The number one responsibility for each of us is to change ourselves with hope that others will follow.
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

When it comes to the environment and global warming from emissions, it has to be dealt with in one of two ways - preemptive regulations, which I don't agree with, or with private property principles. Nobody has the right to pollute their neighbors' air or water or land.
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.

There is nothing wrong with describing Conservatism as protecting the Constitution, protecting all things that limit government. Government is the enemy of liberty. Government should be very restrained.
Ron Paul
Image
We have depended on government for so much for so long that we as people have become less vigilant of our liberties. As long as the government provides largesse for the majority, the special interest lobbyists will succeed in continuing the redistribution of welfare programs that occupies most of Congress's legislative time.

I am convinced that there are more threats to American liberty within the 10-mile radius of my office on Capitol Hill than there are on the rest of the globe.
Ron Paul
Image
We need to take away the government's money power. The banking industry needs its welfare check ended. The dollar's soundness depends on its being untied from the machine that can make an infinite number of copies of dollars and reduce their value to zero.
Ron Paul
Image
There is only one kind of freedom and that's individual liberty. Our lives come from our creator and our liberty comes from our creator. It has nothing to do with government granting it.
Ron Paul
Image
I want to just obey the Constitution.The Constitution says only gold and silver can be legal tender.
Ron Paul

Get rid of IRS get rid of income tax get rid of spending.
Ron Paul

Once created, federal programs are nearly impossible to eliminate.
Ron Paul
Image
Quantitative easing is just the latest chapter in the Federal Reserve’s hundred-year history of failure. (...) The American people have suffered long enough under a monetary policy controlled by an unaccountable, secretive central bank. It is time to finally audit - and then end - the Fed.
Ron Paul
Image
Believe me, the intellectual revolution is going on, and that has to come first before you see the political changes. That's where I'm very optimistic.
Ron Paul
Image
I have come to one firm conviction after these many years of trying to figure out the plain truth of things. The best chance for achieving peace and prosperity, for the maximum number of people worldwide, is to pursue the cause of liberty. If you find this to be a worthwhile message, spread it throughout the land.
Ron Paul
Image
I have my shortcomings. But the message, it has no shortcomings. The message of Liberty is what America is all about.
Ron Paul
Image
Ideas are the only things that count, and politicians are, for the most part, pretty much irrelevant.
Ron Paul
Image
We'd love it if we could all just come home and not worry about the rest of the world. But the problem is, they attacked us on 9/11. We were here they attacked us.
Ron Paul

Have you noticed the debt is exploding? And it's not all because of Medicare.
