More quotes by Ronald Reagan
My doctors told me this morning my blood pressure is down so low that I can start reading the newspapers.
Ronald Reagan
I want to talk about political and economic fairy tales.
Ronald Reagan
There is no security, no safety, in the appeasement of evil.
Ronald Reagan
For the people of Israel and America are historic partners in the global quest for human dignity and freedom. We will always remain at each other's side.
Ronald Reagan
It doesn't require expropriation or confiscation of private property or business to impose socialism on a people. What does it mean whether you hold the deed or the title to your business or property if the government holds the power of life and death over that business or property?
Ronald Reagan
The years ahead will be great ones for our country, for the cause of freedom and the spread of civilization. The West will not contain Communism, it will transcend Communism. We will not bother to denounce it, we'll dismiss it as a sad, bizarre chapter in human history whose last pages are even now being written.
Ronald Reagan
We can have peace and brotherly love by accepting our responsibility to preserve freedom.
Ronald Reagan
I'm no linguist, but I have been told that in the Russian language, there isn't even a word for freedom.
Ronald Reagan
There you go again. When I opposed Medicare, there was another piece of legislation meeting the same problem before the Congress. I happened to favor the other piece of legislation and thought that it would be better for the senior citizens to provide better care than the one that was finally passed.
Ronald Reagan
Once people who have been deprived of basic freedom taste a little of it, they want all of it.
Ronald Reagan
Our federal tax system is, in short, utterly impossible, utterly unjust and completely counterproductive . . . [It] reeks with injustice, and is fundamentally un-American
Ronald Reagan
We don't have a trillion-dollar debt because we haven't taxed enough we have a trillion-dollar debt because we spend too much.
Ronald Reagan
Die-hard conservatives thought that if I couldn't get everything I asked for, I should jump off the cliff with the flag flying-go down in flames. No, if I can get 70 or 80 percent of what it is I'm trying to get ... I'll take that and then continue to try to get the rest in the future.
Ronald Reagan
The fourth landing of the Columbia is the historical equivalent of the driving of the golden spike which completed the first transcontinental railroad. It marks our entrance into a new era.
Ronald Reagan
I like photographers-you don't ask questions.
Ronald Reagan
The problem is not that people are taxed too little, the problem is that government spends too much.
Ronald Reagan
We must act today in order to preserve tomorrow
Ronald Reagan
I'm convinced that today the majority of Americans want what those first Americans wanted: A better life for themselves and their children a minimum of government authority.
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
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
Ronald Reagan
