Here is my principle: Taxes shall be levied according to ability to pay. That is the only American principle.

Taxes should be simple and fair... I'm not for increasing income taxes - if we even have an income tax.

Read my lips: no new taxes.

I'm not for raising taxes on anyone - period.

I am for lowering taxes.

I'm like tax. You're going to pay one way or the other.

I love talking about taxes.

You know, gentlemen, that I do not owe any personal income tax. But nevertheless, I send a small check, now and then, to the Internal Revenue Service out of the kindness of my heart.

For every benefit you receive a tax is levied.
