BEN CARSONDon’t let anyone turn you into a slave.
BEN CARSONI don’t want my kids to grow up with no father like I did. I came to the conclusion a while ago that you can work until midnight and not be finished or you can work until 6 or 7 and not be finished. I decided I’d rather work until 6 or 7.
BEN CARSONYou can’t allow the forces of political correction to shut you up. I mean, why are people afraid to say, ‘Merry Christmas?’ Give me a break. If people don’t like it, yeah, they can go do something else.

BEN CARSONThere are a group of people who would like to silence everybody and have everybody go along to get along, but that’s not going to be very helpful for us in the long run, in terms of solving our problems. And somebody has to be courageous enough to actually stand up to, you know, the bullies.
BEN CARSONWe’ve reached a point where people are actually afraid to talk about what they want to say, because somebody might be offended. We’ve got to get over this sensitivity and it keeps people from saying what they really believe.
BEN CARSONResist this war on God, freedom of religion and freedom of speech.
BEN CARSONThere is a tendency of people to try to make you believe only a few people are smart. As a brain surgeon, I know better than that.
BEN CARSONYou can understand why I’m a believer. I have seen miracles.
BEN CARSONIntelligent people tend to talk about the facts. They don’t sit around and call each other names. That’s what you can find on a third grade playground.
BEN CARSONI first wanted to be a psychiatrist. I decided against that in medical school when I discovered that psychiatrists didn’t, in reality, do what they did on TV.
