More quotes by Ben Stein
Academic freedom is being lost by a great many people who dare to challenge Darwinism. That's a terrifying situation. That's contrary to the principles of science.
Ben Stein
I am back in LA now. And I keep thinking back to my time in New York after the bombings.... I was crying so much I could not see, and the other diners joined in, and I thought, What do you do with such atheistic evil?
Ben Stein
Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill strangers, their classmates, and themselves.
Ben Stein
The education system should teach us about money it's an incredibly big subject. I run into people all the time that don't have the first clue of what they should do about money.

I am a Jew, and every single one of my ancestors was Jewish. And it does not bother me even a little bit when people call those beautiful lit up, bejeweled trees Christmas trees. I don't feel threatened. I don't feel discriminated against.

I don't consider an actor a star if he's paid $20 million and grimaces in front of the camera and has a stunt man stand in for him. They may be fine actors, but they're not role models. The real stars are wearing body armor in 130-degree heat . . . They're getting shot at and they don't have any stunt doubles standing in for them.
Ben Stein
It isn't the rich people's fault that poor people are poor. Poor people who get an education and work hard in this country will stop being poor. That should be the goal for all poor people everywhere.
Ben Stein
I thought that all of the sacrifices and blessings of the whole history of mankind have devolved upon me. Thank you, God.
Ben Stein
It's a great stretch for me to do my game show. It's very hard. It's not me at all. The only part that's me is sort of when I'm sitting in the booth looking tormented. That's the only part that's the real me.
Ben Stein
Faith is not believing that God can. It is knowing that God will.
Ben Stein
It is inevitable that some defeat will enter even the most victorious life. The human spirit is never finished when it is defeated... it is finished when it surrenders.
Ben Stein
The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: decide what you want.
Ben Stein
The banks are not lending, at least from what I see. They were so wild and reckless back in the good times that they got burned terribly.
Ben Stein
It means zero to be against greed.
Ben Stein
I am scared of running out of money.
Ben Stein
Life lived to help others is the only life that matters.
Ben Stein
I am so used to having a comfortable life. What will it be like when I am no longer able to just buy anything I want?
Ben Stein
My pals, such as they are, in Hollywood, ask me why I love to travel to D.C. so much, why it's a vacation destination for me. I say, 'Because I sometimes have perfect days there.'
