More quotes by Gerald R. Ford
Let us put an end to self-inflicted wounds. Let us remember that our national unity is a most priceless asset. Let us deny our adversaries the satisfaction of using Vietnam to pit Americans against Americans.
Gerald R. Ford
I strongly support the feeding of children.
Gerald R. Ford
My fellow Americans, our long national nightmare is over. Our Constitution works our great Republic is a government of laws and not of men. Here the people rule. But there is a higher Power, by whatever name we honor Him, who ordains not only righteousness but love, not only justice but mercy.
Gerald R. Ford
Theirs is an American tragedy in which we all have played a part. It could go on and on, or someone must write The End to it. I have concluded that only I can do that. And if I can, I must.
Gerald R. Ford
Sit down before facts as a little child, be prepared to give up every preconceived notion — or you shall learn nothing.
Gerald R. Ford
We are bound together by the most powerful of all ties, our fervent love for freedom and independence, which knows no homeland but the human heart.
Gerald R. Ford
Today, America can regain the sense of pride that existed before Vietnam... These events, tragic as they are, portend neither the end of the world nor of America's leadership in the world.
Gerald R. Ford
I have always felt that the real purpose of government is to enhance the lives of people and that a leader can best do that by restraining government in most cases instead of enlarging it at every opportunity.
Gerald R. Ford
When a man is asked to make a speech, the first thing he has to decide is what to say.
Gerald R. Ford
I know I am getting better at golf because I am hitting fewer spectators.
Gerald R. Ford
It's more like it is now than it ever has been.
Gerald R. Ford
There are no adequate substitutes for father, mother, and children bound together in a loving commitment to nurture and protect. No government, no matter how well-intentioned, can take the place of the family in the scheme of things.
Gerald R. Ford
In baseball when they say you're out, you're out. It's the same way in politics.
Gerald R. Ford
An impeachable offense is whatever a majority of the House of Representatives considers it to be at a given moment in history conviction results from whatever offense or offenses two-thirds of the other body considers to be sufficiently serious to require removal of the accused from office.
Gerald R. Ford
The Communist leaders in Moscow, Peking and Hanoi must fully understand that the United States considers the freedom of South Viet Nam vital to our interests. And they must know that we are not bluffing in our determination to defend those interests.
Gerald R. Ford
My golf must be improving, I'm not hitting as many spectators.
Gerald R. Ford
Even though this is late in an election year, there is no way we can go forward except together and no way anybody can win except by serving the people's urgent needs. We cannot stand still or slip backwards. We must go forward now together.
Gerald R. Ford
Mr. President, putting it bluntly, wouldn't we just be continuing a bloodbath that already exists in Cambodia if we voted the 222 million in aid?
Gerald R. Ford
If compassion and mercy are not compatible with politics then something is the matter with politics.
Gerald R. Ford
Truth is the glue that holds government together.
