(May make this a weekly feature - promoted by Mike)
Some of these have popped up before around here. But here are some notable NH quotes from the past week.
Ken Burns comments on WWII vs. the "War on Terror":
Asked about the contrast between today's home front and World War II, Burns called the latter, "the greatest collective effort in the history of our country."
Common sacrifice is lacking today, he said.
"We now have a military class in this country that suffers apart and alone, whereas there wasn't a family on any street in America that wasn't in some way touched by the war," he said.
"When 9/11 happened what were you asked to do? Nothing. Go shopping. That's what we were told," Burns said. "Go shopping. It's ridiculous. Nobody said, 'This is a war born of oil, turn your thermostats down five degrees.'"
"Hodes and Shea-Porter each spent Thanksgiving week in New Hampshire
after a week in Washington, D.C., for an orientation session and a
caucus to elect the Democratic leadership. Next week, they will join
other freshman lawmakers at the Institute of Politics at Harvard
University's Kennedy School of Government; former New Hampshire
governor Jeanne Shaheen serves as director of the institute."
"We took Congress 101 at Washington" last week, Hodes said. "The
Kennedy School is Congress 102." (h/t Dean)
Luc E. Monzies on his work at the Peterborough Union Mill project (behind Sentinel pay-wall, sorry):
"I'm a capitalist communist. I'm into free enterprise, but with the whole community in mind. Everything I do I try to think about the seven generations down the line, and the whole community."
Andy Smith on the last hope of the NH GOP: Massachusetts immigrants.
"People moving here from Massachusetts are the only reason that New Hampshire is staying as Republican as it is" says Andy Smith, head of the survey center.
