And government's only role is to secure our rights for us.

But today, government is taking those rights from us, pretending that it gives us our rights. Indeed, those rights come from God, and it was recognized throughout our history as such.

The forefathers, including James Madison, felt very strongly that the duties that we owe to God were outside of government's prerogative, that government had no business interfering with the way we worship God.

The First Amendment to the Constitution reflects that concept recognized in the Ten Commandments, that the duties we owe to God and the manner of discharging those duties are outside the purview of government.

If government can give you rights, government can take them away from you.

If God gives you rights, no man and no government can take them away from you.

But separation of church and state was never meant to separate God and government.

The motivation for war is simple. The U.S. government started the war with Iraq in order to make it easy for U.S. corporations to do business in other countries. They intend to use cheap labor in those countries, which will make Americans rich.

I don't want the federal government to rush in and bail the out right away.

Let's say there are 500 sons and daughters like you in each state. Then we could control the government.

There is no government in Europe where ministers go through that kind of confirmation process, which in fact is modeled on the way the U.S. cabinet members are confirmed.

There is not much less vexation in the government of a private family than in the managing of an entire state.

The best form of government is that which is most likely to prevent the greatest sum of evil.

Never did a government commence under auspices so favorable, nor ever was success so complete.

I was pretty much the government's poster boy for what I had done.
