I think the policy makers like the idea of being the boss. I mean people who like to boss other people around like to go into politics so they can become the boss.
Ron Paul
Image
I have never been one who is comfortable talking about my faith in the political arena. In fact, the pandering that typically occurs in the election season I find to be distasteful. But for those who have asked, I freely confess that Jesus Christ is my personal Savior, and that I seek His guidance in all that I do.

Nothing good can come from the Federal Reserve. It is the biggest taxer of them all. Diluting the value of the dollar by increasing its supply is a vicious, sinister tax on the poor and middle class.

Ron Paul
Image
Justifying conscription to promote the cause of liberty is one of the most bizarre notions ever conceived by man! Forced servitude, with the risk of death and serious injury as a price to live free, makes no sense.
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
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.

Suicide terrorism stops when we stop intervening abroad.
Ron Paul
Image
In time it will become clear to everyone that support for the policies of pre-emptive war and interventionist nation-building will have much greater significance than the removal of Saddam Hussein itself.
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
Image
Scientifically, there's no debate over whether the fetus is alive and human.
Ron Paul
Image
I have this terrible habit of wanting to try to be consistent and develop a philosophy that's coherent.
Ron Paul
Image
After years spent in Washington, I have become more aware than ever of the government's ineptness and the likelihood of its making mistakes. I no longer trust the U.S. government to invoke and carry out a death sentence under any conditions.
Ron Paul
Image
If you sacrifice liberty for security, you will lose both.

Capitalism should not be condemned, since we haven't had capitalism.

I don't know how to run your life. I don't know how to run your life. I don't have the authority to run your life. And the Constitution doesn't permit me to run your life.
