More quotes by Paul Ryan
With all their attack ads, the President is just throwing away money...and he's pretty experienced at that.
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
We think that`s necessary just as a foundation for economic growth. It`s not the jobs in and of themselves, which you do make by building bridges and things like this, but it`s the economic growth that comes from having a modern infrastructure that is in dire need of repair.
Paul Ryan
The reason I got involved in public service, by and large, if I had to credit one thinker, one person, it would be Ayn Rand. The fight we are in here, make no mistake about it, is a fight of individualism versus collectivism.
Paul Ryan
The secret to understanding me is, I'm not trying to be anybody other than who I actually am. People want candid, refreshing leadership. And I've always tried to go with solutions. You know, I've always tried to say, here's how we get our economy growing, here's why we get our debt under control. That's what Mitt Romney is offering.
Paul Ryan
Here's the problem if you keep raising tax rates: You slow down economic growth.
Paul Ryan
I'm a person that can get along with people. I like people who believe passionately in things even if they're not the things I agree with.
Paul Ryan
Let's move forward and fix America's problems.
Paul Ryan
I think there's always a role for Congress under every instance in every administration to conduct oversight of the executive branch.
Paul Ryan
Donald Trump turned politics on its head.
Paul Ryan
I believe in making government as Ronald Reagan said. Not the distributor of gifts and privilege but once again the protector of our liberties.
Paul Ryan
That's what's going to matter at the end of the day. Did we improve people's lives? Did we solve the problems that the American people need solved? Are we addressing the concerns of people who are tired of being tired?
Paul Ryan
You're going to hear a lot from President Obama and yes, from Joe Biden, you're hearing a little bit about Medicare these days. What they will not tell you is they turned Medicare into a piggybank to fund 'Obamacare.' They took $716 billion dollars to pay for the 'Obamacare' program.
Paul Ryan
Progressives deliver everything except progress.
Paul Ryan
I do politics in order to do policy.
Paul Ryan
I spent more time talking with this president [Donald Trump] in the last few days, I think, than I probably talked with this last president [Barack Obama] in the last six months. So this is something that he is working very closely hand in glove with congress.
Paul Ryan
None of us have to settle for the best this administration offers - a dull, adventureless journey from one entitlement to the next, a government-planned life, a country where everything is free but us.
Paul Ryan
I believe in a free society, where aspiration and effort can make the difference in every life. Where your starting point is not your destiny and where your first chance is not your only chance.
Paul Ryan
That's what the Romney plan is all about, how to get jobs created, how to get this debt and deficit under control, how to revive small businesses so we can create jobs, and how to bring growth and opportunity to society instead of this class warfare, instead of speaking to people like they're stuck in some class or station in life.
Paul Ryan
Our debt is out of control. What was a fiscal challenge is now a fiscal crisis. We cannot deny it instead we must, as Americans, confront it responsibly. And that is exactly what Republicans pledge to do.
Paul Ryan
