Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.

If we lose freedom here, there is no place to escape to. This is the last stand on earth.

Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves.

If we ever forget that we're one nation under God, then we will be one nation gone under.

There is no limit to the amount of good you can do if you don't care who gets the credit.

I know in my heart that man is good, that what is right will always eventually triumph, and there is purpose and worth to each and every life.

Status quo, you know, is Latin for 'the mess we're in'.

Yes, our country has its shortcomings, but there's no moral equivalency between democracy and totalitarianism…There's no moral equivalency between propaganda and the truth.

If you're explaining, you're losing.
