When you have a fire in an aircraft, there's no place to go, exactly, there's no - and you can't find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don't open. I don't know why they don't do that. It's a real problem.Collection: Stupid
No one's ever asked to see my birth certificate, they know that this is the place that we were born and raised.Collection: Stupid People
PETA is not happy that my dog likes fresh air.Collection: Dog
A Pakistan that falls apart, becomes a failed state, would be of extraordinary danger to Afghanistan and to America.Collection: Fall
I don't believe that bureaucrats in Washington should tell someone whether they can use contraceptives or not. And I don't believe employers should tell someone whether they could have contraceptive care of not. Every woman in America should have access to contraceptives.Collection: Believe
I don't want to see trickle down racism. I don't want to see a president of the United States saying things which change the character of the generations of Americans that are following. Presidents have an impact on the nature of our nature. And trickle down racism, trickle down bigotry, and trickle down misogyny, all these extraordinarily dangerous to the heart and character of America.Collection: Heart
Twenty five years in business, including business with other nations, competing with companies across the world, has given me an understanding of what it is that makes America a good place to grow and add jobs, and why jobs leave America - why businesses decide to locate here, and why they decide to locate somewhere else.Collection: Jobs
This is a nation of immigrants. We welcome people coming to this country as immigrants. My dad was born in Mexico of American parents; Ann's dad was born in Wales and is a first-generation American. We welcome legal immigrants into this country.Collection: Country
I have seen a lot of people, by the way, who were pro-life become pro-choice. No one seems to have any difficulty with that at all. That's easily accepted. But, if you are pro-choice and you become pro-life, there are a lot of folks, particularly in the media, who find that unacceptable.Collection: Media
I don't mind that people have questions and would look for someone to respond to their questions, particularly if their faith is not terribly well-known.Collection: People
There are 160,000 of our men and women in Iraq that wonder whether there is going to be a hand grenade or a missile lobbed into where they are sleeping at night. Those are people who make a real sacrifice.Collection: Real
I will get America working again and see rising take-home pay again.Collection: Home
This, in my view, is the highest responsibility of the President of the United States, which is to maintain the safety of the American people.Collection: Responsibility
I'm pleased that I've balanced budgets. I was on the world of business for 25 years. If you didn't balance your budget, you went out of business. I went into the Olympics that was out of balance, and we got it on balance, and made a success there. I had the chance to be governor of a state. Four years in a row, Democrats and Republicans came together to balance the budget. We cut taxes 19 times and balanced our budget.Collection: Cutting
We can't expect entrepreneurs and businesses large and small to take their life savings or their company's money and invest in America if they think we're headed to the road to Greece. And that's where we're going right now unless we finally get off this spending and borrowing binge. And I'll get us on track to a balanced budget.Collection: Thinking
We have to stand for our principles, stand for our allies, stand for a strong military and stand for a stronger economy.Collection: Strong
China has an interest that's very much like ours in one respect, and that is they want a stable world. They don't want war. They don't want to see protectionism. They don't want to see the world break out into various forms of chaos.Collection: War
I happen to believe that if we want to replace a lifetime politician like Barack Obama, who had no experience leading anything... We've got to nominate a leader if we're going to replace someone who is not a leader.Collection: Believe
For me, politics is not a career. For me, my career was being in business and starting a business and making it successful. My - my life's passion has been my family, my faith, and my country.Collection: Country
I've seen a lot of government try to solve problems, and it didn't work. And my view is that the right course for America is to have someone who understands how the economy works who will passionately get America back on track.Collection: America
People who are government servants, public servants, should not be paid more than the taxpayers who are paying for it.Collection: Government
The right way to deal with healthcare reform is not to have a one-size-fits-all plan that's imposed on all the states, but recognizing the differences between different states' populations, states should be able to craft their own plans to get all their citizens insured, and to make sure that preexisting conditions are covered.Collection: Healthcare Reform
I believe very firmly in the principle of free agency - people making their own decisions and doing what they think is right.Collection: Believe
Small business is where jobs come from. Two-thirds of our jobs come from small businesses.Collection: Jobs
I was in the world of business for 25 years. If you didn't balance your budget, you went out of business.Collection: Years
President Obama has thrown allies like Israel under the bus, even as he has relaxed sanctions on Castro's Cuba. He abandoned our friends in Poland by walking away from our missile defense commitments, but is eager to give Russia's President Putin the flexibility he desires, after the election. Under my administration, our friends will see more loyalty, and Mr. Putin will see a little less flexibility and more backbone.Collection: Loyalty
A leader has the capacity of vision, the ability to see where things are headed before people in general see those things.Collection: People
China is stealing our intellectual property, our patents, our designs, our technology, hacking into our computers, counterfeiting our goods.Collection: Technology
I pray. Prayer is a time to connect with the divine, but also time, I'm sure, to concentrate one's thoughts, to meditate, and to imagine what might be.Collection: Prayer
And wages - we'll see the end of this decline we're having. The median income in America is down 10% in just the last four years. That's got to stop. We've got to start seeing rising wages and job growth.Collection: Jobs
I do not favor same-sex marriage. I oppose same-sex marriage, and that has been my view. But, but if people are looking for someone who will discriminate against gays or will in any way try and suggest that people that have different sexual orientation don't have full rights in this country, they won't find that in me.Collection: Country
Pakistan is a nation, which, if it falls apart, if it becomes a failed state, there are nuclear weapons there and you've got terrorists there who could grab their hands onto those nuclear weapons.Collection: Fall
It's not government that makes business successful. It's not government investments that makes businesses grow and hire people.Collection: Successful
Iraq is fragile and may fall back into a devastating setting. We're not making the kind of progress in Afghanistan that had been promised. And our esteem around the world has fallen. I can't think of a major country. It's hard to think of a single country that has greater respect and admiration for America today than it did five years ago when Barack Obama became President. And that's a very sad, unfortunate state of affairs.Collection: Country
I think Mitt Romney has demonstrated repeatedly he has a penchant for - for secrecy, doesn't seem to have any interest in actually showing the American people his - his finances, decision - important decisions about his investments, refuses to come clean on his time at Bain Capital and when he was really there, and, you know, be held accountable for the outsourcing of jobs and the off-shoring of jobs and shipping jobs overseas.Collection: Jobs
The kids of those that came here illegally, those kids, I think, should have a pathway to become a permanent resident of the United States and military service, for instance, is one way they would have that kind of pathway to become a permanent resident.Collection: Military
There are a number of things that sound good, but frankly, we just can't afford them. And Obamacare doesn't sound good and it's not affordable.Collection: Obamacare
We have an opportunity to have real leadership. America's going to have that kind of leadership and continue to promote principles of peace to make a world a safer place and make people in this country more confident that their future is secure.Collection: Country
When you give a speech you don't go through a laundry list, you talk about the things that you think are important.Collection: Stupid
I like those fancy raincoats you bought. Really sprung for the big bucks.Collection: Stupid People
I just think the American people had expected that the president of the United States would be able to describe what he's going to do in the next four years. But he can't. He can't even explain what he's done in the last four years.Collection: Thinking
There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what.Collection: People
I want our legal system to work better. I want it to be streamlined, I want it to be clearer. I don’t think you have to — shouldn’t have to hire a lawyer to figure out how to get into this country legally.Collection: Usa
In order to be able to fulfill our role in the world, America must be strong. America must lead. And for that to happen, we have to strengthen our economy here at home.Collection: Strong
I believe marriage is a relationship between a man and a woman.Collection: Believe
In France, for instance, I'm told that marriage is now frequently contracted in seven-year terms where either party may move on when their term is up. How shallow and how different from the Europe of the past.Collection: Party
We should have communicated to Iran that we are prepared, that we are considering military options. They're not just on the table, they are in our hands.Collection: Military
The greatest threat that the world faces is a nuclear Iran...Collection: Nuclear Iran
I don't want to be like Europe. I want to be like America.Collection: Europe
