More quotes by Ronald Reagan
God, the source of our knowledge, has been expelled from the classroom. He gives us His greatest blessing, life, and yet many would condone the taking of innocent life. We expect Him to protect us in a crisis, but turn away from Him too often in our day-to-day living. I wonder if He isn't waiting for us to wake up.
Ronald Reagan
Democracy is not a fragile flower still it needs cultivating.
Ronald Reagan
Today we did what we had to do. They counted on America to be passive. They counted wrong.
Ronald Reagan
We're more than friends and neighbors and allies we are kin, who together have built the most productive relationship between any two countries in the world today.
Ronald Reagan
If there's one thing the American people aren't lacking, it is courage.
Ronald Reagan
I usually never walk by a microphone.
Ronald Reagan
For the eight years I was president I never let my dream of a nuclear-free world fade from my mind.
Ronald Reagan
There is no limit to the amount of good you can do if you don't care who gets the credit.
Ronald Reagan
No matter what time it is, wake me, even if it's in the middle of a Cabinet meeting.
Ronald Reagan
Inflation is as violent as a mugger, as frightening as an armed robber and as deadly as a hit man.
Ronald Reagan
I, for one, resent it when a representative of the people refers to you and me, the free men and women of this country, as 'the masses.'
Ronald Reagan
Let us thank God for life and the blessings He's put before us. High among them are our families, our freedom, and the opportunities of a new year.
Ronald Reagan
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
I have left orders to be awakened at any time during national emergency, even if I'm in a cabinet meeting.
Ronald Reagan
People do not make wars governments do.
Ronald Reagan
You and I have a rendezvous with destiny. We will preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man on earth.
Ronald Reagan
I've been told that some members of Congress disagree with my tax cut proposal. Well, you know it's been said that taxation is the art of plucking feathers without killing the bird. It's time they realized the bird just doesn't have any feathers left.
Ronald Reagan
I think all of us are agreed that war is probably man's greatest stupidity and I think peace is the dream that lives in the heart of everyone wherever he may be in the world, but unfortunately, unlike a family quarrel, it doesn't take two to make a war. It only takes one, unless the other one is prepared to surrender at the first hint of force.
Ronald Reagan
I'm beginning to wonder if the symbol of the United States pretty soon isn't going to be an ambassador with a flag under his arm climbing into an escape helicopter.
Ronald Reagan
It ought to be remembered by all [that] the Games more than 2,000 years ago started as a means of bringing peace between the Greek city-states. And in those days, even if a war was going on, they called off the war in order to hold the Games. I wish we were still as civilized.
Ronald Reagan
