I'd rather see a woman elected...They understand they can't spend more money than the old man brings home.

Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. And moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.

I thought of something my old coach at Staunton had often said: 'We win some, we lose some, and some get rained out; but we always suit up.'

[G]overnment can, instead of extending freedom, restrict freedom. And note ... that the 'can' quickly becomes 'will' the moment the holders of government power are left to their own devices. This is because of the corrupting influence of power, the natural tendency of men who possess some power to take unto themselves more power. The tendency leads eventually to the acquisition of all power - whether in the hands of one or many makes little difference to the freedom of those left on the outside.

We have enough trouble with women without giving them M16 rifles.

I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws but to repeal them.
