Government does not solve problems; it subsidizes them.

If I'd gotten the job I wanted at Montgomery Ward, I suppose I would never have left Illinois.

We could say the government spend like drunken sailors, but that would be unfair to drunken sailors, because the sailors are spending their own money.

In this springtime of hope, some lights seem eternal; America's is.

Sometimes when I'm faced with an atheist, I am tempted to invite him to the greatest gourmet dinner that one could ever serve, and when we have finished eating that magnificent dinner, to ask him if he believes there's a cook.

Man is not free unless government is limited.

There are no constraints on the human mind, no walls around the human spirit, no barriers to our progress except those we ourselves erect.
