and courage, the truth is that in the presence of his

“The planet has a fever. If your baby has a fever, you go to the doctor.
If the doctor says you need to intervene here, you don’t say, ‘Well, I

crib’s on fire, you don’t speculate that the baby is flame-retardant.”
– Al Gore at a House hearing in Texas, March, 2007
