More quotes by Newt Gingrich
As the largest market on the planet, I'm not particularly worried about countries that want to start a trade war with America. I think they would end up losing.
Newt Gingrich
If a bunch of Republicans are too stiff- necked, too proud, or in some cases too committed to the old order, after the election, I think they're going to be very sobered by their position.
Newt Gingrich
How can you have the mess we have in New Orleans, and not have had deep investigations of the federal government, the state government, the city government, and the failure of citizenship in the Ninth Ward, where 22,000 people were so uneducated and so unprepared, they literally couldn't get out of the way of a hurricane.

This is a serious problem that will lead to a serious debate about the first amendment.

I think Donald Trump is very, very cautious about nuclear weapons, and he's seriously concerned.

Criminals thrive on society's understanding.
Newt Gingrich
Change is healthy and useful. It has to be fought for most of the time. It's not inevitable. It takes real leadership and real effort. But I think it's really important not to take yourself too seriously. Dwight Eisenhower used to have a rule that you should always take your job seriously but not yourself.
Newt Gingrich
It may just be because I get homesick, but I have concluded Washington's cherry blossoms are just plain overrated.
Newt Gingrich
My strength and my weakness is that I see normally impersonal events vividly and personally.
Newt Gingrich
Donald Trump is going to win. Donald Trump is going to win because in the end, the country is not going to reward big banks and big unions and big bureaucracies and big donors and big corruption by voting for a big liar.
Newt Gingrich
I'm against ObamaCare, which is imposing radical change, and I would be against a conservative imposing radical change.... I don't think right-wing social engineering is any more desirable than left-wing social engineering... I don't think imposing radical change from the right or the left is a very good way for a free society to operate.
Newt Gingrich
Without Jimmy Carter we might not have gotten Ronald Reagan, without Ronald Reagan there would probably still be a Soviet Union.
Newt Gingrich
Now, we don't get rid of it in round one because we don't think that that's politically smart, and we don't think that's the right way to go through a transition. But we believe it's going to wither on the vine because we think people are voluntarily going to leave it - voluntarily.
Newt Gingrich
We don't we agree that litigation reform to lower the cost of healthcare would be a good starting point?
Newt Gingrich
Polls are biased left GOP wins on the issues.

Would you pick me? I am so much my own agent, it would be - its inconceivable.
