More quotes by Gordon Brown

We not only saved the world, er, saved the banks...

We will not return to the old boom and bust.

We should be a leader in Europe, not leaving it

My first rule – the golden rule – ensures that over the economic cycle the Government will borrow only to invest, and that current spending will be met from taxation.

And as I leave the second most important job I could ever hold, I cherish even more the first – as a husband and father.
