The young people when I go to McDonald's, the Hispanic clerks will come by, 'Sheriff, can we have a picture?' over and over again. At least they want a picture with me.

This is the sheriff you’re talking about, with a gun and badge that enforces the law. Nothing is going to stop me from cracking down on illegal immigration as long as the laws are there.

Maybe today you could have shot anybody and get away with it. So there's many times, I could have killed people. Legally, I could have killed many people, especially working undercover.

I'm an equal-opportunity law-enforcement guy - I lock everybody up.

If you come across illegal aliens committing crimes, other crimes, you deport them.

I am the constitutionally and legitimately elected sheriff, and I absolutely refuse to surrender my responsibility to the federal government.

Everything I did in the jails - chain gangs, everything - I haven't changed the policy. I did it, I stand by it, and I'm not going to change.

We learn by our problems. We correct our deficiencies if there are any.

I don't use e-mail or u-mail or whatever it's called.

Some people call me a publicity hound.

I get a lot of calls from families and people who have served time and they say, 'Thank you, Sheriff. I hate the tents.' That's music to my ears.

Misfortune wandering the same track lights now upon one and now upon another.

To be conscious that we are perceiving or thinking is to be conscious of our own existence.

I personally believe Patch scared the pants off normal, and it took off running for the far side of the world.

If you are not royalty, He is not King.

Colorado's collective shale deposits contain somewhere in the neighborhood of 1 trillion barrels of oil. That's almost as much as the entire world's proven oil reserves!

My face has always been my fortune anyway, not my body.

Although tyranny...may successfully rule over foreign peoples, it can stay in power only if it destroys first of all the national institutions of its own people.

Be good now, Potty...Weasel King.

We are going to learn more by what we see than by what we hear. Our actions speak so loudly that we don't have to say a word.. Words only account for about seven percent of our communication.

Don't Ever fix your lips like collagen And say something when you gon' end up apologing
