If you want more of something, subsidize it if you want less of something, tax it.
Ronald Reagan
Image
Bureaucracy is adept at protecting its nest.
Ronald Reagan
Image
What we don't need is more spending, and what we don't need are taxes, and what we do need is a lot less of both.
Ronald Reagan
Image
We could say the government spend like drunken sailors, but that would be unfair to drunken sailors, because the sailors are spending their own money.

It is the Soviet Union that runs against the tide of history . . . . [It is] the march of freedom and democracy which will leave Marxism-Leninism on the ash heap of history, as it has left other tyrannies which stifle the freedom and muzzle the self-expression of the people.
Ronald Reagan

Freedom is the very essence of our nation. To be sure, ours is not a perfect nation. But even with our troubles, we remain the beacon of hope for oppressed peoples everywhere. Never give up the fight for freedom - a fight which, though it may never end, is the most ennobling known to man.
Ronald Reagan

The problem is not that people are taxed too little, the problem is that government spends too much.
Ronald Reagan

This is a matter of vital importance to the public safety ... While we recognize that assault-weapon legislation will not stop all assault-weapon crime, statistics prove that we can dry up the supply of these guns, making them less accessible to criminals.
Ronald Reagan
Image
We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.
Ronald Reagan
Image
One day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.
Ronald Reagan
Image
There is no security, no safety, in the appeasement of evil.
Ronald Reagan

Jesse Helms wants me to move to the right, Lowell Weiker wants me to move to the left, and Teddy Kennedy wants me to move back to California.
Ronald Reagan
Image
I've talked to you on a number of occasions about the economic problems our nation faces, and I am prepared to tell you it's in a hell of a mess-we're not connected to the press room yet, are we?
Ronald Reagan
Image
The people of Central America - and, in a broader sense, the entire developing world - need to know first-hand that freedom and opportunity are not just for the elite, but the birthright of every citizen that property is not just something enjoyed by a few, but can be owned by any individual who works hard and makes correct decisions.
Ronald Reagan
Image
For one, we very much need in any immigration bill - we need protection for people who are in this country and who have not become citizens, for example, that they are protected and legitimized and given permanent residency here. And we want to see some things of that kind added to the immigration bill.

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.

My mother told me that everything in life happened for a purpose. She said all things were part of God's plan, even the most disheartening setbacks, and in the end, everything worked out for the best.
