It is false to suggest that Thomas Jefferson or any other Founding Father believed in a legal barrier to God in the public square.
Newt Gingrich
If the Soviet empire still existed, I'd be terrified. The fact is, we can afford a fairly ignorant presidency now.
Newt Gingrich
Somebody ought to have the courage to tell the truth. These people are terrorists.
Newt Gingrich
I believe we will elect a new President in 2012.
Newt Gingrich
Opposing taxes is a key conservative value.
Newt Gingrich
I think Donald Trump thinks of Putin as being a strong person, and I think he thinks of himself as being a very strong person. But I don't think in any way that he thinks of the Putin government as a desirable model.
Newt Gingrich
Any suggestion that the most open and diverse society on the planet is likely to in any way resemble Russia requires a suspension of common sense that is pretty hard to deal with.
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
The Republican brand has been so badly damaged that if Republicans try to run an anti-Obama, anti-Rev. Wright or, if Sen. Clinton wins, anti-Clinton campaign, they are simply going to fail. This model has already been tested with disastrous results.

Lions cannot afford to hunt mice because they literally will starve to death, even if they catch them. Lions and all large carnivores have to hunt game large enough to justify the investment, so they have to hunt antelope and zebra. Why is this important? Because most senior executives are really big on chipmunks.
Newt Gingrich
Governor Romney may be running for CEO, I'm running for President
Newt Gingrich
I'm a little tired of people who have very big moral positions and very small power in reality.
Newt Gingrich
I do not believe that the people of the United States are going to take people who have been here a quarter century, who have children and grandchildren, who are members of the community, who may have done something 25 years ago, separate them from their families, and expel them.
Newt Gingrich
We have to rethink, how do we get a complete 360-degree understanding of the patient?
Newt Gingrich
The sacrament of marriage is based on a man and woman.
Newt Gingrich
An energy tax punishes senior citizens, it punishes rural Americans, if you use electricity it punishes you. This bill will increase your cost of living and may kill your job.
Newt Gingrich
If we'd had government on [today's] scale in the 1840s, the stagecoaches would have hired lobbyists to get a bill passed that railroads could not travel faster than a horse because it would be an unfair competitive advantage.
Newt Gingrich
It is tragic what we do in the poorest neighborhoods, entrapping children in child laws which are truly stupid... These schools should get rid of unionized janitors, have one master janitor, pay local students to take care of the school.
Newt Gingrich
You serve the country, and you help the President. If the President wants you to leave, you know, you are two corridors down.
Newt Gingrich
We're at the crossroads. Down one road is a European centralized bureaucratic socialist welfare system in which politicians and bureaucrats define the future. Down the other road is a proud, solid, reaffirmation of American exceptionalism.
