The more prosperity you have, the quicker you ... attract the looters and the plunderers.... And so when a country becomes richer it falls apart sooner.

A traffic jam is a collision between free enterprise and socialism. Free enterprise produces automobiles faster than socialism can build roads and road capacity.

[Freedom is] the societal condition that exists when every individual has 100% control of his own property.

The cheap but simple human emotion of envy is the driving force of all socialism, of all anti-capitalist philosophy. It is the mark of the intellectual.

The state has no wealth it hasn't stolen, and the state has no assets whatsoever, except those which individuals have created in the first place and the state has taken.

In capitalism, profit does not come out of another man's hardship; it comes out of new production of new wealth that's never existed before.

There's only one thing to do with politics, and that is to survive it.
