“For there to be new growth of a conservative movement, of a right cent...” — Steve Schmidt Quote

“For there to be new growth of a conservative movement, of a right center party, the one that I joined in 1988, it needs to burn to the ground.”

“I've spent my life in the Republican party, it gives me no pleasure to say this. This party has demonstrated a complete incapacity to govern. Period.”

“I think that more and more Americans are insistent that, at a minimum, gay couples should be treated with respect and when they see a political party trying to stigmatize a group of people who are hardworking, who play by the rules, who raise decent families, they're troubled by it.”

“I've heard the stories. Like, Eric Clapton said he wanted to burn his guitar when he heard Jimi Hendrix play. I never understood that because, when I went and saw a great drummer or heard one, all I wanted to do was practice.”

“I want to hold a CD I didn't burn. I hate burnt CDs.”

“My whole history of being an actor is unusual and slightly disgraceful because it should be something you burn to do.”
