More quotes by Jack Kemp
Conservatives define compassion not by the number of people who recieve some kind of government aid but rather by the number of people who no longer need it.
Jack Kemp
The Soviet Union represents a threat in terms of might. It is a joke in terms of its economy and what it has to offer the Third World - a laughingstock to countries that are looking for an economic-development model.
Jack Kemp
There really has not been a strong Republican message to either the poor or the African American community at large.
Jack Kemp
The chance to own a home chance to own an education chance to get access to capital. This is the real civil rights battle of the twenty-first century.
Jack Kemp
Taxes on capital, taxes on labor, inflation, bureaucratic regulation, minimum wage laws, are all - to different degrees - unnecessary slices of the wedge that stand between an individual's effort and reward for that effort.
Jack Kemp
Democracy is not a mathematical deduction proved once and for all time. Democracy is a just faith fervently held, commitment to be tested again and again in the fiery furnace of history.
Jack Kemp
The only law we broke was the Brezhnev doctrine that once a country is in the Soviet bloc it cannot be overthrown.
Jack Kemp
Economic growth doesn't mean anything if it leaves people out.
Jack Kemp
I can't help but care about the rights of the people I used to shower with.
Jack Kemp
I think it is important for all those young out there - who someday hope to play real football, where you throw it and kick it and run with it and put it in your hands - [that] a distinction should be made that football is democratic capitalism, whereas soccer is a European socialist sport.
Jack Kemp
I can't understand why the Democratic parties seem so hostile to economic growth and business.
Jack Kemp
I've been a kind of a wildcatter. I've been able to say anything I wanted.
Jack Kemp
The problem is that the economy isn't growing fast enough to accommodate the level of spending produced through the democratic process.
Jack Kemp
All too often the Democratic Party has taken the black vote for granted, and all too often the Republican Party has written it off.
Jack Kemp
I would be a fool to put my feet down in a position where I can't accommodate metamorphoses.
Jack Kemp
Councils of war breed timidity and defeatism.
Jack Kemp
I can't hide my feelings.
Jack Kemp
There are a lot of grotesqueries in politics, not the least of which is the fund-raising side.
Jack Kemp
Every team requires unity. A team has to move as one unit, one force, with each person understanding and assisting the roles of his teammates. If the team doesn't do this, whatever the reason, it goes down in defeat. You win or lose as a team, as a family.
Jack Kemp
There's always cause for concern if bad policies are pursued.
Jack Kemp
