It is a great night. It is the end of Socialism.
There can be no liberty unless there is economic liberty.
Socialists cry "Power to the people", and raise the clenched fist as they say it. We all know what they really mean: power over people, power to the State.
I fight on, I fight to win.
I might have preferred iron, but bronze will do. It won't rust. And, this time I hope, the head will stay on.
Children who need to be taught to respect traditional moral values are being taught that they have an inalienable right to be gay.
Successful entrepreneurship is ultimately a matter of flair. But there is also a fund of practical knowledge to be acquired and, of course, the right legal and financial framework has to be provided for productive enterprise to develop.
Socialist governments traditionally do make a financial mess. They always run out of other people's money. It's quite a characteristic of them.
People on all levels of income are better off than they were in 1979. The hon. Gentleman is saying that he would rather that the poor were poorer, provided that the rich were less rich. That way one will never create the wealth for better social services. As we have. What a policy. Yes, he would rather have the poor poorer, provided that the rich were less rich. That is the Liberal policy.
Americans and Europeans alike sometimes forget how unique is the United States of America. No other nation has been created so swiftly and successfully. No other nation has been built upon an idea – the idea of liberty. No other nation has so successfully combined people of different races and nations within a single culture. Both the founding fathers of the United States and successive waves of immigrants to your country were determined to create a new identity. Whether in flight from persecution or from poverty, the huddled masses have, with few exceptions, welcomed American values, the American way of life and American opportunities. And America herself has bound them to her with powerful bonds of patriotism and pride. The European nations are not and can never be like this. They are the product of history and not of philosophy. You can construct a nation on an idea; but you cannot reconstruct a nation on the basis of one.
