More quotes by Ron Paul
How did we win the election in the year 2000? We talked about a humble foreign policy: No nation-building don't police the world. That's conservative, it's Republican, it's pro-American - it follows the founding fathers. And, besides, it follows the Constitution.
Ron Paul
It would be virtually impossible to finance wars without taxing the people, and the welfare system would be limited because there wouldn't be enough money in the bank to sustain it as it is, and that would help prices stay under control.
Ron Paul
It is a dangerous notion that we need a government to protect us from ourselves.
Ron Paul
Let the revolution begin.
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
I have this terrible habit of wanting to try to be consistent and develop a philosophy that's coherent.
Ron Paul
Believe me, the next step is a currency crisis because there will be a rejection of the dollar, the rejection of the dollar is a big, big event, and then your personal liberties are going to be severely threatened.
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
To me, to be a conservative means to conserve the good parts of America and to conserve our Constitution.
Ron Paul
You don't quit because you happen to be behind. You want to see how you do. And who knows? Maybe somebody will stumble.
Ron Paul
The problem is that democracy is not freedom. Democracy is simply majoritarianism, which is inherently incompatible with real freedom. Our founding fathers clearly understood this.
Ron Paul
What can you do? More and more Americans are carrying a gun in the car. An ex-cop I know advises that if you have to use a gun on a youth, you should leave the scene immediately, disposing of the wiped off gun as soon as possible. Such a gun cannot, of course, be registered to you, but one bought privately (through the classifieds, for example.)
Ron Paul
It is incumbent on a great nation to remain confident, if it wishes to remain free. We need not be ignorant to real threats to our safety, against which we must remain vigilant. We need only to banish to the ash heap of history the notion that we ought to be ruled by our fears and those who use them to enhance their own power.
Ron Paul
I would absolutely never use the federal government to enforce the law of using marijuana
Ron Paul
It's not like I'm just trying to win and get elected. I'm trying to change the course of history.
Ron Paul
The constant refrain that bringing our troops home would demonstrate a lack of support for them must be one of the most amazing distortions ever foisted on the American public.
Ron Paul
I believe only a free society can ever be truly secure. The goal should be to make terrorists feel threatened, not the American people.
Ron Paul
I would like to restore your right to drink raw milk anytime you like.
Ron Paul
You can't have a healthy economy without sound money, which is why we're on the verge of very serious economic problem.
Ron Paul
The Cap and Trade Bill HR 2454 was voted on last Friday. Proponents claim this bill will help the environment, but what it really does is put another nail in the economy’s coffin.
