Peace demands the most heroic labor and the most difficult sacrifice. It demands greater heroism than war. It demands greater fidelity to the truth and a much more perfect purity of conscience.
Thomas Merton
The world today has a strong democratic core shaped by American ingenuity, sacrifice, and spirit. But on the periphery are many unstable and dangerous places, where terrorists seek to impose a medieval dark age. As we learned so brutally and so personally...
Senator John Kerry
Fixing our healthcare system as a whole is our primary challenge, and to make it happen you need to get engaged – to pound the pavement, get your hands dirty, endure real sacrifice, take on antiquated thinking and help lead the public debate.
Senator John Kerry
We owe our troops the opportunity to serve in the best-planned, best-equipped, and best-led military force in the world, and we owe them the peace of mind that comes from knowing that they and their families will be taken care of if they sacrifice life, l...
Senator John Kerry
The American spirit wears no political label. In service to others and yes, in sacrifice for our country, there are no Republicans; there are no Democrats; there are only Americans.

The Roots of Violence: Wealth without work, Pleasure without conscience, Knowledge without character, Commerce without morality, Science without humanity, Worship without sacrifice, Politics without principles
Mahatma Gandhi
To accept Christ is to receive Him by faith as your Lord and Savior. But, strictly speaking, the great thing to see is that God has accepted Christ. He took our sins upon Himself, died to make propitiation (the sacrifice which removed the anger of God) fo...
H. A. Ironside
Crude absurdities, trivial nonsense, and sublime truths are equally potent in readying people for self-sacrifice if they are accepted as the sole, eternal truth

Mia Hamm
I wanted to remind people that the lowest types of humanity may have within them the capacity for supreme self-sacrifice. The dwarfed, misshapen beggar of the streets may have the noblest ideals. Most of my roles since The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1923/I)...
Lon Chaney
What`s the sacrifice that`s being asked of people who make more than $1 million per year? It`s the energy they have to expend opening the envelopes containing their tax cuts."
Bill Clinton
There is no love without suffering. I have a taste for a kind of melancholy and for being an absolute victim of love. To completely sacrifice myself until death.
Arielle Dombasle
I`m so sick of sarcasm and irony, I could kill! Sincerely, the real root of things is love and sacrifice. Everything else is an illusion. I`m not trying to preach here. I can`t tell anybody anything. But I will say, if you`re available to them, there are ...
Ben Foster

Adrien Brody

Anne Cahill
You sacrifice everything to start a new business. To have the thought of that taken away with no or minimal compensation is very frightening as a business owner.
Ann Wilkie
You have to sacrifice yourself. I don`t want to make a big deal about it, but you have to pay your dues. I wouldn`t have it any other way.
Daniel Berrigan
