{"quotes":[{"text":"As I lay in bed trying to figure out the tangle I had gotten myself into, I realised temptation struck human beings in different forms. In the form of chocolates for children, drugs for young adults, bribe money for people in influential positions, and sometimes in the form of lust –like the kind I had been struck with. Human beings succumbed to this temptation despite knowing too well that they would suffer the consequences days, weeks, months or even years later.","author":"Jagdish Joghee","tags":["affair","bed","bribe","chocolate","drugs","extramarital","human","humanbeing","life","love","succumb","tangle","temptation"],"id":31388,"author_id":"Jagdish+Joghee"},{"text":"Pick a leader who will make their citizens proud. One who will stir the hearts of the people, so that the sons and daughters of a given nation strive to emulate their leader's greatness. Only then will a nation be truly great, when a leader inspires and produces citizens worthy of becoming future leaders, honorable decision makers and peacemakers. And in these times, a great leader must be extremely brave. Their leadership must be steered only by their conscience, not a bribe.","author":"Suzy Kassem","tags":["administration","airlines","bail","bail-out","banker","bankers","banking","banking-system","banks","best-leader","big-business","big-pharma","bipartisan","blood","books","brave","bravery","bribe","bridges","build-bridges","capitalism","censor","censorship","chaos","character","citizen","common-man","companies","confident","confident-leader","conscience","conservation","convergence","corporations","corrupt","corruption","country","critic","criticism","criticsm","darkness","decisionmakers","decison-makers","democrat","destruction","diplomacy","diplomatic","discriminate","discrimination","dissent","diversity","divide","divides","division","doctor","doctors","education","educators","election","elections","employment","environment","environmental","environmentalism","environmentalist","equality","ethnic-tolerance","fair","fairness","families","farmer","fear","for-the-people","foreign-relations","freedom","freedom-of-speech","funding","furture","future-leaders","good-leader","government","government-corruption","great-leader","great-leadership","great-nation","greatness","greed","guide","hands","hate","hatred","health-care","heart-driven","hearts","homes","honest","honest-broker","honorable","human-condition","human-life","humanity","humans","humble","hypocrisy","identify","ignorance","immaturity","immorality","improvement","incentives","indentifies","inspire","integrity","intellectualism","intelligent","job","jobs","justice","law","lawlessness","lead","leader","leaders","leadership","leadership-characteristics","leadership-traits","libraries","library","lie","lies","lobbyist","losing","love","make-america-great-again","man-on-the-street","mankind","monetary","monetary-profit","money","money-driven","morality","mortage","mortages","multinational","nation","oil","oil-tycoon","peace","peaceful","peacekeeper","peacemaker","peacemakers","people","pharma","pharmaceutical","pick-a-leader","picking-sides","political-science","politics","preservation","president","presidential","protection","public","race","race-tolerance","racism","religious-tolerance","republican","school","schools","scrutiny","secrecy","security","segregation","selecting","serves-the-people","silencing-dissent","sly","society","speech","spending","stability","street","street-level","strong","teacher","teachers","team","terror","tolerance","tolerate","transparency","truth","truthfulness","understand","understanding","unite","unites","uniting","unity","vote","voter","voting","walls","war","we-the-people","weapons","wisdom","word"],"id":77345,"author_id":"Suzy+Kassem"},{"text":"Corruption is not bribery but bribery is corruption.","author":"Auliq Ice","tags":["bribe","bribery","corruption"],"id":92292,"author_id":"Auliq+Ice"},{"text":"Pick a leader who is strong and confident, yet humble.
