But it is well to remember that we are dealing with nations every one of which has a direct individual interest to serve, and there is grave danger in an unshared idealism.

But this is the great danger America faces. That we will cease to be one nation and become instead a collection of interest groups: city against suburb, region against region, individual against individual. Each seeking to satisfy private wants.

The sublimated idealism of the Enlightenment, the spirit of the League of Nations and of the United Nations Charter have not proved strong enough to control the aggressive dynamism of nationalism.

Danger
There is danger atop our heads;
There is danger around us all;
There is danger beneath our feet;
There is danger to man and beast!
There is danger in the skies;
There is danger in the seas;
There is danger ev’n on land;
There is danger to man and beast!
There is danger from earth’s bowels;
There is danger in forests;
There is danger in hills, vales;
There is danger to man and beast!
There is danger from our brethren;
There is danger from kith, kin;
There is danger from strangers;
There is danger to man and beast!
There is danger within us;
There is danger from space;
There is danger to our soul;
Nevertheless, God protects us.

And when they do spin out of control there are important ramifications that affect America, not just its direct national interest but its broader interests as a nation which has thought of itself as a beacon to other nations, of freedom, liberty, democracy, whatever.

An individual, in promoting his own interest, may injure the public interest; a nation, in promoting the general welfare, may check the interest of a part of its members.

When dealing with people, let us remember we are not dealing with creatures of logic. We are dealing with creatures of emotion, creatures bustling with prejudices and motivated by pride and vanity.

But I was losing so much bone density that I would have been in grave danger. And I mean grave danger. If I had let it go just a few more years I could have broken my hip or spine just picking up my granddaughter.

Un Cult Of Multiculturalism
The UN mindless cult of multiculturalism caper,
Pompous political correctness wrapped up in fancy paper,
The United Nations will direct us where to go and what to do,
And please Canada, get to the back of the international queue.
Because special-interest groups have much more diversity and clout,
They know how their UN friends vote and what the UN is about,
And that big boatload of refugees doesn’t have citizenships yet,
You are not behaving in a proper UN manner, we regret.
And if you quit the UN, you will be an international disgrace,
We will find some weird little dictatorship to take your place,
Because democracies are not our favorite type of member,
If you looked around you may have noticed this, if you remember.

Club 'Kung-Fu'
What's up
Come on it's Friday evening
Can't wait to go to the party
I know a place where we all should go
Check out
Just around the corner
Best place can't be any cooler
Come along and enter to the party zone
No suburban angel
Been in lots of danger
Once even kicked Bruce Lee
Chorus:
Hey you, welcome to the party
Me and girls arefeeling kinda naughty
Dealing with hardcore fighting
Hangin' at the Club 'Kung-Fu'
Chill out, 'cos you're at the party
Me and girls already gettin' started
Dealing with hardcore fighting
Hangin' at the Club 'Kung-Fu'
Zoom this
You'll always remember
What you see can't get any better
Hottest people ever seen in whole downtown
Hear that
DJ playin' a record
Best thing after Def Leppard
Jump up, we'll be rockin' up this place
No suburban angel
Been in lots of danger
Once even kicked Bruce Lee
Chorus

I feel very strong as an individual, but as a famous footballer I know I am prone to certain things. All the media have a continuous interest for me. It varies from once a year to every day interest.

I remember now
I remember wanting it back
I remember all the boredom
I remember all the security
I remember holding myself back
I remember the want
I remember the denial
I remember getting it back
I discover all of the excitement
I discover all the new ways
I discover all the acceptance
I discover all of the interest
I discover all the greenest grass
I remember all of the dreams
I remember all the waiting
I remember all the uncertainty
I remember all the letting down
I remember what I ought not to have forgotten
I remember the limbo of my decisions
