"There is a common characteristic of civilizations in decline and that ultimately collapse, and that is that they end up spending far more than they take in."

"We need to increase the capacity in our highways or we are not going to see the economic growth which we projected as being part of this bill."

"We simply cannot keep going on spending trillions of dollars more than we take in without suffering high rates of inflation into the future and potentially losing our lead in the world."

"He’s got to recognize that, when he was elected, people were not looking for him to transform America. They were looking to get back to normal, to stop the crazy."
