So here's the question: Without a change in leadership, why would the next four years be any different from the last four years?
Paul Ryan
It all started off with stirring speeches, Greek columns, the thrill of something new. Now all that's left is a presidency adrift, surviving on slogans that already seem tired, grasping at a moment that has already passed, like a ship trying to sail on yesterday's wind.
Paul Ryan
Hope and change? We're not doing that anymore. They're doing attack and blame. And so, I just think people are going to see through this. They want real leadership. They want us to get this country on the right track.
Paul Ryan
I favored the idea of Trans-Pacific Partnership, but I did not support the administration - the [Barack] Obama administration TPP. There are three or four things they did in that, that I though were terrible agreements that were not worth supporting.
Paul Ryan
We do not have a functioning market in the true sense of the word in health care. That's a layer of transparency that's sorely needed in America.
Paul Ryan
Donald Trump is basically giving voice to a lot of people who have felt that they were voiceless.
Paul Ryan
We can't keep measuring success by how much money are we throw at programs. We have to measure success as, 'Is it working?'
Paul Ryan
There are various different kinds of conservatives and different kinds of Republicans. We all come from different corners of our party. The key here is not only to unify and merge these approaches, but to also invite everyone else in America to get us focused on our solutions.
Paul Ryan
We need leadership. We don't need a doubling down on the failed politics of the past.
Paul Ryan

Paul Ryan
I think it's important to not have some sort of one-size-fits-all program in Washington, which has downsides, like killing entry-level jobs. But pulling people into the workforce...
Paul Ryan
Only by taking responsibility for oneself, to the greatest extent possible, can one ever be free, and only a free person can make responsible choices - between right and wrong, saving and spending, giving or taking.
Paul Ryan
I think it is inflationary. I think it actually is counterproductive in many ways. You end up costing jobs from people who are at the bottom rung of the economic ladder.
Paul Ryan
In Pennsylvania, 38 percent of Pennsylvania seniors chose to get their Medicare from a plan called Medicare Advantage. It's their choice. Forty-seven percent of them are going to lose it under 'Obamacare' according to Medicare by 2017.
Paul Ryan
Progressives deliver everything except progress.
Paul Ryan
America is more than just a place...it's an idea. It's the only country founded on an idea. Our rights come from nature and God, not government. We promise equal opportunity, not equal outcomes.
Paul Ryan
We must solve the problem in health care by curbing out-of-control costs that erode paychecks for working families and push quality coverage out of reach for millions of Americans.
Paul Ryan
To borrow a phrase from my friend Erskine Bowles on the Fiscal Commission, we are the healthiest looking horse in the glue factory. That means America is still a step ahead of the European nations who are confronting a debt crisis, of Japan that's in its second lost decade.
Paul Ryan
Every conversation I have almost always revolves around, you know, personnel and policy focused on producing results.
Paul Ryan
We have a massive heroin opioid epidemic problem in America, part of that is because of drugs coming from the cartels from the south.
