When consumers purchase more goods, plants use more of their capacity, men are hired instead of laid off, investment increases, and profits are high. Corporate tax rates must also be cut to increase incentives and the availability of investment capital.

When things don't go well they like to blame presidents; and that's something that presidents are paid for.

If the economy of today were operating close to capacity levels with little unemployment, or if a sudden change in our military requirements should cause a scramble for men and resources, then I would oppose tax reductions as irresponsible and inflationary; and I would not hesitate to recommend a tax increase if that were necessary.

I would rather be accused of breaking precedents than breaking promises.

Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.

We hold the view that the people make the best judgment in the long run.

I want every American to be free to stand up for his rights, even if sometimes he has to sit down for them.
