But as Tom Wolfe wrote in Bonfire of the Vanities, at some point the people on welfare are going to figure out how to cross the street.&#8221;<\/p>\n<paragraph\/>\n<p>&#8220;I had planned to spend two days here in New York, but when I read the governor\u2019s new tax plan, I said, &#8216;I\u2019m getting out of here in two hours and 40 minutes!'&#8221;<\/p>\n<paragraph\/>\n<p>&#8220;I wish I could remember who said this: &#8216;Crime, politics, it\u2019s all the same.\u2019 Maybe if I can\u2019t remember who said it, I will take credit.&#8221;<\/p>\n<paragraph\/>\n<p>&#8220;How many of us would go down the street and ask somebody to give us money &#8212; other than the professional homeless crowd?&#8221;<\/p>\n<paragraph\/>\n<p>&#8220;I can tell you what Caroline Kennedy\u2019s qualifications are: She\u2019s JFK\u2019s daughter. She was an Obama team leader. She is a woman. She is rich, and she\u2019s thin, and that\u2019s really important when you\u2019re rich. If she was fat, it would be a problem, but when you\u2019re thin-rich, then you are truly sophisticated.&#8221;<\/p>\n<paragraph\/>\n<p>&#8220;If you don\u2019t have it, you don\u2019t have it, so go out and earn it.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125100.Par.0002.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"184\" height=\"72\"\/> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You\u2019re Missing Out on Thousands of Rush Quotes!
