“Everyone seems to have internalized the fact that you can say anything you want at a televised debate, and only a tiny fraction of the audience will ever see a fact-check. So why not claim the moon is square?”

I know very much what I believe.

One of the things that I intend to devote a lot of time to in the coming years is continuing to try to move people’s hearts and minds with humor, with stories, with anecdotes, with facts and information.

The Constitution is brilliant for accountability; for posing factions against each other, to fight amongst themselves in government, which protects our liberty. But also in ensuring that decision-making is made by those who the people can hold accountable.

You don’t hear me lambasting, engaging in personal attacks, getting nasty. I don’t think that belongs in politics.

Mike Huckabee says the answer to our problems is to cure all diseases. I guess no one’s thought of that before.

Any country that makes U.S. service members get on their knees will feel the full force and fury of the United States of America.

I want you to take a good, hard look at me, America, because this is exactly what you’ve got coming.

We are witnessing a great awakening. Millions of Texans, millions of Americans are rising up to reclaim our country, to defend liberty and to restore the Constitution.

I offer myself as a leader to the people of this country because I think they’re looking for solutions, not lawyers arguing over laws or entertainers throwing out sound bites that draw media attention. We need to solve the problem.

Far too many young people are living in their parents’ basements, and I think it is important for people to have hope and a vision things can be different.

We`re saying the Washington establishment run behind Donald Trump.

We will stop the terrorist attacks before they occur because we will not be prisoners to political correctness. Rather, we will speak the truth. Border security is national security and we will not be admitting jihadists as refugees.

I have never supported amnesty, and I led the fight against Chuck Schumer’s gang of eight amnesty legislation in the Senate.

I do think we should be focused on substance and record. If you want a candidate who opposes amnesty, who opposes citizenship for the 12 million people here illegally, I’m the only candidate in the race who opposes that.

If Donald Trump is president, he will appoint liberals.

It’s not beneficial when you have a presidential candidate like Donald Trump, telling his supporters “punch that guy in the face.” I think everyone candidate ought to aspire toward civility, towards decency, towards bringing us together. I don’t think we should be using angry and hateful rhetoric.

We will have more crises and none of them will look like this because no two crises have anything in common except human nature.

t’s really an encouragement of discipleship, it looks like anything else that we’re offering to anyone else, any other person struggling with any other issue in their life.

I’ll buy metaphor, but simile’s a cop-out used by scaredycats who won’t commit to anything. Simile’s for cowards.

The word “souvenir” has, of course, slightly extended itself in meaning until it now denotes almost anything either breakable or useless.

Quite possibly there would be no other human beings left to be concerned about anything else.

You always know when you’re going to arrive. If you go by car, you don’t. Apart from anything else, I prefer cycling. It puts you in a good mood, I find.

What intrigued me more than anything else was finding out the way in which everything, all of creation.

I don’t believe there’s anything in life you can’t go back and fix.
