Capitalism, and capitalism alone, has rescued the human race from degrading poverty, rampant sickness and early death.

The most encouraging trend of our time is the widespread loss of faith in government. No longer do people look to the government as the great problem solver, economic planner, social unifier, or cultural czar. The government is more likely to be seen for what it is, a haven for grafters, liars, and would-be tyrants. Americans, like the Russians, no longer believe anything until it is officially denied.

American federalism was the embodiment of political tolerance and decentralization - the expression of the liberal conviction that society can manage itself and needs no central plan.

Above all, ascribe no decent motives to the federal government. Always and everywhere, it is the enemy of truth.

The state is and has been in history a source of disorder and chaos, and this problem gets worse the more the state grows.

Never underestimate the power of bad ideas. They must be refuted again and again.
