When I took the oath of office, I pledged loyalty to only one special interest group - ‘We the people’.
Ronald Reagan
Image
Surround yourself with the best people you can find, delegate authority, and don't interfere as long as the policy you've decided upon is being carried out.
Ronald Reagan
Image
America has always been greatest when we dared to be great. We can reach for greatness again. We can follow our dreams to distant stars, living and working in space for peaceful, economic, and scientific gain. Tonight, I am directing NASA to develop a permanently manned space station, and to do it within a decade.
Ronald Reagan

Preservation of our environment is not a liberal or conservative challenge, it's common sense.
Ronald Reagan
Image
If it's to be a bloodbath, let it be now. Appeasement is not the answer.
Ronald Reagan
Image
Information is the oxygen of the modern age.
Ronald Reagan
Image
Labor force needs and economic conditions are disregarded in our policies. Many aspects of our current policies and procedures are patently wrong. For example, legal immigration has almost no link to U.S. employment needs or economic conditions.
Ronald Reagan
Image
Could there be a better answer to the stupidity of Karl Marx than millions of workers individually sharing in the ownership of the means of production.
Ronald Reagan
Image
Those who advocate more and more government regulation have been experimenting for 40 years, trying to create an economic system in which everyone can somehow be made more prosperous by the toil of someone else.
Ronald Reagan
Image
Our goal is peace. We can gain that peace by strengthening our alliances, by speaking candidly about the dangers before us, by assuring potential adversaries of our seriousness, by actively pursuing every chance of honest and fruitful negotiation.

You know, it was only a generation ago that actors couldn't be buried in the churchyard.
Ronald Reagan
Image
Through the history of our nation, Americans have always extended their hands in gestures of assistance.
Ronald Reagan
Image
Christmas can be celebrated in the school room with pine trees, tinsel and reindeers, but there must be no mention of the man whose birthday is being celebrated. One wonders how a teacher would answer if a student asked why it was called Christmas.
Ronald Reagan
Image
Freedom is indivisible - there is no s on the end of it. You can erode freedom, diminish it, but you cannot divide it and choose to keep some freedoms while giving up others.
Ronald Reagan
Image
The societies which have achieved the most spectacular broad-based economic progress in the shortest period of time are not the most tightly controlled, not necessarily the biggest in size, or the wealthiest in natural resources. No, what unites them all is their willingness to believe in the magic of the marketplace.
Ronald Reagan
Image
By 1980, we knew it was time to renew our faith, to strive with all our strength toward the ultimate in individual freedom consistent with an orderly society. We believed then and now there are no limits to growth and human progress when men and women are free to follow their dreams.
Ronald Reagan
Image
The most fundamental paradox is that if we're never to use force, we must be prepared to use it and to use it successfully. We Americans don't want war and we don't start fights. We don't maintain a strong military force to conquer or coerce others. The purpose of our military is simple and straightforward: we want to prevent war.
Ronald Reagan
Image
In opening our hearts, we hope this might promote greater awareness of this condition. Perhaps it will encourage a clearer understanding of the individuals and families who are affected by it.

If you put it on the table as a bargaining chip, it becomes a bargaining chip
