More quotes by Barry Goldwater
The Conservative knows that to regard man as part of an undifferentiated mass is to consign him to ultimate slavery.
Barry Goldwater
And here we encounter the seeds of government disaster and collapse - the kind that wrecked ancient Rome and every other civilization that allowed a sociopolitical monster called the welfare state to exist.
Barry Goldwater
I certainly believe in aliens in space, and that they are indeed visiting our planet. They may not look like us, but I have very strong feelings that they have advanced beyond our mental capabilities.
Barry Goldwater
While I am a great believer in the free enterprise system and all that it entails, I am an even stronger believer in the right of our people to live in a clean and pollution-free environment.
Barry Goldwater
The best thing Clinton could do — I think I wrote him a letter about this, but I'm not sure — is to shut up. Every time I turn that radio on, there's Clinton, making a speech. And he makes speeches on a subject he doesn't know anything about. He has no discipline.
Barry Goldwater
I will offer a choice, not an echo.

At this sunset hour, the canyon walls are indescribably beautiful and I fear the magic of photography can never record what I see now. The tall spires near the canyon's top and the walls of the canyon up there look as if God had reached out and swiped a brush of golden paint across them, gilding these rocks in the bright glow of the setting sun.

The big thing is to make this country - quit discriminating against people just because they're gay. You don't have to agree with it, but they have a constitutional right to be gay. They're American citizens.
Barry Goldwater
In your heart you know he's right.

Hubert Humphrey talks so fast that listening to him is like trying to read Playboy magazine with your wife turning the pages.
Barry Goldwater
After one of his [Hubert Humphrey] long-winded harangues I suggested he had probably been vaccinated with a phonograph needle. He responded by saying that I would have been a great success in the movies working for Eighteenth Century-Fox.
Barry Goldwater
I think some highly secret government UFO investigations are going on that we don't know about--and probably never will unless the Air Force discloses them.
Barry Goldwater
If everybody in this town connected with politics had to leave town because of chasing women and drinking, you would have no government.
Barry Goldwater
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size.
Barry Goldwater
Sex and politics are a lot alike. You don't have to be good at them to enjoy them.
Barry Goldwater
I understand Jacqueline Kennedy has redone the White House in eighteenth-century style. Why, then, I'd fit in perfectly.
Barry Goldwater
I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws but to repeal them.
Barry Goldwater
When fraternities are not allowed, Communism flourishes. Young men who are inexperienced but have faith are more useful than older, experienced men without faith. The fraternity system is a bastion of American strength.
Barry Goldwater
I could have ended the war in a month. I could have made North Vietnam look like a mud puddle.
Barry Goldwater
Whether in families or in politics, a good observation: One can disagree without being disagreeable.
