"It is not the State that creates wealth, it is the individual."

"We have to get back to basics: to family, to community, to self-reliance."

"The state has no source of money other than the money people earn themselves. If the state wishes to spend more it can only do so by borrowing your savings or by taxing you more."

"I came to office with one paramount aim: to change the national mood. From despondency to hope, from dependency to self-reliance."

"I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith."
