You can't save free markets by socialism, I don't know where this idea ever came from. You save free markets by promoting free markets and sound money and balanced budgets. The whole reason why nobody wants to address the real problem is, we're spending a trillion dollars a year overseas running an empire, and it's coming to an end. This country is bankrupt, and we won't admit it. Eventually though, the dollar will go bust, and we will bring our troops home, and we will live within our means, but we ought to do it sensibly, rather than waiting for the collapse of the dollar, and this is what we're doing, we're on the verge of destroying our dollar. And then, you think we have problems now, problems then will be a lot worse, it'd look like the Weimar Republic, or a third world nation. And a lot of people know that, and they're scared to death, but we don't need to be making the problem worse by just propping up everything with more government programs, more inflation, and more helicopters, it won't work.

A truly free society is based on a vision of respect for people and what they value. In a truly free society, any business that disrespects its customers will fail, and deserves to do so. The same should be true of any government that disrespects its citizens. The central belief and fatal conceit of the current administration is that you are incapable of running your own life, but those in power are capable of running it for you. This is the essence of big government and collectivism.

A candidate has to understand that that is what it’s like running against Donald Trump, the age of having carefully controlled media appearances and a moderate approach to content creation – that is not going to work against Trump, who, whether he wants to make news or somebody else wants to make news about him, it happens every single day. It happens constantly. And the only way to occupy attention in a voter’s mind is to fight him for that space.

Chalta nahi zor kismat par ab humara kya karein, milte hain hum inhi kashmakash mein kya karein? - What am I to do, when my will does not move fate? What are we to do, when in these dilemmas we meet? Chalein tere kadam mere safar par jo kabhi, mehsoos hota hain tu mujhe aaj bhi yahin kahin. - And when your feet make their journey my way, I sense you close by, even today. Koi raat aasmano par teri zulf bichati hain, teri yaad chaand ke shakkal mein ubhar kar aati hain. - Sometimes the nights drape your tresses on the darkened sky Where the moon reflects your memories gone by. Mujhe tu kismat se chup kar kabhi mil ja, main khaak ho agar toh tu gulaab ban kar khil ja. - Meet me someday, hidden from destiny And if I am ashes by then, bloom like a rose. Meri nigahon mein qaid hain yeh manzar sabhi, chalte hain teri nigahon se tez khanjar sabhi. - These glimpses I have captured behind my eyes Running like daggers sharper than your eyes. Teri adaa kya kahun kis kadar haseen hain, tu haseen hain, har lihaaz mein aur haseen hain. - What could I ever say, of your beauty, your grace For you are beautifulI n every aspect, beyond beautiful. Main hoon wahin jahan tu hain kahin, juda na ho bas dua hain yehi, hoti rahengi mulakatein tum se, nigahon se dur ho dil se nahi. - I exist, where you exist, and I pray only that we are not pulled apart I will meet you again my love - out of only sight, and not heart.
