I tend to like to read history - recent history, because I find that much more intriguing than just a writer's imagination.
A war is justified if you're willing to send your son. If you're not willing to send your son, then how do you send someone else's?
I believe that the Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin are two of the greatest rock bands ever!
You can't legislate morality.
You can't legislate against stupidity.
Let me say this: I'm paranoid of the government. They've lost my trust. They've lied to me so many times that I don't know what to believe from them anymore.
I would rather be uncomfortable with the truth than to be lied to in comfort. That's just my nature.
My father used to always say to me that, you know, if a guy goes out to steal a loaf of bread to feed his family, they'll give him 10 years, but a guy can do white-collar crime and steal the money of thousands and he'll get probation and a slap on the wrist.
My four years as governor, I never met with a lobbyist once, never. Not one lobbyist got in my office.
If you were to come to Minnesota, I could have you locked up like that. That's power.
I'm saying that there's way more to 9/11 than mainstream media and our government have told us.
Let's face it: WikiLeaks exists because the mainstream media haven't done their job.
If the government mandates anything with a price tag on it, then it ought to fund the project.
I like surfing in Mexico a whole lot better than sitting with people in Washington that I don't even like.
My children were attacked by the Minnesota media when I was governor.
When I ran for governor of Minnesota, I only raised $300,000.
If waterboarding's OK, why don't we let our police do it to suspects so we can learn what they know? We only seem to waterboard Muslims... Have we waterboarded anyone else?
In wrestling, my mustache made me look more like a villain. A good mustache can give you the look of the devil.
Get every candidate to wear a NASCAR racing suit when they go debate; this way we can see how their sponsors really are.
I also believe that government has no business telling us how we should live our lives. I think our lifestyle choices should be left up to us. What we do in our private lives is none of the government's business. That position rules out the Republican Party for me.
