More quotes by Ronald Reagan

Ronald Reagan

Ronald Reagan

Ronald Reagan

Ronald Reagan
. . . I hope that when you're my age, you'll be able to say as I have been able to say: We lived in freedom, we lived lives that were a statement, not an apology.
Ronald Reagan
[The Soviets] preach the supremacy of the state, declare its omnipotence over individual man, and predict its eventual domination of all peoples on the earth they are the focus of evil in the modern world.
Ronald Reagan
The economic welfare of all our people must ultimately stem not from government programs, but from the wealth created by a vigorous private sector.
Ronald Reagan
Preservation of our environment is not a liberal or conservative challenge, it's common sense.
Ronald Reagan
If you want more of something, subsidize it if you want less of something, tax it.
Ronald Reagan
I believe with all my heart that our first priority must be world peace, and that use of force is always and only a last resort, when everything else has failed, and then only with regard to our national security.
Ronald Reagan
No matter how big and powerful government gets, and the many services it provides, it can never take the place of volunteers.
Ronald Reagan
To grasp and hold a vision, that is the very essence of successful leadership-not only on the movie set where I learned it, but everywhere.
Ronald Reagan
The most confident person in any transaction ALWAYS introduces themselves first.
Ronald Reagan
A university is a place where ancient tradition thrives alongside the most revolutionary ideas. Perhaps as no other institution, a university is simultaneously committed to the day before yesterday and the day after tomorrow.
Ronald Reagan
