More quotes by Mitt Romney
I'm not concerned about the very poor. We have a safety net there. If it needs a repair, I'll fix it.
Mitt Romney
But in the business I had, we invested in over 100 different businesses and net-net, taking out the ones where we lost jobs and those that we added, those businesses have now added over 100,000 jobs.
Mitt Romney
People from both political parties have long recognized that welfare without work creates negative incentives that lead to permanent poverty. It robs people of self-esteem.
Mitt Romney
I believe that FEMA plays a key role in working with states and localities to prepare for and respond to natural disasters. As president, I will ensure FEMA has the funding it needs to fulfill its mission.
Mitt Romney
We will achieve North America energy independence by 2020, by taking full advantage of our oil, our gas, our coal, our renewables and our nuclear power. Abundant, inexpensive, domestic energy will not only create energy jobs, it will bring back manufacturing jobs.
Mitt Romney
Isn't it fitting that so many of those who have contempt for the private sector will soon find themselves back in it?
Mitt Romney
Freedom. Freedom of religion. Freedom to speak their mind. Freedom to build a life. And yes, freedom to build a business. With their own hands. This is the essence of the American experience.
Mitt Romney
No person I have ever met, not even the most righteous or pure of heart, has gone without those times when faith recedes in the busy-ness of life.
Mitt Romney
This is a nation of immigrants. We welcome people coming to this country as immigrants. My dad was born in Mexico of American parents Ann's dad was born in Wales and is a first-generation American. We welcome legal immigrants into this country.
Mitt Romney
I'm outraged by the attacks on American diplomatic missions in Libya and Egypt and by the death of an American consulate worker in Benghazi. It's disgraceful that the Obama Administration's first response was not to condemn attacks on our diplomatic missions, but to sympathize with those who waged the attacks.
Mitt Romney
I want to get America's private sector growing and I know how to do it.
Mitt Romney
The president (George W. Bush) says let's have private accounts, and take the surplus money that's being gathered now in Social Security and put it into private accounts. That works.
Mitt Romney
I'm not running, I'm not planning on running, and I've got nothing new on that story.
Mitt Romney
We have always been a nation that has celebrated success of various kinds. The kid that gets the honor roll, the individual worker that gets a promotion, the person that gets a better job. And in fact, the person that builds a business. And by the way, if you have a business and you started it, you did build it. And you deserve credit for that.
Mitt Romney
I can't possibly predict precisely what the unemployment rate will be at the end of one year. I can tell you that over a period of four years, by virtue of the policies that we'd put in place, we'd get the unemployment rate down to 6%, and perhaps a little lower.
Mitt Romney
I'm not concerned about the very poor, we have a safety net there, if we need to repair, I'll fix it. I'm not concerned about the very rich, they're doing just fine. I'm concerned about the very heart of America, the 90-95 percent of Americans who are struggling, and I'll continue to take that message across the country.
Mitt Romney
We should have communicated to Iran that we are prepared, that we are considering military options. They're not just on the table, they are in our hands.
Mitt Romney
I don't doubt for a second that Neil Armstrong's spirit is still with us: that unique blend of optimism, humility and the utter confidence that when the world needs someone to do the really big stuff, you need an American.
Mitt Romney
We reserve our deepest respect and admiration for those who volunteer for service and give their lives to help keep our nation secure.
Mitt Romney
It was the right decision to go into Iraq. I supported it at the time I support it now.
