Al Gore citáty a výroky

Al Gore: Citáty anglicky

“The strength of American democracy is shown most clearly through the difficulties it can overcome.”

Quotes, Concession speech (2000)
Kontext: I know that many of my supporters are disappointed. I am too. But our disappointment must be overcome by our love of country.
And I say to our fellow members of the world community, let no one see this contest as a sign of American weakness. The strength of American democracy is shown most clearly through the difficulties it can overcome.

“For the first time in American history, the Executive Branch of our government has not only condoned but actively promoted the treatment of captives in wartime that clearly involves torture, thus overturning a prohibition established by General George Washington during the Revolutionary War.”

Quotes, The Assault on Reason (2007)
Kontext: For the first time in American history, the Executive Branch of our government has not only condoned but actively promoted the treatment of captives in wartime that clearly involves torture, thus overturning a prohibition established by General George Washington during the Revolutionary War.
It is too easy — and too partisan — to simply place the blame on the policies of President George W. Bush. We are all responsible for the decisions our country makes. We have a Congress. We have an independent judiciary. We have checks and balances. We are a nation of laws. We have free speech. We have a free press. Have they all failed us? Why has America's public discourse become less focused and clear, less reasoned? Faith in the power of reason — the belief that free citizens can govern themselves wisely and fairly by resorting to logical debate on the basis of the best evidence available, instead of raw power — remains the central premise of American democracy. This premise is now under assault.

“It was clear to me that men and women were equal — if not more so.”

A joke used during his campaign speeches, about childhood impressions of hearing his parents arguing; as quoted in "Gore Campaign, Trailing Among Women, Sharpens Its Pitch to Them" by Melinda Henneberger in The New York Times (6 July 1999) http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9E02E2DE1E3DF935A35754C0A96F958260&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=all
As quoted in "The 2000 Campaign : The Vice President" by David Barstow in The New York Times (12 August 2000) http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9404EFD6153FF931A2575BC0A9669C8B63.
Varianta: When my sister and I were growing up, there was never any doubt in our minds that men and women were equal, if not more so.

“The day I made that statement, I was tired because I had been up all night inventing the Camcorder.”

Joking about reports that he had claimed to have invented the internet, as quoted in The Boston Globe (9 April 1999).

“Please don't recount this vote.”

Webby Lifetime Achievement Award acceptance speech http://www.webbyawards.com/press/speeches.php (limited to 5 words) (6 June 2005).

“I have ridden the mighty moon-worm!”

Guest appearance on Futurama episode "Crimes of the Hot" (10 November 2002).
