If Thomas Jefferson had heard us, he probably would have said, 'We shouldn't have free speech.'
I think I have some interesting things to say and I don't think anybody out there is saying them.
A Democratic president should propose a major permanent tax reduction on the middle class and working class. I suspect most of the public would find this attractive.

I'm not becoming western; I am still following my Pashtun culture, and I'm wearing a shalvar kamiz, a dupatta on my head.
On the day when I was shot, and on the next day, people raised the banners of 'I am Malala'. They did not say 'I am Taliban.'
