Ronald Reagan
If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under.
Ronald Reagan
We could say the government spend like drunken sailors, but that would be unfair to drunken sailors, because the sailors are spending their own money.
Ronald Reagan

Ronald Reagan
I don't have too much time for fiction.
Ronald Reagan
The other day, someone told me the difference between a democracy and a people's democracy. It's the same difference between a jacket and a straitjacket.
Ronald Reagan
