More quotes by 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
Only our deep moral values and our strong social institutions can hold back that jungle and restrain the darker impulses of human nature.
Ronald Reagan
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
History teaches that war begins when governments believe the price of aggression is cheap.
Ronald Reagan
In a world wracked by hatred, economic crisis, and political tension, America remains mankind's best hope.
Ronald Reagan
Freedom and the dignity of the individual have been more available and assured here than in any other place on earth. The price for this freedom at times has been high, but we have never been unwilling to pay the price.
Ronald Reagan
Now, so there will be no misunderstanding, it's not my intention to do away with government. It is rather to make it work - work with us, not over us to stand by our side, not ride on our back. Government can and must provide opportunity, not smother it foster productivity, not stifle it.
Ronald Reagan
I've always thought New Year's Day was an especially American tradition, full of the optimism and hope we're famous for in our daily lives -- an energy and confidence we call the American spirit. Perhaps because we know we control our own destiny, we believe deep down inside that working together we can make each new year better than the old.
Ronald Reagan
I don't have too much time for fiction.
Ronald Reagan
I usually never walk by a microphone.
Ronald Reagan
Our spirit is back, but we haven't reinstitutionalized it. We've got to do a better job of getting across that America is freedom - freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of enterprise. And freedom is special and rare. It's fragile it needs production [protection].
Ronald Reagan
I believe with all my heart that our first priority must be world peace, and that use of force is always and only a last resort, when everything else has failed, and then only with regard to our national security.
Ronald Reagan
While I take inspiration from the past, like most Americans, I live for the future.
Ronald Reagan
You can achieve anything in politics provided that you let someone else take the credit.
Ronald Reagan
The neutron warhead is a defensive weapon designed to offset the great superiority that the Soviet Union has on the western front against the NATO nations.
Ronald Reagan
Environmental extremists ... wouldn't let you build a house unless it looked like a bird's nest.
Ronald Reagan
We didn't discover our values in a poll taken a week before the convention.
Ronald Reagan
I supported this bill. I believe in the idea of amnesty for those who have put down roots and who have lived here even though sometime back they may have entered illegally.
Ronald Reagan
There is no limit to the amount of good you can do if you don't care who gets the credit.
Ronald Reagan
Our National Motto - 'In God We Trust' - was not chosen lightly. It reflects a basic recognition that there is a divine authority in the universe to which this nation owes homage.
