More quotes by Ronald Reagan
Someone told me it was a round thing that gobbles up money. I thought that was Tip O'Neill.
Ronald Reagan
It is the Soviet Union that runs against the tide of human history by denying human freedom and human dignity to its citizens.
Ronald Reagan
The taxpayer - that's someone who works for the federal government but doesn't have to take the civil service examination.
Ronald Reagan
We must always meet our obligation to those who fall behind without our assistance. But let's remember, without a race there can be no champion, no records broken, no excellence - in education or any other walk of life.
Ronald Reagan
Freedom is the very essence of our nation. To be sure, ours is not a perfect nation. But even with our troubles, we remain the beacon of hope for oppressed peoples everywhere. Never give up the fight for freedom - a fight which, though it may never end, is the most ennobling known to man.
Ronald Reagan
Are you better off today than you were four years ago?
Ronald Reagan

Ronald Reagan
I am told that tens of thousands of prayer meetings are being held on this day for that I am deeply grateful. We are a nation under God, and I believe God intended for us to be free. It would be fitting and good, I think, if on each inaugural day in future years it should be declared a day of prayer.
Ronald Reagan
Make no mistake, abortion-on-demand is not a right granted by the Constitution. No serious scholar, including one disposed to agree with the Court's result, has argued that the framers of the Constitution intended to create such a right.
Ronald Reagan
A bird on a tether, no matter how long the rope, can always be pulled back.
Ronald Reagan
You'd be surprised how much being a good actor pays off.
Ronald Reagan
There can be no security anywhere in the free world if there is no fiscal and economic stability within the United States.
Ronald Reagan
The victims of crime have been transformed into a group oppressively burdened by a system designed to protect them.
Ronald Reagan
For centuries the Bible's emphasis on compassion and love for our neighbor has inspired institutional and governmental expressions of benevolent outreach such as private charity, the establishment of schools and hospitals, and the abolition of slavery.
Ronald Reagan
I do not believe in a fate that will fall on us no matter what we do. I do believe in a fate that will fall on us if we do nothing.
Ronald Reagan
I sometimes think if someone appealed the Ten Commandments to some of our courts, they would rule - 'Thou shalt not, unless you feel strongly to the contrary'.
Ronald Reagan
I never thought it was my style or the words I used that made a difference. It was the content. I wasn't a great communicator, but I communicated great things.
Ronald Reagan
We must have faith in the people of this country and faith in our principles.
Ronald Reagan
