More quotes by Ronald Reagan
I will stand on, and continue to use, the figures I have used, because I believe they are correct. Now, I'm not going to deny that you don't now and then slip up on something no one bats a thousand.
Ronald Reagan
When you can't make them see the light, make them feel the heat.
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
Her many achievements will be appreciated more as time goes on.
Ronald Reagan
ALEC has forged a unique partnership between state legislators and leaders from the corporate and business community. This partnership offers businessmen the extraordinary opportunity to apply their talents to solve America's problems and build on our opportunities.
Ronald Reagan
I've often wondered about the shyness of some of us in the West about standing for these ideals that have done so much to ease the plight of man and the hardships of our imperfect world. Let us be shy no longer. Let us go to our strength. Let us offer hope. Let us tell the world that a new age is not only possible, but probable.
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
Those who say that we're in a time when there are no heroes, they just don't know where to look.
Ronald Reagan
The more the plans fail, the more the planners plan.
Ronald Reagan
A drastic reduction in the deficit...will take place in the fiscal year '82.
Ronald Reagan
Have we the courage and the will to face up to the immorality and discrimination of the progressive tax, and demand a return to traditional proportionate taxation? ... Today in our country the tax collector's share is 37 cents of every dollar earned. Freedom has never been so fragile, so close to slipping from our grasp.
Ronald Reagan
The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.
Ronald Reagan
Do what's right and you'll please some of the people and astound the rest.
Ronald Reagan
Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. Those who have known freedom, and then lost it, have never known it again.
Ronald Reagan
Will you resist the temptation to get a government handout for your community? Realize that the doctor's fight against socialized medicine is your fight. We can't socialize the doctors without socializing the patients. Recognize that government invasion of public power is eventually an assault upon your own business.
Ronald Reagan
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
Don't let the doom criers and the cynics persuade you that the best is past.
Ronald Reagan
With the right to bear arms comes a great responsibility to use caution and common sense on handgun purchases.
Ronald Reagan
If not us, who? And if not now, when?
Ronald Reagan
I'm just a citizen temporarily in public service.
