More quotes by Ronald Reagan
Government can and must provide opportunity, not smother it foster productivity not stifle it.
Ronald Reagan
With freedom goes responsibility, a responsibility that can only be met by the individual himself.
Ronald Reagan
If there's one thing the American people aren't lacking, it is courage.
Ronald Reagan
No nation in history has ever survived a tax burden that reached a third of its national income.
Ronald Reagan
Love your country, not for her power or wealth, but for her selflessness and her idealism.
Ronald Reagan
The Democrats say that the United States has had its days in the sun, that our nation has passed its zenith. They expect you to tell your children that the American people no longer have the will to cope with their problems, that the future will be one of sacrifice and few opportunities. My fellow citizens, I utterly reject that view.
Ronald Reagan
Well, my head's full of questions My temp'rature's risin' fast Well, I'm lookin' for some answers But I don't know who to ask
Ronald Reagan
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
Economists are people who wonder if what works in reality can also work in theory.
Ronald Reagan
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
Ronald Reagan
I heard one presidential candidate say that what this country needed was a president for the nineties. I was set to run again. I thought he said a president IN his nineties.
Ronald Reagan
I don't have too much time for fiction.
Ronald Reagan
Our government needs the church, because only those humble enough to admit they're sinners can bring democracy the tolerance it requires to survive
Ronald Reagan
I usually never walk by a microphone.
Ronald Reagan
If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under.
Ronald Reagan
The trouble with our Liberal friends is not that they're ignorant it's just that they know so much that isn't so.
Ronald Reagan
Today, we're taking a break from the concerns and the bustle of the work-a-day world. But we're also making a new beginning. As we gather around our dining room tables for the midday meal, 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
I deplore the tendency, in some institutions, to go directly toward training for a trade or profession or something and ignoring the liberal arts. It is the foundation of education.
Ronald Reagan
I couldn't help but say to [Mr. Gorbachev], just think how easy his task and mine might be in these meetings that we held if suddenly there was a threat to this world from another planet. [We'd] find out once and for all that we really are all human beings here on this earth together.
Ronald Reagan
America was founded by people who believe that God was their rock of safety. I recognize we must be cautious in claiming that God is on our side, but I think it's all right to keep asking if we're on His side.
Ronald Reagan
