“I'm from the government and I'm here to help.”

“The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.”

“Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves.”

“I hope we once again have reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There's a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: As government expands, liberty contracts.”

“I don't believe in a government that protects us from ourselves.”

“Government is not a solution to our problem government is the problem.”

“Our natural, inalienable rights are now considered to be a dispensation from government, and freedom has never been so fragile, so close to slipping from our grasp as it is at this moment.”
