs to everyone; then you use the law and various other means to protect it.
You give charity to prevent the have-nots from rebelling against you. It also makes you feel less guilty. All do-gooders feel ‘high’ when they do good.
U.G. Krishnamurti
My guard stood hard when abstract threats, too noble to neglect, deceived me into thinking, I had something to protect.
Bob Dylan
As we continue to fight the War on Terror, it is imperative that we protect America’s fallen heroes by ensuring that they are treated with respect, while being laid to rest.
Jon Porter
If you are not working to protect hunting, then you are working to destroy it.
Fred Bear
For thousands of years it has been understood that, just as civilizations have to come to an end, there can even be times of global extinctions. But always there are people who know how to gather the essence of life and hold it safely, protect it and nurture it until the next seeding.
Peter Kingsley
There is surely no contradiction in saying that a certain section of the community may be quite competent to protect the persons and property of the rest, yet quite unfit to direct our opinions, or to superintend our private habits.
Thomas Babington Macaulay
I also believe that we have to protect our country and lead the world with strength and steadiness, and we have to unify our country and you know that’s what I want the Democratic Party to stand for and that’s what I hope my presidency will achieve.
Hillary Clinton
Sometimes I see it [a foul by an Arsenal player], but I say that I didn’t see it to protect the players and because I could not find any rational explanation for what they did.
Arsene Wenger
What I would say to young entrepreneurs is there’s so many moments in your life where you have these dreams, and people are trying to protect you, and they say, perhaps, friends, family, parents sometimes, they don’t agree with it, they think, ‘This is just too high of a hurdle.’ And I don’t agree with that.
Howard Schultz
I’d like to protect children, too, but… is everything worth sacrificing to that? I mean, drugs have done a lot of good… They’ve midwived a lot of good ideas… lot of great songs, you know? I think “Penny Lane” is worth 10 dead kids… I think Dark Side of the Moon is worth 100 dead kids. There, I said it.
Bill Maher
Protect your good image from the eyes of negative viewers, who may look at your good appearance with an ugly fiendish eye, and ruin your positive qualities with their chemical infested tongues.
Michael Johnson
The law exists to protect the weak from the strong.
Henry Hyde
Nightmares are a strange thing. Your worst fear is sometimes something you enjoy thinking about, for some strange reason. I don’t know why that is, but it’s some kind of fantasy that people play out. “What would I do to protect my children? I’d do anything.” And then, you watch it play out. I’m petrified of such a thing.
Ethan Hawke
I am for police function that protects citizens of this great Nation, not a police function that is used to terrorize them.
Dennis Kucinich
I want you to buy this pit bull. This will protect your valuables.’ I don’t own anything very valuable. If I buy the pit bull, that would be the most valuable thing I own. I’d have to buy something to protect it then.
Norm MacDonald
The Washington establishment and the financial and media corporations that fund it exist for only one reason: to protect and enrich itself.
Donald Trump
We’ve got to protect our young men and women and we’ve got to win that, whatever the cost.
Ken Lucas
They sold me a duvet cover, and I don’t have a duvet, I don’t think. Then, they started treating me like I’m the idiot. They’re like, ‘Do you have a comforter?’ ‘Yeah.’ ‘Well, you have to protect it!’ I had no idea it was under attack.
Alonzo Bodden
It is pretty ironic that the so-called ‘least advanced’ people are the ones taking the lead in trying to protect all of us, while the richest and most powerful among us are the ones who are trying to drive the society to destruction.
Noam Chomsky
Product procedure…must securely protect the crown jewels, but, equally important, it must eschew building high fences around the garbage cans.
Fred Brooks
Immigration law doesn’t exist for the purpose of keeping criminals out. It exists to protect all aspects of American life. The work site, the welfare office, the education system, and everything else.
Donald Trump
If anyone had been paying attention to the signs, they would have realized that air turns white when things are about to change, that paper cuts mean there’s more to what’s written on the page than meets the eye, and that birds are always out to protect you from things you don’t see.
Sarah Addison Allen
woman must not depend on the protection of man, but must learn to protect herself
Susan Beth Pfeffer
Who can protect themselves from betrayal? The day your brother wakes up and plans to do you dirty, there’s no defense against that.
Ice T
Above all, we value the dignity of every human life, protect the rights of every person, and share the hope of every soul to live in freedom. That is who we are. Those are the priceless ties that bind us together as nations, as allies, and as a civilization.
Donald Trump
I think we look to the military as something that protects our shores.
Jerry Bruckheimer
Playing the sex object may not be dangerous for Miley Cyrus, with her bodyguards to protect her, but for a 13-year-old girl hanging out at a party at night, it can be. So I think it’s fair to say to musicians: “Objectifying yourself is not the best choice.”
Keli Goff
This is not politics… it’s to protect the innocence of children.
Bob Dole
Environmental laws were not passed to protect our air and water, they were passed to get votes.
Frank Zappa
When I was young, I asked my priest how you could get to Heaven and still protect yourself from all the evil in the world. He told me what God said to his children. You are sheep among wolves. Be wise as serpents, yet innocent as doves.
Casey Affleck
Around every corner, always protect the engine that powers you.
Dwayne Johnson
Together we hope to establish a standard of Bravery and Kindness, as well as a community worldwide that protects and nurtures others in the face of bullying and abandonment.
Lady Gaga
Rights compliance helps effective outcomes, it does not hinder them. That should come as no surprise because the ‘human rights’ in the Human Rights Act are the rights adopted in the aftermath of the horrors of the second world war, and are designed to protect all of us from oppression.
Keir Starmer
He who defends with love will be secure; Heaven will save him, and protect him with love.
Laozi
Language alone protects us from the scariness of things with no names. Language alone is meditation.
Toni Morrison
I’m excited to just have somebody that I can protect. Someone I can make sure is superloved and never really experiences the turmoil that I went through with my family, to just have a really loving environment that grows intelligent and in love and breathes happiness and productivity.
Nick Carter
When I find a man who is not willing to pay his share of the burden of the government which protects him, I find a man who is unworthy to enjoy the blessings of a government like ours.
William Jennings Bryan
No man can well doubt the propriety of placing a president of the United States under the most solemn obligations to preserve, protect, and defend the constitution.
Joseph Story
When I moved to L.A. in 1989, the very first thing I did was this horrific pilot called To Protect And Surf.
Thomas Haden Church
He’d protect me and shelter me forever. But I was beginning to realize that being sheltered came at a price.
Claudia Gray
A century that began with children having virtually no rights is ending with children having the most powerful legal instrument that not only recognizes but protects their human rights.
Carol Bellamy
If you are not living with a whole heart now, the end of the world poses no threat; your life is already gone. Life is only as valuable as our presence to enjoy it. To miss the beauty of the moment because you are preparing to protect yourself from the next one, is to trade a precious gem for a cheap trinket.
Alan Cohen
I always thought that the badge a cop has was more like the shield that Captain America has. It’s an obvious sign of good and something you’ll protect other people with, but it will also protect you.
Judd Nelson
I’ll protect you. I’ll stand by you if anything happens.
Fuyumi Soryo
We have to find places that we protect away from government so that we can all be the unique and interesting and, in my case, somewhat deviant people we’d like to be.
Alexander Karp
The very purpose of the Bill of Rights and the Constitution is to protect minority rights against majority voters. Every court decision that strikes down discriminatory legislation, including past Supreme Court decisions, affirming the fundamental rights to marry the person you love, overrules a majority decision.
David Boies
Never think that you need to protect God. Because anytime you think you need to protect God, you can be sure that you are worshipping an idol.
Stanley Hauerwas
A viable neighborhood is a community: and a viable community is made up of neighbors who cherish and protect what they have in common.
Wendell Berry
We lose eight children and teenagers to gun violence every day. If a mysterious virus suddenly started killing eight of our children every day, America would mobilize teams of doctors and public health officials. We would move heaven and earth until we found a way to protect our children. But not with gun violence.
Elizabeth Warren
More proof that trusting the Feds to protect our information is like hiring Homer Simpson to guard the donuts.
Robert X. Cringely
Protect everything, detect everything, contain everything – obsessional society. Save time. Save money. Save our souls – phobic society. Low tar. Low energy. Low calories. Low sex. Low speed – anorexic society.
Jean Baudrillard
If you live in a place that you perceive to be a crowded place, you appreciate government; you see it as this thing that protects you against crime, that keeps order, that makes sure that nobody puts a massage parlor next to your house, that keeps other people’s dogs from pooping on the sidewalk.
Gail Collins
Nobody ever thought about having to protect the passengers from the pilots.
David Neeleman
If they knocked two of your guys down, I’d get four. You have to protect your hitters.
Don Drysdale
I call that mind free which protects itself against the usurpations of society, and which does not cower to human opinion: Which refuses to be the slave or tool of the many or of the few, and guards its empire over itself as nobler than the empire of the world.
William Ellery Channing
It’s government’s job to respect and protect the rights of the individual. That vision is centrally important to the principle put forth by the Founding Fathers. If you don’t believe that, you shouldn’t be in Congress.
Bill Sali
Kate had never met a person she didn’t want to protect, preferably by hacking at the hostile parties with her sword.
Ilona Andrews
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
People don’t stand up and protect their dreams because they get spoofed in a way.
Kanye West
As gas-light is found to be the best nocturnal police, so the universe protects itself by pitiless publicity.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The moment the idea is admitted into society that property is not as sacred as the law of God, and that there is not a force of law and public justice to protect it, anarchy and tyranny commence.

Trista Sutter

Enough, children. In case you haven’t noticed, we have a major situation playing out. We have to find and stop War, corral the gallu, protect Apostolos, and get Savitar out of here. (Apollymi) Why the later? (Jared) Because I hate his guts. (Apollymi) I hate you, too, precious. (Savitar)
Sherrilyn Kenyon

Bruce Babbitt
Why the confidential advisor provision is so important, because most women – the first place they go is online: “What do I do if I’m raped?” There’s no knowledge about “How do I proceed?” in a way that’s going to protect them.
Kirsten Gillibrand

Aung San Suu Kyi
Training of farmers in integrated pest management is exceedingly important to protect them during the use of pesticides.
M. S. Swaminathan
I have a broad view that we have to try and get to “yes” on projects. On economic projects anybody can say no. My child can say no. But I think the hard thing to do is to figure out how you get to “yes” and you protect the environment.
Christy Clark
In Cuba, His Holiness [Pope Francis] won’t find a government that protects its people and their God-given rights. Instead, he will find a regime that oppresses people and hinders progress, both socially and politically.
Marco Rubio

Stephen Breyer
In the past, no one paid any serious attention, even to the existing laws that protect animals.

Flowers are almost perfect; their only flaw is that they are weak; they can’t protect themselves against the evil!
Mehmet Murat Ildan
True friends don’t hold us back spiritually or pull us down when we’re trying to rise and progress. True friends protect us. True friends help us be better than we would be on our own.

Hugh Shelton
A democratic government that respects no limits on its power is a ticking time bomb, waiting to destroy the rights it was created to protect.
James Bovard
We cannot protect ourselves from trouble, but we can dance through the puddles of life with a rainbow smile, twirling the only umbrella we need — the umbrella of God’s love.
Barbara Johnson
A lot of people are confused about the difference between the soul and the spirit. Basically the spirit is the envelop that protects the soul from harm. If the spirit is relatively healthy, the soul will be too.

The law protects nothing in that very respect, in which it is, at the same time, in the eye of the law, a crime.
William Murray, 1st Earl of Mansfield

Rodrigo Duterte
It is vital for artists to nurture and protect that which will make their vision unique.
Jane Fulton Alt

Dan Harmon
I have a duty to teach my people about their rights and protect them from being bamboozled.
Ilhan Omar
I’m pro-life. The law protects women’s right to chose, and I think there’s a competing right, which is the rights of the unborn. And as you get closer to term, I think the rights of the unborn become more and more prevalent.

The flame of inspiration needs to be encouraged. Put a glass around that small candle and protect it from discouragement or ridicule.
Mary Higgins Clark
The victims of crime have been transformed into a group oppressively burdened by a system designed to protect them.

James Finley
If we girls aren’t strong, we can’t protect the boys we love.

Fannie Flagg
After 9/11, I told the American people I would do everything in my power to protect the country, within the law, and that’s exactly how I conduct my presidency.

R.L. LaFevers
As humans try to evolve out of greed, let’s put aside some wild places, protected lands, protected farms, things like that, since we may not evolve fast enough to protect nature.
Elizabeth Lesser
Women do have an affinity for evil, for believing that no woman is to be trusted, but that some men are too innocent to protect themselves.
William Faulkner
A nation that honors God will always be honored by God. I’ve seen nations that have dishonored God: God has been taken out of schools, the government, the military; and when you take Him out of a nation, how can you expect God to protect this nation?
Nick Vujicic
It has been said, ‘time heals all wounds.’ I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone.

Rick Riordan
I so earnestly believe that prayer can be helpful and guide you and protect you and inspire you. I mean, I’m in awe.

Bill Maher
The first duty of government is to protect the powerless from the powerful.
Hammurabi
My submission to you is we’re fighting the war on terror not overseas but in our own streets, and we’d be spending vast more fortunes to try to be a defensive country to protect ourselves rather than an offensive country to spread democracy wherever people yearn for it.
Johnny Isakson
So today, we call upon the world leaders to change their strategic policies in favor of peace and prosperity. We call upon the world leaders that all of these deals must protect women and children’s rights. A deal that goes against the rights of women is unacceptable.
Malala Yousafzai
I put all the blame legally and morally on the actions of the terrorist, but America’s secular and anti-Christian environment left us open to our Lord’s decision not to protect. When a nation deserts God and expels God from the culture … the result is not good.
Jerry Falwell
Luxurious food and drinks, in no way protect you from harm. Wealth beyond what is natural, is no more use than an overflowing container. Real value is not generated by theaters, and baths, perfumes or ointments, but by philosophy.
Epicurus
I am extremely proud of my service with the government and my efforts to help safeguard public health and protect our country against the scourge of offensive biological warfare.
Steven Hatfill
In the absence of the gold standard, there is no way to protect savings from confiscation through inflation. There is no safe store of value.
Alan Greenspan
The coffin, it shall protect me, though Death himself lies in it
Erich Maria Remarque
Actually, I think you’re more stymied playing the good guy than you are the bad guy. As the bad guy, you have no inhibitions. Nothing stops you from doing what it is you feel you have to do. You do it because it’s what’s required. I have to protect my goddess, as best as I can.
Dennis Haysbert
People are hungering for property — for a secure, permanent and independent link with spaceship earth that ownership represents and which only ownership can protect or defend. It is humiliating to possess nothing, to own nothing, and hence to produce nothing and to count for nothing.
Louis O. Kelso
The wall that protects you, also imprisons you.
Susan Jeffers
Obvious enough that generalities work to protect the mind from the great outdoors; is it possible that this was in fact their first purpose?
Howard Nemerov
We have to protect our inner cities, because African-American communities are being decimated by crime, decimated.
Donald Trump
I actually study boxing – my dad was a Golden Gloves champion so I learned how to fight at a very young age. Growing up in Brooklyn you always had to watch your back, so I pretty much learned to protect myself.
Lana Parrilla
I want to protect our constitutional right to bear arms in a legal and thoughtful way with background checks that also don’t want people to get shot and murdered, but it doesn’t mean that you can’t own a gun.
Kimberly Guilfoyle
The federal government is doing less than it is lawfully entitled to do to protect New York City, and the City is less safe as a result.
Raymond Kelly
I protect my right to be a Catholic by preserving your right to believe as a Jew, a Protestant, or non-believer, or as anything else you choose.
We know that the price of seeking to force our beliefs on others is that they might some day force theirs on us.
Mario Cuomo
But Quantrill and his men were no more bandits than the men on the other side. I’ve been to reunions of Quantrill’s men two or three times. All they were trying to do was protect the property on the Missouri side of the line.
Harry S. Truman
I’m having to protect myself. How do you protect your heart and cover everything? When you don’t want to look people in the eye and you’re constantly dodging, I fall into it.
Tobias Segal
Companies cannot really see beyond their current customer base. They explicitly or implicitly do things to protect their current customers. And the last person to want real change is your customer. This is why most new ideas come from small companies that have nothing to lose.
Nicholas Negroponte
When you’re in a relationship you really care about, you want to protect it and not talk about it.
Jennifer Grey
The mountain gorilla faces grave danger of extinction – primarily because of the encroachments of native man upon its habitat – and neglect by civilized man, who does not conscientiously protect even the limited areas now allotted for the gorilla’s survival.
Dian Fossey
God’s angels often protect his servants from potential enemies.
Billy Graham
We are in a code orange. Homeland Security said earlier today that everyone should have a roll of duct tape and plastic sheeting to protect your house in event of terrorist attacks. Who came up with this idea? MacGyver?
Jay Leno
Because someone stole Gregory Peck’s star on Hollywood Blvd., I have hired a Brink’s guard to protect my star!
Rip Taylor
My dad taught me from my youngest childhood memories through these connections with Aboriginal and tribal people that you must always protect people’s sacred status, regardless of the pest.
Steve Irwin
Everybody doesn’t want to have to be a computer scientist to protect themselves. Most people have no desire to do that.
Tim Cook
We’ve gone astray from first principles. We’ve lost sight of the rule that individual freedom and ingenuity are at the very core of everything that we’ve accomplished. Government’s first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives.
Ronald Reagan
I instinctively try to protect people from filth.
Tony Abbott
The security of our nation depends on the men and women who are willing to sacrifice their safety, and possibly their lives, to protect the freedoms the rest of us enjoy.
Ben Nelson
The arrangements that couples make in order to maintain civility in the midst of their journey to divorce are often most elaborate when the professed top priority is to protect a child.
John Irving
Only a very small number of the e-mails containing classified information bore markings indicating the presence of classified information. But even if information is not marked ‘classified’ in an e-mail, participants who know or should know that the subject matter is classified are still obligated to protect it.
James Comey
Better stop short than fill to the brim. Oversharpen the blade, and the edge will soon blunt. Amass a store of gold and jade, and no one can protect it.
Laozi
The mother is the most essential piece on the board, the one you must protect. Only she has the range. Only she can move in multiple directions. Once she’s gone, it’s a whole different game.
Kelly Corrigan
Why thrust your kid into that? You try to protect them from all the bad people out there.
John Aniston
…was designed to protect his heart, to bind me and bribe me to stay with him no matter what. He was giving everything he had.
Sylvia Day
When economic conditions are difficult, people tend to be less generous and protect themselves; the question of solidarity doesn’t mean much to them at that time.
Kofi Annan
I’m not a dermatologist, but I had someone explain it to me, and I’ve seen the effect on my own skin over the years. So I feel like we need to protect our faces, especially those of us who live in Southern California, from this goddamn sun that’s on us all day.
June Diane Raphael
They don’t have special rights because we have civil rights laws that protect them. The laws work both ways.
Tom Allen
I am disappointed that we went through this process. The country went through this process. I think it’s the responsibility of the government to help individual citizens as well as institutions, non-profits, corporations, to protect us. To help protect us.
Donna Brazile
I need you to protect me from being lonely. Don’t fight for me. Be with me.That’s what I need.”-Bianca to Lucas

Sara Shepard
I believe every human life is a gift from God and we should cherish and protect and celebrate them.
Ted Cruz
Most men with nothing would rather protect the possibility of becoming rich than face the reality of being poor.
John Dickinson
Why can’t the black man have a God? What’s so wrong when a black man says his God will protect him form his white foe? If Jehovah can slay Philistines for the Jews, why can’t Allah slay crackers for the so-called Negro?
Malcolm X
I’m not sure what gave me empathy for animals, but I do know that I have always loved animals since I was a very young child. I always felt a need to nurture and protect them. Perhaps I could see they needed that, and caring for them made me happy.
Alison Eastwood
A big mistake people make when they are trying to lose weight is that they stop eating. They’ll eat salads once a day and then their body starts trying to protect itself and holds onto the fat.
Curtis Jackson
The United States will do whatever we have to do to protect our forces.
Leon Panetta
We want our government to protect us, to make sure something like 9/11 never happens again. We quickly moved to give law enforcement more power to do this. But that now begs the question, did we move to fast? Did we give too much power away? I don’t have the answer.
Michael Connelly
As an entrepreneur, you’ve got to protect against the company going bust. And as an adventurer, you’ve got to protect against losing your life. It’s even more important as an adventurer to get it right.
Richard Branson
Jiu-jitsu is personal efficiency to protect the weaker, which anyone can do. It is the force of leverage against brute force.
Helio Gracie
It’s much easier, I think, to protect communications while they’re in transit at least, than it is to enforce legislation in every country in the world to say that you can’t do this.
Edward Snowden
St. Joseph was a just man, a tireless worker, the upright guardian of those entrusted to his care. May he always guard, protect and enlighten families.
Pope John Paul II
Small players learn to be intuitive, to anticipate, to protect the ball. A guy who weighs 90 kilos doesn’t move like one who weighs 60. In the playground I always played against much bigger kids and I always wanted the ball. Without it, I feel lost.
Andres Iniesta
China protects the Chinese, America protects the Americans, I don’t see why Europe should not protect the Europeans.
Dominique de Villepin
I want to look at the whole package, but I definitely want to protect the middle-class taxpayer, first and foremost.
Kay Hagan
The new iPhone encryption does not stop them from accessing copies of your pictures or whatever that are uploaded to, for example, Apple’s cloud service, which are still legally accessible because those are not encrypted. It only protects what’s physically on the phone.
Edward Snowden
The American flag is an enduring symbol of liberty, democracy, and justice. It is fitting that the House act to protect it as we approach our nation’s birthday, and as our men and women in uniform rally behind it in Iraq’s battlefields.
Joe Barton
Then to deliver the message to the audience is our mission. I tried to imagine, if they killed my family, daughters, I would do anything to protect my family. It’s insane but that’s the situation everybody was in.
Miyavi
You project a version of yourself to the public to protect and insulate yourself a little bit. Actors come up with a version of themselves in order to protect the real person.

The attorney general could push and the president Donald Trump could push governors and state attorney generals to move forward with hate crimes laws all over America to protect the Jewish community and other marginalized groups.
Jonathan Greenblatt

Cindy Hyde-Smith
She had to face the fact that she couldn’t protect everyone she loved. She couldn’t solve every problem.
Rick Riordan
I like being able to go to the supermarket and go on the Tube and have an ordinary domestic life. I’d hate to have to protect myself. I’m quite lucky that I can carry on without any intrusions. I don’t get given a hard time by anyone.
Jim Broadbent
It is important to distinguish between the power of the Internet to make the great change it can, and the limits and vulnerabilities of that change without real-time political mobilization deployed globally to protect those who venture out, especially in closed societies, into the heady new vistas it offers.
Naomi Wolf
Putting middle class families in jeopardy in order to protect the wealthiest among us isn’t consistent with the values and priorities that most Americans share.
Martin O’Malley
There’s something about trying to know when you really need to protect yourself, or else you’re not going to get anything done, and sometimes to be really uncomfortable or agitated or annoyed or bored. Boredom is so important.
Regina Spektor
If I were personally to define religion, I would say that it is a bandage that man has invented to protect a soul made bloody by circustance.
Theodore Dreiser
I would have been more aggressive in the Ruslan [Provodnikov] fight if not because of my eye early in the fight. I had to protect that eye and be even smarter than I normally would. Don’t be confused with my style just from that one fight, because I know a lot of you have only seen that one fight.
Chris Algieri
Sometimes his methods are questionable, and even his morals are questionable, but his intention is always to protect Sydney. So in that way I think he’s a good parent.
Victor Garber
We would here state that there are now three things necessary to be done in order to save China from revolution. The first is to maintain the reigning Dynasty; the second is to conserve the Holy Religion; and the third is to protect the Chinese race.
Zhang Zhidong
I did not defund the police as mayor. I increased the budget. If we want the best and brightest men and women to protect us, we better darn well give them the tools, the training, and the support necessary to be successful.
Kevin Faulconer
The federal government has a responsibility to protect all Americans from potential terrorist attack.
Bob Etheridge
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.
Benjamin Carson
I don’t say anything wacky about women. I have more respect for women than anybody would understand and I’m going to give people jobs and I’m going to protect people.
Donald Trump
Thank you,” the young mother said again. “Thank you.” “The Black Tower protects,” Logain heard himself say. “Always.” “I will send him to you to be tested when he is of age,” the woman promised, holding her son. “I would have him join you, if he has the talent.” The talent. Not the curse. The talent.
Robert Jordan
The talk of sheltering woman from the fierce storms of life is the sheerest mockery, for they beat on her from every point of thecompass, just as they do on man, and with more fatal results, for he has been trained to protect himself, to resist, to conquer.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton
I wanted to protect him, which I was sure I could do, even if I could not protect myself.
Jonathan Safran Foer
You can’t kill your way to success in a counter insurgency effort. You have to protect the people, get the civil military balance right, train the locals, and practice effective strategic communications.
James G. Stavridis
The fabric of democracy is always fragile everywhere because it depends on the will of citizens to protect it, and when they become scared, when it becomes dangerous for them to defend it, it can go very quickly.
Margaret Atwood
When I was living an almost mechanical lifestyle as an idol, I was constantly wrapped up in thoughts about who I was. That’s when I entered a phase in which I was trying to discover myself. Because I was able to get past that difficult phase, I now realize how important it is to protect myself and my identity.
Park Hyung-sik

Patricia Briggs
If you don’t move to protect copyright, if you don’t move to protect our children, it’s not going to sit well
Barbara Boxer

John T. Chambers
We pay for the navy, and we have no commerce for the navy to protect; we pay for the army, and we loathe and execrate the work upon which it has been engaged.
John Edward Redmond
In the system of chivalry, men protect women against men. This is not unlike the protection relationship which [organized crime] established with small businesses in the early part of this century. Indeed, chivalry is an age-old protection racket which depends for its existence on rape.
Susan Griffin
Mother Earth needs us to keep our covenant. We will do this in courts, we will do this on our radio station, and we will commit to our descendants to work hard to protect this land and water for them. Whether you have feet, wings, fins, or roots, we are all in it together.
Winona LaDuke
Knowledge can protect you much better than a strong castle!
Mehmet Murat Ildan
Censoring books that deal with difficult, adolescent issues does not protect anybody. Quite the opposite. It leaves kids in the darkness and makes them vulnerable. Censorship is the child of fear and the father of ignorance. Our children cannot afford to have the truth of the world withheld from them
Laurie Halse Anderson
When we protect the places where the processes of life can flourish, we strengthen not only the future of medicine, agriculture and industry, but also the essential conditions for peace and prosperity.
Harrison Ford
I don’t want to say anything because I know I am unable to protect you from the harm that I see.
Camille Claudel
We want to protect freedom of speech, but it is not unlimited freedom of speech. There has always been rules around defamation, slander and libel, and in Victoria, we have effective rules on racial and religious vilification.
Denis Napthine
Unless we are willing to encourage our children to reconnect with and appreciate the natural world, we can’t expect them to help protect and care for it.
David Suzuki
Lawyers are men whom we hire to protect us from lawyers.
Elbert Hubbard
[Clinton’s crimes] is well documented, and the establishment that protects them has engaged in a massive coverup of widespread criminal activity at the State Department and the Clinton Foundation in order to keep the Clintons in power.
Donald Trump
I didn’t want the public in my personal life at all – I thought that people might perceive me as too normal, and I’d lose that larger-than-life rock star persona. You’ve got to protect that!
Vanilla Ice
Values are the shields that you carry throughout life and it protects you from whatever life throws at you.
Queen Rania of Jordan
I hope the unionist parties, for example, who would be keen to protect and preserve the Union would see that it’s much easier to do that if the U.K. stays within the Customs Union and the Single Market, because that would take away the need for any special arrangement, or bespoke solution, for Northern Ireland.
Leo Varadkar
The gate is small because truth guards the entrance. The way is narrow because the Lord protects us with wise boundaries.
Charles Stanley
Our number one and top priority is to protect and defend our community. It is not to assimilate and please any other people and authority.
Linda Sarsour
If any man is rich and powerful he comes under the law of God by which the higher branches must take the burnings of the sun, and shade those that are lower; by which the tall trees must protect the weak plants beneath them.
Henry Ward Beecher
The byproduct of the main thrust to protect the biodiversity of a given place is that you get especially young people out to the parks, because it will be future generations that will have to value these landscapes and these ecosystems and make sure that nobody is changing the law.
Douglas Tompkins
The only thing worse than fighting a giant scorpion was fighting a giant scorpion who was trying to protect her young.
Suzanne Collins
Donald Trump’d rather believe Vladimir Putin than the military and civilian intelligence professionals who are sworn to protect us.
Hillary Clinton
The media has been trying to protect Obama. The media has been trying to shield Obama. Several in the Republican establishment in the so-called conservative media have even been trying to shield Obama.
Rush Limbaugh
Historically the director has been the key creative element in a film and we must maintain that. We must protect that, in spite of the fact that there is new technology that’s continually trying to erode that.
John Frankenheimer
You really had to learn to protect yourself from all Gooks in Vietnam, or else you would end up dead.
Peter P. Mahoney
Police and firefighters are great, but they don’t create wealth. They protect it. That’s crucial. Teaching is a wonderful profession. Teachers help educate people to become good citizens so that citizens can then go create wealth. But they don’t create the wealth themselves.
Rush Limbaugh

Madeleine M. Kunin
I have AIDS. I am surprised that I do. I have not been exposed since1977, which is to say that my experience, myadventures in homosexuality took place largely in the1960s and ’70s, and back then I relied on time and abstinence to indicate my degree of freedom from infectionand to protect others and myself.
Harold Brodkey

Herbie Hancock
Perhaps one day we will do “everything that we can to protect our people and the timeless values that we stand for.” But today, we won’t even honestly describe the motivations of our enemies. And in the act of lying to ourselves, we continue to pay lip service to the very delusions that empower them.

Kathleen Sebelius
And now, since I’ve been governor since last January, I have written numerous letters to the administration in regards to securing our borders with absolutely no response.

Jan Brewer
We must do everything possible to protect the lives of everyone and help make sure no one in this country feels unsafe.

Edith Widder
Never believe a man’s claim that he has to harm his partner in order to protect her; only abusers think this way.
Lundy Bancroft
Large companies and government agencies have a lot to protect and therefore are not willing to take big risks. A large company taking a risk can threaten its stock price. A government agency taking a risk can threaten congressional investigation.
Peter Diamandis

Laurance Labadie
Adults trying to protect children from reality, right? And adults always trying to fill children with fantasy – the tooth fairy, Santa, make-believe games, etc. But kids are really smart, I think they know from an early age about death, this void and hole they are immediately traveling toward.

Philip Elmer-DeWitt
Everybody breaks sooner or later, Bob. Anyone can drown. Sometimes you see it. Most often, you don’t because the body protects and the skin hides, so drowning doesn’t look like drowning and some people scar so nicely. Take it from an expert.
Ilsa J. Bick

Jimmy Carter
This Earth is our only home. Together, we must protect and cherish it.
Ban Ki-moon
In order to judge of the form to be given to this institution the Senate, it will be proper to take a view of the ends to be served by it.

James Madison
It is, and long has been my opinion, and I have heard honourable members in this House declare it to be theirs – that it is the duty of Parliament equally to protect all the different interests in the country.

Donald Trump
Government has three primary functions. It should provide for military defense of the nation. It should enforce contracts between individuals. It should protect citizens from crimes against themselves or their property.

LaToya Jackson
God took Eve from the side of Adam, not from his foot to be his menial or slave or servant, not from his head to be his mental superior, and did take him from that which is nearest his heart, that he might love her, and that which is under his arm, that he might protect her.
Matthew Henry
It is the daily; it is the small; it is the cumulative injuries of little people that we are here to protect….If we are able to keep our democracy, there must be once commandment: THOU SHALT NOT RATION JUSTICE.
Learned Hand
I’m not targeting government. I’m not saying hey, I’m closing it because I don’t want to give you any data. I’m saying that to protect out customers, we have to encrypt. And a side affect of that is, I don’t have the data.
Tim Cook
The NYPD has too urgent a mission and too few officers for us to waste time and resources on broad, unfocused surveillance. We have a responsibility to protect New Yorkers from violent crime or another terrorist attack – and we uphold the law in doing so.
Raymond Kelly
I think most people are motivated to want to do what is best for themselves. People want to avoid STDs. I believe in a system that leaves it up to the individual to protect their own health.

Bryant H. McGill
From all wise men, O Lord, protect us.

Maxwell Maltz
The National Rifle Association is always arguing that the Second Amendment determines the right to bear arms. But I think it really is the people’s right to bear arms in a militia. The NRA thinks it protects their right to have Teflon-coated bullets. But that’s not the original understanding.

You know, you have to protect yourself too.
Nilo Cruz
We are using missile defense to protect our civilians, and they’re using their civilians to protect their missiles.
Benjamin Netanyahu

Steve Daines
I had to learn, because as an artist myself, an artist owns that right to protect their interest of how they want to roll their project out. It’s just important to give them that opportunity to roll it out the way they want to.

Here’s a message to the new borns, waiting to breathe: if you believe then you can achieve.

Malcolm X
The nuclear arsenal that Pakistan has, I believe is secure. I think the government and the military have taken adequate steps to protect that.
Hillary Clinton
Sometimes a King has to do terrible things in order to protect those he has sworn to look after. When the stakes are so high, dreadful decisions have to be taken. It is the responsibility of a King to take on that burden, that guilt.

Joyce Meyer
It was over in a blink of an eye, that moment when aviation stirred the modern imagination. Aviation was transformed from recklessness to routine in Lindbergh’s lifetime.

George Will
The heroes who emerged first from the rubble of the September 11 attacks were not politicians or generals and they didnt become household names in the months that followed. They were, instead, public servants who continued to work day in and day out to protect our communities and ensure hometown security.

David Suzuki
Vaccination is the single most important step people can take to protect themselves from influenza.

Republicans talk a good game about veterans, but when it came to put money on the line to protect our veterans, frankly, they were not there.
Bernie Sanders
The restriction of religion to private life therefore does not necessarily threaten the vital interests of the majority religion, if there is one, and it protects minority religions from tyranny of the majority.
Phillip E. Johnson
Should we choose to extend our airstrikes into Syria, we will be doing this in the collective self-defence of Iraq. We would be doing this out of a responsibility to protect innocent people at risk of horrible death from the most violent people imaginable.
Tony Abbott
So we have neighbors to bless, children to protect, the poor to lift up, and the truth to defend. We have wrongs to make right, truths to share, and good to do. In short, we have a life of devoted discipleship to give in demonstrating our love of the Lord. We can’t quit and we can’t go back.
Jeffrey R. Holland
If we do not counter the argument that most radical nationlists use, which is, ‘To protect is to be protectionist,’ if we don’t counter that argument, all of our economies will suffer.
Frans Timmermans
The duty of a patriot is to protect his country from its government.
Edward Abbey
I trust myself, and I trust Life to support and protect me.
Louise Hay
So I conjured one of the brokers and promised him my soul if he’d protect her. (Zephyra) You can’t do that. Only a demon can. (Stryker) You’re such a brainiac, baby. And to think, I thought I married you for those amazing abs. Who knew all that brainpower was buried under those bulging biceps? (Zephyra)
Sherrilyn Kenyon
The very madness of the scheme protects it.
Iris Murdoch
Therefore, the only way Donald Trump can protect himself is to set up a blind trust or to divest in these holdings. It`s the only way.
Chuck Todd
It’s as if our electric grid didn’t even have fences around it. This is disgraceful what we do, and what we don’t do, to protect the Internet.
Paul Vixie
I think, all in all, the Obama administration and what President Obama has focused on has lived up to our need to protect American interests, to live our values and assert our values, and to stand up for future generations.
John F. Kerry
Things go wrong for me all the time with technology. I’m not familiar enough with it, and I’m too old-school a brain to be able to figure it out. I’m dumb. Anything that I have to attack with my thumbs, for any period of time, makes me feel stupid. So, I try to avoid it, as much as possible, to protect my thumbs.
Johnny Depp
A candidate is a person who gets money from the rich and votes from the poor to protect them from each other.
Stanislaw Lem
There is one principle which is eternal; it is the duty of all men to protect their lives and the lives of the household, whenever necessity requires, and no power has a right to forbid it, should the last extreme arrive.
Sam Smith
When you can find a strong character and a director that does want to protect the integrity of all characters, female and male, then you have a good deal.
Amber Heard
I am really inspired when I am in an experience, at the front lines of conservation, and I see someone – a woman, a man, a child, a person – who has given up an opportunity to have a family, an opportunity for financial riches, even an opportunity for security, [to] put their whole life on the line to protect a species.
Jeff Corwin
We know that the most fundamental responsibility of our Federal Government is to ensure the safety of its people and to protect and ensure our National security. And clearly port security has been left in limbo.
Vito Fossella
Society may protect itself without putting a human to death as it would a wild animal. Since we believe each person has a soul, and is capable of achieving salvation, life in prison is now an alternative to the death penalty.
Richard Viguerie
He gave me something that day… something I wanted to protect. And when it was taken from me I learned how small I was. I vowed to never again care for someone so much, I couldn’t bear to lose them.
Kazuya Minekura
We must protect our limited resources for those who are truly in need and who are doing all they can to be self-sufficient.
Paul LePage
As a parent, the goal is not to get to the other end. It’s just simply to protect the children that you’re responsible for – and protect their hearts – and, wherever they’re headed, to get (them) there safely. That involves patience, time and willingness to listen.
Martha Williamson
I am dying innocent. The sentence is wrong. God protect Germany and make Germany great again. Long live Germany! God protect my family!
Fritz Sauckel
I will fight every day to protect the health of our communities, to provide comprehensive care for our women and our mothers, to defend coverage for those who have pre-existing conditions, and to ensure that all Americans have access to affordable, quality health care.
Lucy McBath
North Carolina is home to some of the largest financial institutions in the country, and a vibrant network of community banks. We’re a banking state, and we’re proud of that distinction. But we also understand that responsible financial regulation protects consumers and businesses.
Kay Hagan
First, the federal government, one of the fundamental responsibilities that it has is to protect the nation’s health and wellbeing. And this [Zika virus] is a threat to public health in the United States. It is a very serious disease.
Marco Rubio
We call the Creator father, because we rely upon Him to protect us, guide us, feed us, keep us warm, to discipline us and all those things. I try to take my cue from the Creator, with regard to my children.
Terrence Howard
I think you have to protect your private life as much as you possibly can, and, at the same time, find ways to redirect that focus and turn the glare into a positive thing. I don’t know how you do it. I don’t know how anybody’s ever done it.
Scarlett Johansson
I can be fearlessly strong at times to protect an inner frailty.
Cindy Sherman
At the heart of mature masculinity is a sense of benevolent responsibility to lead, provide for, and protect women in ways appropriate to man’s differing relationships.
John Piper
Terms such as obscene are used swiftly in order to protect people from exposure to the truth.
Thomas Hirschhorn
I honor and protect my sensitivity.
Cheryl Richardson
Woman naturally seeks to embrace that which is living, personal, and whole. To cherish, guard, protect, nourish and advance growth is her natural, maternal yearning.
Edith Stein
Some people who hated Americans set out to kill a lot of us and they succeeded [on 9/11]….We’re trying to protect ourselves with more weapons. We have to do it, I guess, but it might be better if we figured out how to behave as a nation in a way that wouldn’t make so many people in the world want to kill us.
Andy Rooney
In this role my wish is to build our understanding of what it means to protect the rights and human dignity of all Australians. Upholding human rights is about looking out for each other, taking the idea of fairness seriously. And it goes to the heart of who we are as a nation.
Mick Dodson
War can protect; it cannot create.
Alfred North Whitehead
If you protect a man from folly, you will soon have a nation of fools.
William Penn
Your love
Should never be offered to the mouth of a
Stranger,
Only to someone
Who has the valor and daring
To cut pieces of their soul off with a knife
Then weave them into a blanket
To protect you.
Hafez
The testimony of former abortion workers can help persuade lawmakers to create fair laws that protect women from dirty abortion facilities.

Ambrose Bierce
Make love and not war! ‘Cause we don’t need no trouble.
What we need is love
To guide and protect us on.
If you hope good down from above,
Help the weak if you are strong now.
Bob Marley
You want to have a loving, safe relationship with your child, but you can’t because you have to do these things to protect them or protect them from themselves – or try to make sure they don’t become a vampire! Your desires and your needs are in opposition, and that’s always fun to play.
Jack Coleman
Broadcasters have a responsibility to serve the public interest and protect Americans from objectionable content, particularly during the hours when children are likely to be watching.
Bart Gordon
One of the curious things about censorship is that no one seems to believe in it for himself. We want censorship to protect someone else— the young, the unstable, the suggestible, the stupid. I have never heard of anyone who wanted a film or speaker banned because otherwise he himself might be harmed.
Edgar Dale
I begin to see what marriage is for. It’s to keep people away from each other. Sometimes I think that two people who love each other can be saved from madness only by the things that come between them – children, duties, visits, bores, relations – the things that protect married people from each other.
Edith Wharton
Horses have hoofs to carry them over frost and snow; hair, to protect them from wind and cold. They eat grass and drink water, and fling up their heels…. Such is the real nature of horses.
Zhuangzi
I would remind my countrymen, that they are to be men first, and Americans only at a late and convenient hour. No matter how valuable law may be to protect your property, even to keep soul and body together, if it do not keep you and humanity together.
Henry David Thoreau
Food history is as important as a baroque church. Governments should recognize cultural heritage and protect traditional foods. A cheese is as worthy of preserving as a sixteenth-century building.
Carlo Petrini
The people that hunt are the guys that really vehemently protect the environment. You find that people that live on ranches tend to want to keep it that way, and I’ve always loved that about the hunters that I’ve known. They eat what they kill, and they carry it out. They don’t shoot for sport.
Tim Allen
I work on a TV show I love, I have the opportunity to do movies with actors I respect, and I’m in love with the man I want to spend the rest of my life with, who pushes me and excites me. There’s this fighter in me that kind of needs to be put to rest a little bit. I don’t need to be so tough to protect myself.
Ali Larter
The moral and constitutional obligations of our representatives in Washington are to protect our liberty, not coddle the world, precipitating no-win wars, while bringing bankruptcy and economic turmoil to our people.
Ron Paul
Patron: One who countenances, supports or protects. Commonly a wretch who supports with insolence, and is repaid in flattery.
Samuel Johnson
I think he’s [Louis Brandeis] a great model for progressive justices today who want to answer the originalists. It’s not that the original paradigm cases are irrelevant, but you have to focus on the values the framers were trying to protect, not on the means with which those values were invaded in the 18th century.
Jeffrey Rosen
I remain committed to a balanced policy, which will protect our national interests both on our eastern border – I mean with Russia – and of course with the European Union.
Viktor Yanukovych
When you have children, it’s like having your heart beating outside your chest. You can drive yourself crazy wanting to protect them and make sure that nothing harms them. It’s a feeling of vulnerability that you can’t get around sometimes.
Kevin Griffin
When something goes wrong with the body of energy that surrounds and protects your physical body, it will later show up in your physical body. The problem always starts in the subtle physical, and then manifests in the physical.
Frederick Lenz
The simpleness, the sweetness, and the constancy of the tender mercies of the Lord will do much to fortify and protect us in the troubled times in which we do now and will yet live.
David A. Bednar
Investors need to pick their poison: Either make more money when times are good and have a really ugly year every so often, or protect on the downside and don’t be at the party so long when things are good.
Seth Klarman
Love consists in this, that two solitudes protect and touch and greet each other.
Rainer Maria Rilke
If the Bill of Rights was intended to place strict limits on federal power and protect individual and locality from the national government the 14th Amendment effectively defeated that purpose by placing the power to enforce the Bill of Rights in federal hands, where it was never intended to be.
Ilana Mercer
So I take it you guys are going to stay inside my flat and not out in the hallway like my father’s guards? (Kiara) You know that’s the most pathetic way to guard someone. (In a falsetto he added.) Please protect my life by being outside so that when they come in and kill me you can’t hear it. (Syn)
Sherrilyn Kenyon
Russia should be competitive, be able to protect its own interests and influence the processes that are important to it.
Vladimir Putin
If any honor existed in war, it was in fighting to protect others from harm
Christopher Paolini
With this realization, came a growing need for men and women willing to take up arms in an effort to protect our American way of life and the freedoms so many of our ancestors died to entrench.
Jim Walsh
Byrne’s Law: In any electrical circuit, appliances and wiring will burn out to protect fuses.
Robert Byrne
Well, I would love it if they could take all the guns away. Unfortunately, you can’t do that so you hope that good people in the world have them to protect the people who can’t protect themselves.
Mark Wahlberg
Planet Earth is our shared island, let us join forces to protect it
Ban Ki-moon
The joy about our work is spoiled when we perform it not because of what we produce but because of the pleasure with which it can provide us, or the pain against which it can protect us.
Paul Tillich
I don’t think there’s anything immature about fighting for the underdog and fighting for people who don’t have a voice. I have an intense desire to protect people who can’t protect themselves.
Kristen Bell
All forms of books make a valuable contribution to education and the dissemination of culture and information. The diversity of books and editorial content is a source of enrichment that we must support through appropriate public policies and protect from uniformity.
Irina Bokova
I’m not tough when it comes to people criticizing the people that I protect, and those are the actors. It makes them scared to do it again for another director.
Lee Daniels
The law has no claim to human respect. It has no civilizing mission; its only purpose is to protect exploitation.
Peter Kropotkin
Laws are made to protect the trusting as well as the suspicious.
Hugo Black
The best way to promote and protect opportunity is through collaboration, consensus-building, and pragmatic problem-solving. Throughout nearly 30 years in public service, I have approached tough challenges by making room for as many people as possible around the table in search of common ground.
Tom Perez
Jesus fought Satan in ‘hand to hand combat’ . . . ‘you need to protect this victory.’
Pope Francis
Clearly it’s not easy for woman in modern society, no matter where we live. We still have to go extra mile to prove that we are equal to men. We have to work longer hours and make more sacrifices. And we must emotionally protect ourselves from unfair, often vicious attacks made on us.
Benazir Bhutto
I think every writer has got to direct. If you don’t direct, you can’t protect your work. The only way to ensure that it’s going to be as close as possible to what you put down on paper – and what you see and hear in your head – is to do it yourself.
Amy Sherman-Palladino
Protocol may be defined as the code of etiquette which protects royalty from the competition of intellectual and social superiors.
Elsa Maxwell
We are currently working on new policies to protect and create American jobs, particularly by improving education. We need more information in order to find the best solutions to this increasing concern for American families.
Dan Lipinski
Incredible. It never ceases to amaze Starkey how far society will go to protect the children it loves and to discard the ones it doesn’t.
Neal Shusterman
We need to stop apologizing for celebrating life. We need to stop apologizing for wanting to protect an individual’s right to build a business.
Rick Perry
We have a duty as the state to protect our economy… We are for the protection of intellectual property.
Angela Merkel
Do people ever reflect, one wonders, that the best way to protect against the penetration of one’s secrets by others is to have the minimum of secrets to conceal?
George F. Kennan
A big heart is both a clunky and a delicate thing; it doesn’t protect itself and it doesn’t hide. It stands out, like a baby’s fontanel, where you can see the soul pulse through.
Anne Lamott
Our enemy is motivated by hatred and will not stop planning more plots against until they are ultimately defeated. Today was an important and necessary victory in the war, but there is a long road ahead. We must remain committed if we are to succeed and protect our liberty.
Timothy Murphy
By rescuing the financial system without reforming it, Washington has done nothing to protect us from a new crisis, and, in fact, has made another crisis more likely.
Paul Krugman
I’m very conscious of data and analytics, and understanding how our body works and different loads that we put on it throughout the course of games and practices. It helps you make adjustments if you need to, helps you be smarter about your workouts, and I think it protects you from injuries to not over-exert yourself.
Stephen Curry
This [2016] election is about the people being crushed by Obamacare. And it’s about defeating ISIS and appointing a Supreme Court and a Supreme Court Justice – it could be four or five – who will defend and protect our Constitution.
Donald Trump
The blessing hands of Christ are like a roof that protects us. But at the same time, they are a gesture of opening up, tearing the world open so that heaven my enter in, may become “present” within it.
Pope Benedict XVI
The close relationship between politics and economics is neither neutral nor coincidental. Large governments evolve through history in order to protect large accumulations of property and wealth.
Michael Parenti
I am strongly pro-life, and have fought to protect the rights of the unborn my entire career. I will continue to fight for this cause because I value the sanctity of all human life.
Rob Bishop
I want to foster a positive relationship between police officers and the communities they protect.
Kenny Stills
I grew up with an extremely abusive father. As a mother, I wanted to protect my own children from exposure to violence. When I found out one of my daughters was in an abusive relationship, it broke my heart. Finally, she left him ?- but only after his abuse started spreading to the children.
Ginny Brown-Waite
I did not enjoy the violence of boxing so much as the science of it. I was intrigued by how one moved one’s body to protect oneself, how one used a strategy both to attack and retreat, how one paced oneself over a match.
Nelson Mandela
He has to do the heavy lifting and the windows and the wash, and also protect the president.
Alan K. Simpson
You know I could crush you.” “I know you won’t.” “Why, because I need to protect you?” “No,” She poked him in the breastplate. “Because you gave me a pillow.
Larissa Ione
Empathizing with someone’s ‘no’ protects us from taking it personally.
Marshall B. Rosenberg
To be united with Me in total dedication to My highest will protects the soul from forces of destruction. There is no safety in external circumstances. The only shield for the spirit of man is My presence. It is written, “The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear Him, and delivereth them.”
Frances J Roberts
Donald Trump will never turn his back on those who serve and protect us at home and abroad.
Mike Pence
F. Scott Fitzgerald thought that prolonging his adolescence would protect his talent.
Mason Cooley
Each day, millions of police officers do the selfless work of putting their lives on the line to protect civilians, frequently responding to or preventing crises completely with no recognition.
Letitia James
On July 4th, we renew our commitment to the American Idea-the belief that all men are created equal. We read the Declaration. We tell our kids the history. We remember those who died to protect our country. And along the way, we remind ourselves of why we love it.
Paul Ryan
But the equipment to protect the players hasn’t developed along with that, so now you have more players out with worse injuries, for longer periods of time.
Leigh Steinberg
It’s an honor to support such a worthy program. TURF aims to protect the integrity of tailgating and to keep game day family-friendly.
Boomer Esiason
I don’t have children, but we all want to protect whatever we love in life.
Shirley Henderson
I knew that there was an underlying thing there that I was never really able to come face to face with. There’s a part of me that wants to always protect myself because of what I had gone through. But I learned that you have to let people in. Going to the therapist kind of helped me with that.
LaToya Jackson
There are plenty of laws to protect guys’ money even in war time but there’s nothing on the books says a man’s life’s his own.
Dalton Trumbo
See, if you look at the drug war from a purely economic point of view, the role of the government is to protect the drug cartel. That’s literally true.
Milton Friedman
The problem is to find a form of association which will defend and protect with the whole common force the person and goods of each associate, and in which each, while uniting himself with all, may still obey himself alone, and remain as free as before.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Men love liberty because it protects them from control and humiliation by others, thus affording them the possibility of dignity; they loathe liberty because it throws them back on their own abilities and resources, thus confronting them with the possibility of insignificance.
Thomas Szasz
I don’t believe that anyone can see the Grand Canyon area for themselves and not know that we have to do everything we can to protect it for future generations.
Nolan Gould
If you hold yourself dear, protect yourself well.
Gautama Buddha
Being captive to quarterly earnings isn’t consistent with long-term value creation. This pressure and the short term focus of equity markets make it difficult for a public company to invest for long-term success, and tend to force company leaders to sacrifice long-term results to protect current earnings.
Charles Koch
In addition the bill would expand an existing law “conscience clause” that protects physician training programs that refuse to provide training for abortion procedures.
Ken Calvert
Why has it seemed that the only way to protect the environment is with heavy-handed government regulation?
Gale Norton
You know the expression ‘God protects fools and drunks’? I qualify for both.
Lou Reed
Here in USA we respect someone’s rights, and as we profess tolerance, we shouldn’t change – or have to change – our basic views on the sanctity of marriage. I believe in the sanctity of marriage. I think it’s very important that we protect marriage as an institution, between a man and a woman.
George W. Bush
My responsibility is to save Tibet, to protect its ancient cultural heritage.
Dalai Lama
In the 1990’s, a time of corporate capital’s global ascendancy, the mildest restraints on its prerogatives have been peremptorily rejected. Automatically, under this designation, measures to protect national cultural industries, for example, have been ruled unacceptable infringements of “free trade.”
Herbert Schiller
We need to keep our eye on ISIS. That’s why I want to have an intelligence surge that protects us here at home, why we have to go after them from the air, on the ground, online, why we have to make sure here at home we don’t let terrorists buy weapons.
Hillary Clinton
God will not protect you from anything that will make you more like Jesus.
Elisabeth Elliot
I feel that our country’s real heroes are our brave soldiers who leave their families to protect our land.
Sonu Sood
The intelligence activities undertaken by the United States government are lawful, necessary and required to protect Americans from terrorist attacks.
Dana Perino
I suppose that one of the reasons I wrote “In Contempt” was because of the money. After the trial I came to realize that there were things that I needed to do if I was to protect myself and my family, so there were some selfish reasons for it.
Christopher Darden
The natural world is a gift that we have the obligation to treasure and use carefully. It is our moral responsibility to protect it from damage, and to pass it on to our heirs in good condition. To do less is to dishonor the Giver and the gift.
Frederick Victor Grey Wymark
I read every script from beginning to end, and I read every draft that I can. I like the show, I like the character, and I want to protect both of those things.
Victoria Pratt
Men and women have served and died to protect American democracy, but their sacrifice will be for naught if that democracy dies from the poison the Supreme Court has injected into our political organs.
Jennifer Granholm
Leadership is a choice to protect the person to the left of us, and protect the person to the right of us, and sometimes that may come at a cost. It may cost us our benefits, it may cost us our comfort, it may sometimes cost us our perks, whatever it is, credit.
Simon Sinek
Your greatest asset is your paycheck. Disability insurance protects you and your family if you are unable to work by providing income which will help pay your bills and take care of your family. It’s just as important as life insurance.
Dave Ramsey
Citizens of the democratic societies should undertake a course of intellectual self defense to protect themselves from manipulation and control, and to lay the basis for meaningful democracy.
Noam Chomsky

The undisturbed coastal plain is home to a wide variety of plants and animals and is the only wilderness sanctuary in North America that protects a complete range of the arctic ecosystem.
Dan Lipinski
Now Bella, you know Jacob adores you. He naturally wants to protect you. He literally worships the ground you walk on.” “Ha ha,” Bella said dryly. “Earth demon. Worship the ground. Cute. Really cute.
Jacquelyn Frank
Because marriage is a sacred institution and the foundation of society, it should not be redefined by activist judges. For the good of families, children and society, I support a constitutional amendment to protect the institution of marriage.
George W. Bush
I know I’m sane I don’t give a care for the crown or the shield I will not protect you or happily yield To the one who makes me come undone
Feist
A lot of subjects blend into the same thing: intolerance. When you’re a little kid, you don’t know that it’s going to get better. Your life experience hasn’t told you that. I want to protect those people. I want to send out a message and at least try to get that across.
Michael Buble
It’s an honor to support such a worthy program.TURF aims to protect the integrity of tailgating and to keep game day family-friendly.
Boomer Esiason
My central focus is what are we doing to protect the American people and the American homeland? Afghanistan and Pakistan are critical elements in that process.
Barack Obama
This was an evil beyond thinking. The killing of a man was not so evil as the killing of a boat. For a boat does not have sons, and a boat cannot protect itself, and a wounded boat does not heal.
John Steinbeck
What we love, we protect. This story will delight children and parents alike, who care for what they love.
Zoe Weil
I live my life like anybody else, and people choose to write about mine. And what they write I can’t control – when they write lies at least – because the laws can’t really protect you unless you can prove malicious intent. So I just choose not to read it.
Ashton Kutcher
Well, the U.N. Security Council resolution 1973 is very clear. It says all necessary measures to be taken to protect civilians and civilian areas. I mean, that to me is very clear.
Mike Jackson
Sometimes, his methods and his motives are questionable and even his morals are questionable in the way he does things. But I think his intention is always to protect his daughter.
Victor Garber
The wall of silence in the Interior Ministry, which protects those who are widely believed to have ordered this and similar crimes, remains intact.
Garry Robbins
Every walker is a guard on patrol to protect the ineffable.
Rebecca Solnit
Gasoline prices are soaring through the stratosphere, and the Federal Trade Commission, which is supposed to be standing up for the consumer, ought to stop playing footsie with the oil companies and take steps to protect the American people.
Ron Wyden
We need to protect the same amount of cognitive liberty in an age where you can invade people’s thoughts without physically intruding into their homes than you did at the time of the framing.
Jeffrey Rosen
I also believe that academic freedom should protect the right of a professor or student to advocate Marxism, socialism, communism, or any other minority viewpoint – no matter how distasteful to the majority, provided…
Richard M. Nixon
Kuwait will continue to be the final goal, her words will keep being the standing point.. Who works for her, nurtures her rights, protects her , and puts her before himself, will be in God’s highest ranks.
Jaber Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah
The central genius of the American Constitution lies in its use of structure to protect individual liberty. It does not rely solely, or even primarily, on grants of substantive rights.
William Barr
I will protect all Colombians regardless of whether the attacks come from guerrillas or paramilitaries.
Alvaro Uribe
When we safeguard (the heavenly virtue of freedom), when we honor it, when we protect it, we will walk with Washington, we will pray with patriots, and we shall have peace on earth, good will to men.
Thomas S. Monson
We need a president who is going to understand what actionable intelligence looks like and act on it. And we need a president and a cabinet who understands that the first and most important priority of the president of the United States is to protect the safety and security of Americans.
Chris Christie
I dont believe that anyone can see the Grand Canyon area for themselves and not know that we have to do everything we can to protect it for future generations.
Nolan Gould
This is a time when the protections of Americans’ liberties are directly at risk, as are the checks and balances that have served to constrain abuses of power for more than 200 years. The Supreme Court is relied upon by all of to us protect our fundamental rights.
Patrick Leahy
Marshal Petain’s Vichy regime looked like that new start. A couple of years later, it wasn’t so evident that he was going to be able to protect them from German extortions, and it didn’t look so much as though they had won the war, either. And so by ’43, a lot of people are shifting sides.
Robert O. Paxton
My mother never, ever told me about evilness. She only saw the beautiful things… she wanted to protect me from it.
Diane von Furstenberg
As an elder of the Americas and of the rest of the planet, it is my responsibility to care for and protect, to the best of my ability, the young.
Alice Walker
They [Mark and Jay Duplass] both have young kids and talk about parenting all the time. So they get it. So they knew that it was a very delicate time and they knew that it was a lot. All it did was make me want to protect them from – and protect production from – any kind of burden.
Amanda Peet
The right wants to destroy the power of the Fed to increase the power of finance; and the progressives want to reorient the Fed so that it will stop protecting the interests of finance and protect the interests of the broader population instead.
Gerald Epstein
As an adventurer…I try to protect against the downside. I make sure I have covered as many eventualities as I can. In the end, you have to take calculated risks; otherwise you’re going to sit in mothballs all day and do nothing.
Richard Branson
Let us be renewed by God’s mercy … and let us become agents of this mercy, channels through which God can water the earth, protect all creation and make justice and peace flourish.
Pope Francis
The veterans of our military services have put their lives on the line to protect the freedoms that we enjoy. They have dedicated their lives to their country and deserve to be recognized for their commitment.
Judd Gregg
What I’m OK with is protecting the American people. What I’m OK with is, when people have the intent to come to this country and take American lives, that we are prepared to do what’s necessary to gain the information to protect the people of this country.
Mike Pence
Caring for your heart is also how you protect your relationship with God… [The heart] is where we commune with him. It is where we hear his voice. Most of the folks I know who have never heard God speak to them are the same folks who live far from their hearts.
John Eldredge
I’m a warrior if you try to hurt my family. And anybody I see getting it in the neck out there, I’m right there to protect them. I’m a big, strong guy who knows what he’s doing. I’ve stopped a lot of things in the street, stopped a lot of people from getting hurt.
Paul Sorvino
It is the least represented among us who will be the most affected first. We have a moral responsibility to protect them.
Don Cheadle
When you’re entrusted with a tradition, you’ve got to protect it.
George Steinbrenner
The toy business began to drive the [Lucasfilm] empire. It’s a shame. They make three times as much on toys as they do on films. It’s natural to make decisions that protect the toy business, but that’s not the best thing for making quality films.

The bad thing about falling into pieces is that it hurts. The good thing about it is that once you’re lying there in shards you’ve got nothing left to protect, and so have no reason not to be honest
David James Duncan

Neil Strauss

John of the Cross

Isabelle Adjani

Doc Hastings
Congress must go further to protect the right to privacy, to end the NSA’s dragnet surveillance of ordinary Americans, to make the intelligence community more transparent and accountable.
Elizabeth Warren
The hole in the ozone layer is a kind of skywriting. At first it seemed to spell out our continuing complacency before a witch’s brew of deadly perils. But perhaps it really tells of a newfound talent to work together to protect the global environment.
Carl Sagan
From a man who fights like crazy, arouses me like no other, is the sexiest thing I’ve ever seen. From the man who plays me sexy music, gives me his t-shirt to sleep in, protects me as fiercely as a lion, and yet won’t take me when I’m naked and trembling in his arms.
Katy Evans
Protect your spirit, because you are in the place where spirits get eaten.
John Trudell
One usually dies because one is alone, or because one has got into something over one’s head. One often dies because one does not have the right alliances, because one is not given support. In Sicily the Mafia kills the servants of the State that the State has not been able to protect.
Giovanni Falcone
How can we keep the government we create from becoming a Frankenstein that will destroy the very freedom we establish it to protect? Freedom is a rare and delicate plant.

Jamaal Bowman
We need enormous pockets, pockets big enough for our families and our friends, and even the people who aren’t on our lists, people we’ve never met but still want to protect. We need pockets for boroughs and for cities, a pocket that could hold the universe.
Jonathan Safran Foer
Maybe honeymoons are God’s anesthesia. Like the “laughing gas” used by dentists, perhaps honeymoons are designed to protect us from a bit of the pain and fear involved in doing something that, while scary and uncomfortable, is for our own good in the long run.
Sue Thoele

Phyllis Schlafly
The more familiar people are with the ecosystem that lives below the surface – invisible until you’re actually in the ocean – the more likely they are to do what they can to protect it.
Jon Bowermaster
I’ll be honest with you. I’m a little bit of a loner. It’s been a big part of my maturing process to learn to allow people to support me. I tend to be very self-reliant and private. And I have this history of wanting to work things out on my own and protect people from what’s going on with me.
Kerry Washington
Americans cannot be the policemen of the world. We cannot protect countries all over the world.
Donald Trump
We don’t talk about sources and methods. Don’t talk about ongoing intelligence operations. I know there’s speculation. But it’s important for the American people to understand that I will use my powers to protect us, and I will do so under the law, and that’s important for our citizens to understand.
George W. Bush
We cannot protect our children from life. Therefore, it is essential to prepare them for it. Feeling sorry for children is one of the most seriously damaging attitudes we can have. It so greatly demonstrates to them and to ourselves that we lack faith in them and their ability to cope with adversities.
Rudolf Dreikurs
It is imperative for us to protect the flora and fauna around us.
Anand Mahindra
As chief elections officer, it’s my job to protect the integrity of the ballot.
Kate Brown
I’m not a feminist,’ some women say sternly as they march off to work where equal opportunity legislation protects them … Women who say they are not feminists and act like individuals with basic human rights have just got their terminology wrong.
Kaz Cooke
The role of the federal government is to protect our liberties. That means they should protect our religious liberties to do what we want; our intellectual liberty, but it also should protect our right to do to our body what we want, you know, what we take into our bodies.
Ron Paul
Courts have long recognized the federal government’s robust power to inspect people and goods entering the country. After all, the very foundation of national sovereignty is a nation’s ability to protect its borders.
Bob Barr
Many of us have unconsciously erected barriers to protect ourselves from failing or succeeding. We may think we’re protecting ourselves by denying our creative impulses, but all we’re doing is burying our authentic selves alive.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz
You don’t need an AR-15. It’s harder to aim, it’s harder to use, and in fact, you don’t need 30 rounds to protect yourself. Buy a shotgun. Buy a shotgun.
Joe
I felt a splinter of guilt wedge into my heart. Charlotte had hurt me; in return, I’d hurt Rob. Maybe that’s what we do to the people we love: take shots in the dark and realize too late we’ve wounded the people we’re trying to protect.
Jodi Picoult
You protect your being when you love yourself better. That’s the secret.
Isabelle Adjani
I think we’re different, but we are very similar in a lot of ways, and we really complement each other in real life and on screen. Cameron [Diaz], for me, is like the teacher. And Kate’s [Uptone] like my daughter. She’s only five years older than my daughter, and so, I always wanted to protect her.
Leslie Mann

Men have a psychological need to show off their courage and strength. When he sees you talking to another guy, that instinct kicks in and he jumps to protect you and prove he’s worthy of your love.
Helen Fisher
What everybody misses here is that we are doing the same thing my father did. He licensed and litigated and protected his property, and we have to follow the same tradition, because the way the law reads, if you dont protect it, you lose it.
Dexter Scott King
This is the true lesson of our history: war, preparation for war, and foreign military interventions have served for the most part not to protect us, as we are constantly told, but rather to sap our economic vitality and undermine our civil and economic liberties.
Robert Higgs
How do we prevent attacks? How do we protect our people?I think we’ve got to have an intelligence surge, where we are looking for every scrap of information.
Hillary Clinton
Through electing officials that will protect the Constitution and commit themselves to the rights of the people and the health of the nation, we will be able to ensure that no group of ideologues and no private sector institution can coopt our rights, take us into senseless wars and steal the nation from its people.
Harry Belafonte
Most people aren’t sure what’s going to happen on a first date. Given that ambiguity, every woman must be totally aware at every moment that she is responsible for every choice she makes… protect yourselves. See trouble coming.
Camille Paglia
I wasn’t getting the responses I hoped for. You can’t protect yourself from other judgments.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
The responsibility of a minister is to step aside when there is a criminal investigation of the department. That protects the propriety of Parliament and of responsible government.

Dorothy Denning
The eco-movement is growing as people all over catch on to the need to protect our precious planet, which makes the future look really bright – and makes me really happy.

Poor Lucas, always trying to protect me from danger. He’d never guessed that I was the dangerous one.
Claudia Gray
We as Republicans understand that we have got to protect these… entitlement programs – these entitlement programs for our seniors today. And we have to sit down and have a discussion. We need more ideas on the table.
Eric Cantor

The white man’s God cannot love our people or He would protect them. They seem to be orphans who can look nowhere for help. How then can we be brothers?
Chief Seattle

Hillary Clinton
There is virtue in virtuosity, especially today, when it protects us from the tedious spectacle of ineptitude.
Robert Hughes
There are always reasons for people’s behaviour, and it’s easy just to dismiss them and assume that we already know their story, especially if they’re no good at showing their emotions. Life gives you all these knocks, it’s so easy to form a shell to protect yourself. I’ve done it myself.
Kate Dickie
He [Brian Fraser] told me that a man must be responsible for any see he sows, for it’s his duty to take care of a woman and protect her. And if I wasna prepared to do that, then I’d no right to burden a woman with the consequences of my own actions.
Diana Gabaldon
For me one of the most important things is not feeling like you have to protect yourself if you’re with a real friend.
Rebecca Stead

Radhanath Swami
Daisy has a unique spirit. A warm and romantic nature. If she is forced into a loveless marriage, she will be devastated. She deserves a husband who will cherish her for everything she is, and who will protect her from the harsher realities of the world. A husband who will allow her to dream.” -Westcliff
Lisa Kleypas
All, too, will bear in mind this sacred principle, that though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail, that will to be rightful must be reasonable; that the minority possess their equal rights, which equal law must protect, and to violate would be oppression.
Thomas Jefferson
The launch of phase 1 Ebola vaccine studies is a first step in developing a vaccine that could be licensed and used in the field to protect not only the front line health care workers but also those living in areas where Ebola virus exists.
Anthony Fauci
Extreme narcissists exaggerate their achievements and t

Extreme narcissists exaggerate their achievements and talents, and so Trump has spent his life building up a false image of himself – not just for others, but for himself, to protect his deeply fragile ego. He lies endlessly, not just in the way sociopaths do, which is to con others, but also to delude himself.
George T. Conway III
Those who would give us a “living” Constitution are actually giving us a dead one, since such a thing is completely unable to protect us against the encroachments of government power.

Eve Ensler
I have always taken the view that sometimes war may be justified, as police action can be justified, to protect the weak and vulnerable (a major preoccupation in scripture). But this is an old and difficult question and very wise people take different views.
N. T. Wright
As a free-speech advocate, I believe that adults should have access to any material they want. As a parent, and a community member, I think people should be able to protect their homes from imagery – much of it violent – that is, I feel, a form of child abuse when adult society inflicts it upon children.
Naomi Wolf
I hope for your help to explore and protect the wild ocean in ways that will restore the health and, in so doing, secure hope for humankind. Health to the ocean means health for us.
Sylvia Earle
What advice would I give the average homeowner to protect himself against burglars? Well, the first thing is to keep a light on in the house when you go out. It must be at least a sixty-watt bulb; anything less and the burglar will ransack the house, out of contempt for the wattage.
Woody Allen

Public opinion actually applauds the young woman venturing into the business world, but it still obstinately (and quite illogically) protects the young man in his sacred right to know nothing of housework.
Crystal Eastman
Heaven, they say, protects children, sailors, and drunken men; and whatever answers to Heaven in the academical system protects freshmen.

Brian Kemp
My unhappiness protects me from life.
Orhan Pamuk
We adults protect ourselves with laws, police, workplace regulations and social norms and there is no conceivable reason why children should be left more vulnerable, other that laziness or callousness in considering what life is like from their point of view.
Steven Pinker
I am determined to use competition law to protect European industry and consumers.
Neelie Kroes
The main lesson to be learned from the Love Canal crisis is that in order to protect public health from chemical contamination, there needs to be a massive outcry–a choir of voices–by the American people demanding change.
Lois Gibbs
The origins of poetry are clearly rooted in obscurity, in secretiveness, in incantation, in spells that must at once invoke and protect, tell the secret and keep it.

Alejandra Deheza
I only want to protect animals from barbarous, cruel, inhuman and backward rituals.

To develop patience, you need someone who willfully hurts you. Such people give us real opportunities to practice tolerance. They test our inner strength in a way that even our guru cannot. Basically, patience protects us from being discouraged.
Dalai Lama
For me, family always comes first I would do anything to protect them.
Mark Wahlberg
It’s perfectly reasonable and responsible policy for any nation to maintain its sovereignty, to protect its borders. And [Donald] Trump does not believe in ending immigration. He’s never proposed that.

Whenever Canada moves to protect its own industries and people, it is subjected to violent attacks in the U.S. Congress and to threats of economic retaliation.
Judy LaMarsh
Torture gives you reliable and unreliable information. That’s the reason why most people in the world don’t do it. So this idea that you have to torture people in order to protect national security is a false argument, and I reject it.
John McCain
I think most Americans understand that radical Islam can’t be compromised with or appeased. And the only way we can be safe is to form partnerships over there that will protect us over here.
Lindsey Graham
For power can guarantee the interests of some men but it can never foster the good of man. Power always protects the good of some at the expense of all the others. Only love can attain and preserve the good of all. Any claim to build the security of all on force is a manifest imposture.
Thomas Merton
I’d do a lot of things to protect you.
Richelle Mead

Octavia Butler
A polite enemy is just as difficult to discredit, as a rude friend is to protect.
Bryant H. McGill
It just seems to be a human trait to want to protect the speech of people with whom we agree. For the First Amendment, that is not good enough. So it is really important that we protect First Amendment rights of people no matter what side of the line they are on.
Floyd Abrams
We must not condemn to frustration those whose job it is to protect us by failing to provide them with the necessary resources to meet the threats they face.
Joe Lieberman
You didn’t have to come after me.” “Yes, I did,” he said. “You’re far too inexperienced to protect yourself in a hostile situation without me.” “That’s sweet. Maybe I’ll forgive you.” “Forgive me? Fro what?” “Fro telling me to shut up.” His eyes narrowed. “I did not… Well, I did, But you were-” “Never mind.

Ronald Reagan
Obviously, guns are a way to protect yourself.
Sam Trammell
Sundance started with two acres back in 1963 that I bought from a sheepherder for $500. What has happened, I could see development starting to descend on the state of Utah. I thought I had better acquire more land to protect it. I thought that would probably be my legacy, to protect land.
Robert Redford

Winston Churchill
He who tries to protect himself from deception is often cheated, even when most on his guard.

Ben Rhodes
Monsieur Saint Laurent was pathologically shy, and he made the Saint Laurent woman in his own image. Like her, I am shy. And to protect myself, I adopted something of an androgynous look, just as his women did.
Carine Roitfeld
I think more awareness is very important so women can learn how to protect themselves. As a fourth-degree black-belt, I learned from a young age that you need to be confident and be able to defend yourself, and that’s something that we should start to implement for a lot of women.
Nia Sanchez
In England the judges should have independence to protect the people against the crown. Here the judges should not be independent of the people, but be appointed for not more than seven years. The people would always re-elect the good judges.
Andrew Jackson
You can’t protect yourself. No matter how safe you think you are. No matter how much precaution you take, the rodents always find a way in.’ (Kiara)
Sherrilyn Kenyon

Wendell Phillips
Nobody can protect anybody else from vileness. Or from pain. All you can do is not let it break you in half and keep on going until you get to the other side.
Peter Straub
There’s an importance of keeping an open mind. The brain is programmed to protect us, and that can mean imposing limits on what it thinks we can or should do. Constantly push at those limits, because the brain can be way too cautious.
Chrissie Wellington
But if the UN cannot or will not revise its rules in ways that establish beyond question the legality of the measures the United States must take to protect the American people, then we should unashamedly and explicitly reject the jurisdiction of these rules.
Richard Perle
Freedom of expression is a very essential condition for me to make any art. Also, it is an essential value for my life. I have to protect this right and also to fight for the possibility.
Ai Weiwei
I’m generalizing, but women, being so connected to life, tend to have stronger intuition is stronger because they are trained to be on the look-out and protect. Men do that too, but there’s a different quality to women.
Peter Buffett
Facts have proved that prosperity at the expense of the environment is only delaying disaster. We cannot passively protect our environment by simply stopping economic development.
Zhou Shengxian

Dan Maffei
I think we close our psychic field so that we can protect ourselves from the vast and unpredictable energies of the universe.
Neale Donald Walsch
Asia is rising economically – and is thirsty for oil. The price pressures on oil and oil price shocks, due to Asia’s economic rise, mean that all steps made now to reduce oil dependence will protect us from pain and volatility later.
