Ronald Reagan

Ronald Reagan

Ronald Reagan
The government is currently experiencing withdrawal symptoms, and we musn't feed the habit by injecting more tax dollars into it.
Ronald Reagan
You and I, as individuals, can, by borrowing, live beyond our means, but for only a limited period of time. Why, then, should we think that collectively, as a nation, we're not bound by that same limitation? We must act today in order to preserve tomorrow.
Ronald Reagan
You know, it was only a generation ago that actors couldn't be buried in the churchyard.
Ronald Reagan
