More quotes by Ted Cruz
A lot of my colleagues actually yell and curse at each other. I don't do that.
Ted Cruz
I will fight to defend liberty.
Ted Cruz
I think if you're at home and you don't want Donald Trump to be the Republican nominee, then the only candidate who can beat Donald is our campaign. And so I would encourage, even if you like another candidate, stand with us if you don't want Donald to be the nominee.

He has attempted to muddy the waters, but I think anyone that watched the battle that we had - you know, there was a time for choosing, as Ronald Reagan put it, where there was a battle over amnesty. And some chose, like Sen. Marco Rubio, to stand with Barack Obama and Chuck Schumer and support a massive amnesty plan.
Ted Cruz
The principles Donald Trump is focused on are exactly the right principles: more choice, more competition, lower costs, lower premiums.
Ted Cruz
One of the things we've seen here is how easy it is for Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton to get distracted from dealing with radical Islamic terrorism. They won't even call it by its name.
Ted Cruz
Donald Trump has opened [ politically correct enforcement] up wide. He`s made a very bold statement and he`s backed it back just a little bit when he said it is temporary.
Ted Cruz
Young people want someone to tell them the truth. They want to be inspired.
Ted Cruz
