More quotes by Ralph Nader
Things have gotten so bad in this country, you look back at Richard Nixon with nostalgia.
Ralph Nader
Secrecy destroys accountability.
Ralph Nader
Young wives are the leading asset of corporate power. They want the suburbs, a house, a settled life, and respectability. They want society to see that they have exchanged themselves for something of value.
Ralph Nader
She was the light of our lives, our anchor, compass and vision.
Ralph Nader
I suppose the Green Party doesn't care for the anti-civil libertarian provisions of the notoriously named Patriot Act, invading privacy, and being able to search your home, and not tell you for 72 hours.
Ralph Nader
I don't like too much by-standing, on-looking, and spectator-behavior in people's lives.
Ralph Nader
Ours is a system of corporate socialism, where companies capitalize their profits and socialize their losses…in effect, they tax you for their accidents, bungling, boondoggles, and mismanagement, just like a government. We should be able to deselect them.
Ralph Nader
What we have now is democracy without citizens. No one is on the public's side. All the buyers are on the corporations' side. And the bureaucrats in the Administration don't think the government belongs to the people.
Ralph Nader
The use of solar energy has not been opened up because the oil industry does not own the sun.
Ralph Nader
The networks are not some chicken-coop manufacturing lobby whose calls nobody returns.
Ralph Nader

Ralph Nader
The food industry, its trade associations, and research foundations, is well financed and highly organized to pressure the FDA.
Ralph Nader
We have two parties who are basically hijacking our country for their corporate paymasters. And if we focus on 535 members of Congress, that's not all that many, we're going to see a fast turnaround. So focus all your concerns, all the information, the kind of agenda the Green Party has. Turn it right on your Senators and Representatives.
Ralph Nader
If they don't close these [nuclear] reactors down, we'll have civil war in five years.
Ralph Nader
[As a child] I was very interested in books that detailed injustice and how people who are underdogs were mistreated throughout history.
Ralph Nader
George W. Bush is very vulnerable but not if you campaign the way the major candidates - except for Dean and Kucinich - are campaigning.
Ralph Nader
If God hadn't meant for us to eat sugar, he wouldn't have invented dentists.
Ralph Nader
Nothing can stop the power of an informed citizenry when it is empowered, organized, and motivated.
Ralph Nader
The flow from knowledge to action draws upon the complete person with his or her catalyst and synergistic potential.
Ralph Nader
When I go up there, I see coal lobbyists, oil lobbyists, natural gas lobbyists, nuclear power lobbyists, somehow they think that's where the action is in Congress.
