More quotes by William Weld
Government is never so noble as when it is addressing wrongs.
William Weld
One of the functions of government is to act as a safeguard not just of property but of our liberties.
William Weld
Natural resources are so vast that no single individual or business is going to protect them they don't have an incentive to.
William Weld
I think the dignity of Congress and the dignity of the country demands something more than merely censure here.
William Weld
Micro managing anything is not a great role for government.
William Weld
[Donald Trump] just would not be in his element and I think he would wobble off course and I think the country just can't have that.
William Weld
There's no Walter Cronkite to give you the final word each evening.
William Weld
I've been at some pains to say that I fear for the country if Mr.[DonALD] Trump should be elected. I think it's a candidacy without any parallel that I can recall.
William Weld
I think it would be a threat [Donald's Trump presidency] to the conduct of our foreign policy and our position in the world at large.
William Weld
I see a big difference between the Republican candidate and the Democratic candidate.
William Weld
[Donald Trump] doesn't deal well with criticism and blame and I don't think he could competently manage the office of the presidency given the criticism and challenge that you face every single day as the President of the United States.
William Weld
Gary Johnson and I have a good platform of having been fiscally conservative and we`re socially inclusive. And that`s different from both the other parties. The voters have a right to see that choice to be fiscally conservative and socially liberal. That doesn`t describe either of the other parties.
William Weld
It's healthy for government to be a kind of moral catalyst, using the bully pulpit of high office.
William Weld
The unemployment rate is still twice as high for blacks as for whites.
William Weld
The best preparation for work is not thinking about work, talking about work, or studying for work: it is work.
William Weld
Managing people's sex lives is something that I don't think is a good role for government.
William Weld
Government can contribute to a shared sense of purpose on the part of the citizenry that's its highest and best application.
William Weld
I mean that psychologically. I think [Donald Trump] showed in the debates when he encounters criticism or challenge he behaves the way a bully would. He just doesn't take it well.
William Weld
I think government has a major role to play in helping us with the pursuit of happiness.
William Weld
I would just say 2016 is a year when voters have to think for themselves and shouldn`t necessarily take it from the Rs and the Ds in Washington. But you have to vote for me because otherwise the other guy might win. That`s not really very substantive.
William Weld
