Regardless of their sincerity, their humanitarian motives, those who would sacrifice freedom for security have embarked on this downward path."
"Inflation is as violent as a mugger, as frightening as an armed robber and as deadly as a hit man."
"My philosophy of life is that if we make up our mind what we are going to make of our lives, then work hard toward that goal, we never lose - somehow we win out."
