Favorite Quote:

"It is hard to imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no price for being wrong."
--Thomas Sowell

"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."
-- Ronald Reagan

"Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it."
--Ronald Reagan

"God loves each of us as if there were only one of us."
--Saint Augustine

"People who have time on their hands will inevitably waste the time of people who have work to do."
--Thomas Sowell

"Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence."
--John Adams

"Do not separate text from historical background. If you do, you will have perverted and subverted the Constitution, which can only end in a distorted, bastardized form of illegitimate government."
--James Madison

"Socialism in general has a record of failure so blatant that only an intellectual could ignore or evade it."
--Thomas Sowell

"The best we can hope for concerning the people at large is that they be properly armed."
-- Alexander Hamilton

"One of the ordinary modes, by which tyrants accomplish their purposes without resistance, is, by disarming the people, and making it an offense to keep arms."
--Joseph Story

"A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government."
--Thomas Jefferson

"Everyone wants to live at the expense of the state. They forget that the state wants to live at the expense of everyone."
--Frederic Bastiat

"It will be of little avail to the people that the laws are made by men of their own choice if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood."
--James Madison

"Life, liberty, and property do not exist because men have made laws. On the contrary, it was the fact that life, liberty, and property existed beforehand that caused men to make laws in the first place."
--Frederic Bastiat

"Charity is no substitute for justice withheld."
--Saint Augustine

"The personal right to acquire property, which is a natural right, gives to property, when acquired, a right to protection, as a social right."
--James Madison

"Men do not make laws. They do but discover them. Laws must be justified by something more than the will of the majority. They must rest on the eternal foundation of righteousness."
--Calvin Coolidge

"The men and women of this country who toil are the ones who bear the cost of the Government. Every dollar that we carelessly waste means that their life will be so much the more meager. Every dollar that we prudently save means that their life will be so much the more abundant."
--Calvin Coolidge
