More quotes by Tim Kaine
In life, success begets success.
Tim Kaine
I accept the teachings of my own church in terms of how I live, how my wife and I live, what we teach our kids. But I don't think the teachings of my church are such that I should legislate that for everybody else.
Tim Kaine
Race to race, the Republicans are putting up candidates that are quite far out of the mainstream in terms of should we have passed the Civil Rights Act or does Social Security need to exist.
Tim Kaine
Donald Trump's idea that more nations should get nuclear weapons. Saudi Arabia, Japan, South Korea.
Tim Kaine
You build the bonds through the community and police force, build bonds of understanding, and then when people feel comfortable in their communities, that gap between the police and the communities they serve narrows. And when that gap narrows, it's safer for the communities and it's safer for the police.
Tim Kaine
You spend your time blaming the other for what's not getting done and you actually do a couple things, and then you switch to, Hey, let's instead compete about who gets the credit for what we just did. And that's a lot more fun.
Tim Kaine
I think you should live your moral values, but the last thing, the very last thing, the government should do is have laws that would punish women who make reproductive choices.
Tim Kaine
I'm very, very serious about my Catholicism and Hillary Clinton views that as a real asset. And we've talked about our faith lives, as she asked me to be on the ticket with her.
Tim Kaine
As much as we may have to battle against a Trump presidency, there's still good relationships within the Senate, bipartisan relationships where we can work together.
Tim Kaine
If somebody comes before me and I think that they will do a good job in fulfilling the mission - even if I might not have nominated them - if I think they're gonna do a good job, I vote for 'em.
Tim Kaine
You should live fully and with enthusiasm, the commands of your faith, but it is not the role of the public servant to mandate that for everybody else.
Tim Kaine
The national security issues are very important for two reasons. First, because everybody knows that we want to be safe. But, secondly, people see these issues as probably the clearest window into somebody's temperament, their judgment, whether they're steady or volatile.
Tim Kaine
I was the legal counsel in the effort to amend the Virginia Constitution to give Virginians the right to hunt and fish constitutionally, and we are one of the few states in the country to protect that right.
Tim Kaine
Here's what people should look at as they look at a public servant. Do they have a passion in their life that showed up before they were in public life? And have they held onto that passion throughout their life, regardless of whether they were in office or not, succeeding or failing?
Tim Kaine
When I was running for governor, I was attacked pretty strongly because of my position on the death penalty. But I looked the voters of Virginia in the eye and said, look, this is my religion. I'm not going to change my religious practice to get one vote, but I know how to take an oath and uphold the law. And if you elect me, I will uphold the law.
Tim Kaine
The terrorist threat to American troops has decreased in some ways because there's not 175,000 in a dangerous part of the world. There's only 15,000.
Tim Kaine
Donald Trump started this campaign in 2014 he said if I run for president I'll absolutely release my taxes.
Tim Kaine
No couples in Virginia can adopt other than a married couple - that's the right policy.
Tim Kaine
Vladimir Putin is a dictator. He's not a leader. Anybody who thinks otherwise doesn't know Russian history and they don't know Vladimir Putin. Hillary Clinton knows exactly who this guy is. John McCain said, I look in his eyes and I see KGB. And Hillary kind of has that same feeling.
Tim Kaine
Hillary Clinton is the secretary of state who knows how to build alliances. She built the sanctions regime around the world that stopped the Iranian nuclear weapons program. And that's what an intelligence surge means, better skill and capacity, but also about our alliances.
