A nation that forgets its past has no future.
If you're not a liberal at twenty, you have no heart. If you're not a conservative at forty, you have no brain.
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy. Its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
There is nothing government can give you that it hasn't taken from you in the first place.
The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.
A good speech should be like a woman's skirt: long enough to cover the subject and short enough to create interest.
The main vice of capitalism is the uneven distribution of prosperity. The main vice of socialism is the even distribution of misery.
However beautiful the strategy, you should occasionally look at the results.
You don't make the poor richer by making the rich poorer.
A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.
We contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.
Life is fraught with opportunities to keep your mouth shut.
