More quotes by Jesse Ventura
That's why you need the war on drugs to put all these pot smokers in prison so that the prisons remain full and the corporations remain profitable. It's a slippery slope.
Jesse Ventura
My attitude when I'm in Mexico is I wake up in the morning with nothing to do and I go to bed half done. I don't wear a watch. When I live down there, I do nothing according to time. I eat when I'm hungry and go to sleep when I'm tired.
Jesse Ventura
What do we have for veterans? Government-run health care. I understand that. Congressmen and senators... they get five choices of government-run health care. Why should a congressman and senator get anything more than a regular citizen does? Why are they privileged and the rest of us aren't?
Jesse Ventura
My four years as governor, I never met with a lobbyist once, never. Not one lobbyist got in my office.
Jesse Ventura
The Mexican government understands that when you turn 65, your ability to earn money diminishes. They don't want you kicked out of your house that you've worked your whole life for, no matter what that house is.
Jesse Ventura
I have every right to know how my taxes are spent, how every single penny of it is spent. I have the right to know that.
Jesse Ventura
I think that Minnesota is different because we are proving that tri-partisan government could work, that you do not need to necessarily be a Democrat or a Republican to be successful at governing.
Jesse Ventura
As governor, there isn't a lot I can do beyond that to crack down on crime. Law enforcement is really a local issue. It's the cops' job to tighten down on criminals.
Jesse Ventura
Government is connected to everything we do.
Jesse Ventura
I wish everyone in this country could magically leave the country for six months and view the United States from the outside for six months, and I think you'd see a new perspective to the people of this country.
Jesse Ventura
I'm a warrior at heart I'm an ex-Navy Seal. I'm too old to wage war anymore, and so now I wage it mentally. And so I find politics very stimulating it's war without guns.
Jesse Ventura
I believe to go along to get along is unpatriotic. I believe that agreeing with your government on everything they do is unpatriotic. I believe a patriot stands up and holds your government's feet to the fire. Because if you do that, you will get good government.
Jesse Ventura
I never thought I'd be investigating global warming. I believe it's real and that saving the planet is good.
Jesse Ventura
You can drink yourself to death, you can smoke yourself to death, you can eat yourself to death.
Jesse Ventura
If you were to come to Minnesota, I could have you locked up like that. That's power.
Jesse Ventura
I like surfing in Mexico a whole lot better than sitting with people in Washington that I don't even like.
Jesse Ventura
Our military doesn't defend our American people. Our military is the strong-arm muscle of corporations.
Jesse Ventura
Organized religion is a sham and a crutch for weak-minded people
Jesse Ventura
I don't think I would want the responsibility for enforcing the death penalties. There's always the inevitable question of whether someone you gave the order to execute might truly have been innocent.
Jesse Ventura
You need to hunt something that can shoot back at you to really classify yourself as a hunter. You need to understand the feeling of what it's like to go into the field and know your opposition can take you out.
