More quotes by Ronald Reagan
Evil is powerless if the good are unafraid.
Ronald Reagan
I know all the bad things that happened in that war. I was in uniform four years myself.
Ronald Reagan
Anyone who seeks success or greatness should first forget about both and seek only the truth. The rest will follow.
Ronald Reagan
There is no foundation like the rock of honesty and fairness, and when you begin to build your life on that rock, with the cement of the faith in God that you have, then you have a real start.
Ronald Reagan
I told you once that [our marriage] was like an adolescent's dream of what marriage should be like. That hasn't changed.
Ronald Reagan
Sometimes when I'm faced with an atheist, I am tempted to invite him to the greatest gourmet dinner that one could ever serve, and when we have finished eating that magnificent dinner, to ask him if he believes there's a cook.
Ronald Reagan
The First Continental Congress made its first act a prayer, the beginning of a great tradition. We have then a lesson from the founders of our land. That lesson is clear: That in the winning of freedom and in the living of life, the first step is prayer.
Ronald Reagan
I believe that George Washington knew the City of Man cannot survive without the City of God that the Visible City will perish without the Invisible City.
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
The taxpayer - that's someone who works for the federal government but doesn't have to take the civil service examination.
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
Our goal is peace. We can gain that peace by strengthening our alliances, by speaking candidly about the dangers before us, by assuring potential adversaries of our seriousness, by actively pursuing every chance of honest and fruitful negotiation.
Ronald Reagan
We must never remain silent in the face of bigotry. We must condemn those who seek to divide us. In all quarters and at all times, we must teach tolerance and denounce racism, anti-Semitism and all ethnic or religious bigotry wherever they exist as unacceptable evils. We have no place for haters in America -- none, whatsoever.
Ronald Reagan
We the people tell the government what to do, it doesn't tell us.
Ronald Reagan
I never drink coffee at lunch. I find it keeps me awake for the afternoon.
Ronald Reagan
Free enterprise has done more to reduce poverty than all the government programs dreamed up by Democrats.
Ronald Reagan
A truly successful army is one that, because of its strength and ability and dedication, will not be called upon to fight, for no one will dare to provoke it.
Ronald Reagan
I think, too, that we've got to recognize that where the preservation of a natural resource like the redwoods is concerned, that there is a common sense limit. I mean, if you've looked at a hundred thousand acres or so of trees-you know, a tree is a tree, how many more do you need to look at? Opposing expansion of Redwood National Park.
Ronald Reagan
Sixty percent of our immigrants are admitted merely because they have relatives here. Many of these people are not immediate relative, but are part of extended families. The nepotistic U.S. policy lets in relatives then lets in the relatives' relatives, and so on, creating an endless and ever growing chain of new immigrants.
Ronald Reagan
America has always been greatest when we dared to be great. We can reach for greatness again. We can follow our dreams to distant stars, living and working in space for peaceful, economic, and scientific gain. Tonight, I am directing NASA to develop a permanently manned space station, and to do it within a decade.
Ronald Reagan
