We must never forget what government is not. Government is not a philanthropic organization. Government is not the family. And government certainly is not the church.

More quotes by Michele Bachmann
The Holy Spirit is our comforter, our teacher. That's why, in prayer, we can ask the Lord to open up Scripture and make it come alive to us, to open our understanding. He left his Spirit with us until we join him in Heaven.
Michele Bachmann
A normal way that the American free market system has worked is that we have a process of unwinding. It's called bankruptcy. It doesn't mean, necessarily, that the industry is eclipsed or that it's gone. Often times, the phoenix rises out of the ashes.
Michele Bachmann
I believe that America is the indispensable nation of the world. Just the creation of this nation itself was a miracle.
Michele Bachmann
A man can do a television interview and roll out of bed 15 minutes before it's just not the same for a woman. A woman has to pay attention to her hair, makeup, clothing, and jewelry choices.
Michele Bachmann
Deprivation sometimes can be one of the most marvelous teachers.

They can get married. They can marry a man if they're a woman. Or they can marry a woman if they're a man... there are no special rights for people based upon your sex practices. There's no special rights based upon what you do in your sex life. You're an American citizen first and foremost and that's it.

People confuse compassion with government being compassionate with other people's money versus people being compassionate with their own money.
Michele Bachmann
I'm not a fool and I won't be taken for a ride. I will stand up for my self but at the same time I don't presume the worst and I don't see people coming at me with negativity. Until they do.
Michele Bachmann
You should get to keep every dollar that you earn. That's your money. That's not the government's money.

What I'm talking about is the order of deportation, the sequence of deportation. It is almost impossible to move 11 million illegal immigrants overnight. You do it in steps.
Michele Bachmann
I think that the American people are curious about who a candidate is, what their background is, who their family is, what their faith experience has been, their education, their work experience. All of those are factors that voters look at because they want to take a measure of the individual.
Michele Bachmann
Well, what I want them to know is, just like John Wayne was from Waterloo, Iowa, that's the kind of spirit that I have, too.
Michele Bachmann
All voodoo, nonsense, hokum, a hoax.

Many children in the foster care system are often in the midst of a family challenge.

But we also know that the very founders that wrote those documents worked tirelessly until slavery was no more in the United States. I think it is high time that we recognize the contribution of our forbearers who worked tirelessly, men like John Quincy Adams, who would not rest until slavery was extinguished in the country.
Michele Bachmann
John Quincy Adams most certainly was a part of the Revolutionary War era. He was a young boy, but he was actively involved.

If you're involved in the gay and lesbian lifestyle, it's bondage. It is personal bondage, personal despair and personal enslavement.
Michele Bachmann
I was born into a Christian family and brought up in a Lutheran church. My faith has been the center point of my life, really, since I was a child, but at 16 years of age, I fully surrendered my life over to Christ. At that point, as a teenager, I began to grasp the concept of Christ's true love and forgiveness.
