More quotes by Ronald Reagan
The little dictator who went to Moscow in his green fatigues to receive a bear hug did not forsake the doctrine of Lenin when he returned to the West and appeared in a two-piece suit. (On Daniel Ortega Saavedra)
Ronald Reagan
The problem is not that people are taxed too little, the problem is that government spends too much.
Ronald Reagan
I've always thought New Year's Day was an especially American tradition, full of the optimism and hope we're famous for in our daily lives -- an energy and confidence we call the American spirit. Perhaps because we know we control our own destiny, we believe deep down inside that working together we can make each new year better than the old.
Ronald Reagan
Could there be anything resembling a free enterprise economy, if wealth and property were concentrated in the hands of a few, while the great majority owned little more than the shirts on their backs?
Ronald Reagan
Our military strength is a prerequisite to peace, but let it be clear we maintain this strength in the hope it will never be used.
Ronald Reagan
Young Americans must never again be sent to fight and die unless we are prepared to let them win.
Ronald Reagan
Facts are stupid things stubborn things, I should say.
Ronald Reagan

No, what unites them all is their willingness to believe in the magic of the marketplace.
Ronald Reagan
They don't worship at the altar of forced busing and mandatory quotas. They don't believe you can remedy past discrimination by mandating new discrimination. (Defending his nominees for Civil Rights Commission)
Ronald Reagan
No longer must government be allowed to ride roughshod, absorbing the people's wealth, usurping their rights, and crushing their spirit.
Ronald Reagan
Regimes planted by bayonets do not take root.
Ronald Reagan
Every new day begins with possibilities. It's up to us to fill it with the things that move us toward progress and peace.
Ronald Reagan
I believe in a sound, strong environmental policy that protects the health of our people and a wise stewardship of our nation's natural resources.
Ronald Reagan
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
Ronald Reagan
We desire peace. But peace is a goal, not a policy. Lasting peace is what we hope for at the end of our journey. It doesn't describe the steps we must take nor the paths we should follow to reach that goal.
Ronald Reagan
Of the four wars in my lifetime, none came about because the U.S. was too strong.
Ronald Reagan
Every dollar the federal government does not take from us, every decision it does not make for us, will make our economy stronger, our lives more abundant, our future more free.
Ronald Reagan
Liberals are people who think that being tough on crime means longer suspended sentences.
Ronald Reagan
Trees cause pollution.
Ronald Reagan
I am very proud to be called a pig. It stands for pride, integrity and guts.
Ronald Reagan
