We're getting to the point where we're impinging on democratic institutions in this country and I think, you know, it takes a certain - not a suspension of disbelief - but willingness to go along with other people to get the ship of state going forward. I'm not sure that happens in a [Donald] Trump presidency, frankly.

I talk with Gary [Johnson] every other day, we're on different coasts usually but we keep in touch and - yeah, no I do not agree with that release.
William Weld

I have come to realize that Jesse Helms stands for everything in politics that is anathema to me.
William Weld

I think Gary Johnson would be capable of being a good chief executive and yes a commander in chief - Aleppo to the contrary, notwithstanding.

[Donald Trump] would be chaos for the country, I think.

In the nineteenth century, slavery was the greatest wrong, and government never stood so tall as when it was redressing that wrong.
William Weld

I think in the real world that's probably correct. That would give federal matching funds. It would mean no more ballot access woes.

It's healthy for government to be a kind of moral catalyst, using the bully pulpit of high office.
William Weld

One of the functions of government is to act as a safeguard not just of property but of our liberties.

We thought for the longest time we might have a chance to run the table because we're such nice guys and centrist party, etcetera, but not getting into the debates really sort of foreclosed that option.
