More quotes by Ron Paul
Secession is a deeply American principle. This country was born through secession.
Ron Paul
Opinion polls consistently show that only about 5 percent of blacks have sensible political opinions, i.e. support the free market, individual liberty, and the end of welfare and affirmative action.
Ron Paul
The Founding Fathers realized that the power to tax is the power to destroy, which is why they did not give the Federal government the power to impose an income tax. Needless to say, the Founders would be horrified to know that Americans today give more than a third of their income to the Federal government.
Ron Paul
Another term for preventive war is aggressive war - starting wars because someday somebody might do something to us. That is not part of the American tradition.
Ron Paul
Just think of what Woodrow Wilson stood for: he stood for world government. He wanted an early United Nations, League of Nations. But it was the conservatives, Republicans, that stood up against him.
Ron Paul
It’s amazing that people don’t understand that the more the market is involved and the smaller the government, the lower the price, the better the distribution, and the higher the quality.
Ron Paul
Setting a good example is a far better way to spread ideals than through force of arms.
Ron Paul

Ron Paul
The federal government cannot maintain a budget surplus any more than an alcoholic can leave a fresh bottle of whiskey untouched in the cupboard.
Ron Paul
This much is true: you have been lied to.
Ron Paul
The Fourth Amendment is clear we should be secure in our persons, houses, papers, and effects, and all warrants must have probable cause. Today the government operates largely in secret, while seeking to know everything about our private lives - without probable cause and without a warrant.
Ron Paul
In a free society, we are supposed to know the truth. In a society where truth becomes treason, we are in big trouble.
Ron Paul
I'm convinced that you never have to give up liberties to be safe. I think you're less safe when you give up your liberties.
Ron Paul
I have a personal belief that you never have to give up liberty for security. You can still provide security without sacrificing our Bill of Rights.
Ron Paul
They've been taught by too many that this war was necessary when it isn't.
Ron Paul
If you give up on your principles I don’t think that’s being pragmatic... Doing the wrong thing, even partially, isn’t being practical...if you have the right ideas and are forceful enough...I think you can get the support you need.
Ron Paul
Scientifically, there's no debate over whether the fetus is alive and human.
Ron Paul
There's a a right to privacy for all individuals and all who have legal rights - and that includes the unborn. As an obstetrician, if I cause any harm to a fetus, I will be sued. If someone kills or harms a fetus they're liable in a court of law.
Ron Paul
Republican control of the Senate = expanded neocon wars in Syria and Iraq. Boots on the ground are coming!
Ron Paul
Under the United States Constitution, the federal government has no authority to hold states accountable for their education performance...In the free society envisioned by the founders, schools are held accountable to parents, not federal bureaucrats.
Ron Paul
