What Ben said
“This case is not about you. It is not about your dyspepsia and having to deal with annoying toddlers. It is not even about the awfulness of postpartum depression. It is not about selfish women or abortion or the fall of Western civilization. This case is about a fact pattern.”
— **Ben Shapiro**
“The American dream is that if I pursue with vigor and determination and make the right decisions in my life, particular goals, then I have a shot of reaching those goals. That's the American dream because there are lots of places on earth that will give you a government guaranteed crappy apartment and a really junky car.”
— Ben Shapiro
“We are the good guys. We are better than anyone else. We got our own problems, we've got our own issues, but America is the shining city on the hill compared to the rest of humanity.”
— Ben Shapiro
“If you love America, you want America to be America for all of her kids. Well, I would like America to be America for all of her children. I would like it not to be say the Middle East for all of her kids.”

“All these people who are born into a Jewish family and their association with Judaism is that their parents once lit Shabbat candles, but they have never done so, and they eat not kosher and they don't keep Shabbat and they don't do anything Jewish at all, except occasionally say, 'as a Jew,' just to rip on other Jews—shut up, man. You don't get to speak for the Jews.”
— Ben Shapiro, on David Axelrod

— Ben Shapiro, on the hypocrisy of El-Sayed's defenders
“The coalition is the thing. Radical leftists plus radical Muslims. What a grand coalition.”
— Ben Shapiro
“All you have to do is be not crazy.”
— Ben Shapiro, on the Republican path to victory.
“The builder gets the federal investigation. The taker gets the parade.”
— Ben Shapiro, on the pattern of smearing those who produce.
“When you have a society that truly believes that all allegations of racism are to be treated at face value... then you have perverted the entire system of values.”
— Ben Shapiro
“[Hassan Piker] hates America's core values, but we'll use our core values against us.”
— Ben Shapiro
