Everyone plagiarizes me. Ever since I wrote my autobiography.

I believe the American people have a genuine and justifiable fear of government intrusion in what they instinctively know is going to be an ever more intrusive world.

You want to know whether we're better off? I've got a little bumper sticker for you: Osama bin Laden is dead and General Motors is alive. Osama bin Laden is dead and General Motors is alive! Osama bin Laden is dead and General Motors is alive!

I would be surprised if Donald Trump got elected.

In this world, emotion has become suspect - the accepted style is smooth, antiseptic and passionless.

Our future cannot depend on the government alone. The ultimate solutions lie in the attitudes and the actions of the American people.

To me this is the first principle of life, the foundational principle, and a lesson you can't learn at the feet of any wise man: Get up! The art of living is simply getting up after you've been knocked down.
