Quotes

Now, in New Jersey, we have more government workers per square mile than any state in America. But since I've been governor we now have fewer people on the state payroll at any time since Christie Whitman left office in January 2001. That's the right direction, Mr. President, not the wrong direction. Chris Christie
The job of a leader, the job of a governor, the job of a president, is to get the people in the room and bang enough heads together and rub enough arms and cajole enough to have them put the country and the state's greater interest ahead of their own personal partisan interest. That's what we did in New Jersey and that's the model for America. Chris Christie

Those are the things that people vote for you on, that's the core of who you are. But there's always a boulevard between that and getting everything you want. Chris Christie
The three top issues have to be restoring jobs and private sector job growth to our country, getting the entitlement mess under control, and restoring back to our country a sense of self-confidence that Americans can achieve whatever we want to achieve. Chris Christie
I'm making this decision based on whether I believe in my heart that I'm ready to be president of the United States and that I want to be president of the United States right now. Chris Christie
The people of New Jersey stepped up. They shared in the sacrifice. You know what else they did? They rewarded politicians who lead instead of politicians who pandered. Chris Christie
Chris Christie quote: "I think America needs lots of tough people. Not just me. I..."
I think America needs lots of tough people. Not just me. I think America needs to get tougher, all of us. Chris Christie
I said we are going to balance an $11 billion budget deficit in a $29 billion budget, so by percentage, the largest budget deficit in America, by percentage, larger than California, larger than New York, larger than Illinois. And we're going to balance that without raising taxes on the people of the state of New Jersey. Chris Christie
Chris Christie quote: "Today we must make a pact with each other to end this reckless..."
Today we must make a pact with each other to end this reckless conduct with the people's government. Chris Christie
We believe - we believe that, if we tell the people the truth, that they will act bigger than the pettiness we see in Washington, D.C. We believe it is possible to forge bipartisan compromise, and stand up for our conservative principles. Chris Christie
