“You can’t have it both ways. You can’t tell me that you’re taxed enough already, and that you want constitutional government and then in the next breath say, ‘Bring me home some bacon.’ The pig has been picked clean.”

There is nothing conservative about bailing out Wall Street. Likewise, there is nothing progressive about billion dollar loans to millionaires to build solar panels.

I will not vote to send my sons, or your sons, daughters, brothers, sisters or friends to fight for a stalemate.

Inherent to socialism is the absence of choice. If I want to choose my own pretzels or books or iphones, they prevent me – they fine me, or imprison me. And those systems, not infrequently have historically, have developed into systems where there are programs.

It’s curious that only in Washington can you spend $2 billion and claim that you’re saving money.

America’s not the world’s policeman. Terrible things happen across the globe and it is beyond our means to right every wrong. But when, with modest effort and risk, we can stop children from being gassed to death and thereby make our own children safer over the long run, I believe we should act.

The Constitution was not written to restrain the citizen’s behavior, it was written to restrain the government’s behavior.

Let me be clear: I support the Civil Rights Act because I overwhelmingly agree with the intent of the legislation, which was to stop discrimination in the public sphere and halt the abhorrent practice of segregation and Jim Crow laws.

I never, ever cheated [in medical school]. I don’t condone cheating. But I would sometimes spread misinformation. This is a great tactic. Misinformation can be very important.

All issues of crime are better addressed at the state level.

No Republican questions or disputes civil rights. I have never wavered in my support for civil rights or the civil rights act.

It is impossible for African-Americans not to feel like their government is particularly targeting them.

For liberty to expand, government must shrink. For the economy to grow, government must get out of the way.

We shouldn’t be fearful of freedom, we shouldn’t be fearful of individual liberty.

I don’t plan on being bashful.

I’m not in favor of any discrimination of any form.

Fear & complacency allow power to accumulate & liberty & privacy to suffer.

Let your new self breathe.

I like you brave, I like you breathing free, I like you feeling all of you in you.

Would you want to breathe if you were to ask for oxygen? Would you want to drink if you were to beg for a glass of water? would you want to eat if you were to pray for a plate of food? Well, I wouldn’t.

I want a love that as deep as it feels, it breathes just as free.

Revenge is all my soul knows. It’s the only thing I’ve lived and breathed for almost as long as I can remember.

Somewhere along the way, she weaved herself so deeply into my veins I can’t fucking inhale without her breathing life into me.

Sometimes when we hear a song we breathe deeply and sigh. This reminds the prophet that the soul arises from heavenly harmony. In thinking about this, he was aware that the soul itself has something in itself of this music.

Let your weary soul rest in between each borrowed breath.
