Quote from alfonso:
* The real question for 1988 is whether we're going to go forward to tomorrow or past to the -- to the back!
* We're going to have the best-educated American people in the world.
* I'm going to be a vice president very much like George Bush was. He proved to be a very effective vice president, perhaps the most effective we've had in a couple of hundred years.
* It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's the impurities in our air and water that are doing it.
* We have a firm commitment to NATO, we are a *part* of NATO. We have a firm commitment to Europe. We are a *part* of Europe.
* I love California, I practically grew up in Phoenix
* Add one little bit on the end... Think of 'potato,' how's it spelled? You're right phonetically, but what else...? There ya go...alright!
-- Vice President Dan Quayle correcting a student's correct spelling of the word "potatoe" during a spelling bee at an elementary school in Trenton.
* I should have caught the mistake on that spelling bee card. But as Mark Twain once said, "You should never trust a man who has only one way to spell a word."
-- Vice President Dan Quayle, actually quoting from President Andrew Jackson.
* For NASA, space is still a high priority.
* Our party has been accused of fooling the public by calling tax increases 'revenue enhancement.' Not so. No one was fooled.
* People are not homeless if they're sleeping in the streets of their own hometowns.
* Republicans have been accused of abandoning the poor. It's the other way around. They never vote for us.
* Bank failures are caused by depositors who don't deposit enough money to cover losses due to mismanagement.
* I believe we are on an irreversible trend toward more freedom and democracy - but that could change.
* One word sums up probably the responsibility of any vice president, and that one word is 'to be prepared'.
