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.

More quotes by Newt Gingrich
Donald Trump has to be Donald Trump. And the country will organize itself around who he is.
Newt Gingrich
Public Broadcasting is a sandbox for the rich. The NEA and the HEH are simply enclaves of the left using your money to propagandize your children against your values.
Newt Gingrich
Support charters insist on change for failing schools.
Newt Gingrich
Somebody ought to have the courage to tell the truth. These people are terrorists.
Newt Gingrich
Baby Boomers becoming Republicans while Dems become outdated.
Newt Gingrich
I read Men Who Hate Women and the Women Who Love Them and I found frightening pieces that related to…my own life.
Newt Gingrich
All unemployment compensation should be tied to a job training requirement. Now the fact is, 99 weeks is an associate degree.
Newt Gingrich
In the middle of a recession no tax increase is justified because it kills jobs, and any tax increase is a job-killing measure and should be defeated.
Newt Gingrich
I have six times as many Twitter followers as all the other candidates combined, but it didn't count because if it counted I'd still be a candidate since I can't be a candidate that can't count.
Newt Gingrich
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
Oh, sure... I was trying to make to make a point that we shouldn't be afraid to debate the left, even on the environment. That was obviously misconstrued, and that's one of the things I probably won't do again
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
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.
Newt Gingrich
Donald Trump has to understand and his family has to understand that there is a public interest which transcends them.
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
I will continue to find ways to help poor people find a job, get a job, and learn someday to own the job.
Newt Gingrich
To suggest that it's OK to assassinate a president, I think is a felony. And I think that it should be.
Newt Gingrich
Hillary Clinton has built a huge machine. Donald Trump's asset is people on Facebook and twitter. He can communicate with them eight or 10 times a day with no money. This is a different world.
Newt Gingrich
I think If I were to look for the most foolish Clinton supporter and ask you to give them equal time nationally, I could find you some pretty nutty people who are for Hillary Clinton.
Newt Gingrich
The national media are doing everything they can to suppress bad news about Hillary Clinton and everything they can to maximize bad news about Donald Trump.
