“The causes of all panics, crashes and depressions can be summed up in only four words: the misuse of credit.”

The main propoganda trick of supporters of the allegedly “progressive” policy of government control is to blame capitalism for all that is unsatisfactory in present-day conditions and to extol the blessings of socialism. They have never attempted to prove their fallacious dogmas.

The greater the amount of capital invested per head of the worker, the more and better goods can be produced and consumed.

For them the main thing is not to improve the conditions of the masses, but to harm the entrepreneurs and capitalists even if this policy victimizes the immense majority of the people.

The so-called liberals of today have the very popular idea that freedom of speech, of thought, of the press, freedom of religion, freedom from imprisonment without trial-that all these freedoms can be preserved in the absence of what is called economic freedom.

To the masses, the catchwords of Socialism sound so enticing… so they will continue to work for Socialism, helping thereby to bring about the inevitable decline of the civilization which the nations of the West have taken thousands of years to build up.

The gold standard makes the money’s purchasing power independent of the changing, ambitions and doctrines of political parties and pressure groups. This is not a defect of the gold standard; it is its main excellence.

A free press can only exist where there is private control over the means of production

The essential feature of government is the enforcement of its decrees by beating, killing, and imprisoning. Those who are asking for more government interference are asking ultimately for more compulsion and less freedom.

In a battle between force and an idea, the latter always prevails.

All they did was to call their adversaries names and cast suspicion upon their motives. And, unfortunately, the average citizen cannot see through these stratagems.

Government is the only institution that can take a valuable commodity like paper, and make it worthless by applying ink.

Socialism is not an alternative to capitalism; it is an alternative to any system under which men can live as human beings.

Capitalism gave the world what it needed, a higher standard of living for a steadily increasing number of people.

All rational action is in the first place individual action. Only the individual thinks. Only the individual reasons. Only the individual acts.

Those who are asking for more government interference are asking ultimately for more compulsion and less freedom.

It is important to remember that government interference always means either violent action or the threat of such action.

Science and psychology have isolated the one prime cause for success or failure in life. It is the hidden self-image you have of yourself.

A sound-bite culture can’t discuss science very well. Exactly what we’re losing when we reduce biodiversity, the causes and consequences of global warming-these traumas can’t be adequately summarized in an evening news wrap-up.

Pornography is any act that has no artistic merit and causes sexual thoughts…Sounds like almost every commercial on TV to me.

If it seems like I’ve been lost in ‘lets remember’, If it seems I’m gettin’ older and missin’ my younger days, well you shoulda known me much better, cause the past is something that never got in my way.

Can’t do it, simply cause underneath ’em is too ugly.

Bravery is good when the cause is good.

What’s right and good doesn’t come naturally. You have to stand up and fight for it – as if the cause depends on you, because it does.

I have personally been affected by women’s reproductive health issues, and I will continue to support that cause and spread awareness about it.
