More quotes by Ronald Reagan
Balancing your budget is like protecting your virtue. You have to learn when to say no.
Ronald Reagan
Our policy is simple: We are not going to betray our friends, reward the enemies of freedom, or permit fear and retreat to become American policies — especially in this hemisphere. None of the four wars in my lifetime came about because we were too strong.
Ronald Reagan
The greatest leader is not necessarily the one who does the greatest things. He is the one that gets the people to do the greatest things.
Ronald Reagan
I just don't think it's good for us to be run out of town. (Refusing to cancel Secretary of State visit to Moscow)
Ronald Reagan
Yes, the deficit doctors have their scalpels out all right, but they're not poised over the budget. That's as fat as ever and getting fatter. What they're ready to operate on is your wallet.
Ronald Reagan
I believe no challenge is more important to the character of America than restoring the right to life to all human beings.
Ronald Reagan
A broader reading of history shows that appeasement, no matter how it is labeled, never fulfills the hopes of the appeasers.
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
We must be cautious in claiming God is on our side. I think the real question we must answer is, are we on His side?
Ronald Reagan
I like photographers-you don't ask questions.
Ronald Reagan
I'm beginning to wonder if the symbol of the United States pretty soon isn't going to be an ambassador with a flag under his arm climbing into an escape helicopter.
Ronald Reagan
Now, I happen to be an optimist.
Ronald Reagan
You know, if Nancy Davis hadn't come along when she did, I would have lost my soul.
Ronald Reagan
Some may try to tell us that this is the end of an era. But what they overlook is that in America, every day is a new beginning. For this is the land that has never become, but is always in the act of becoming.
Ronald Reagan
Freedom-loving people around the world must say . . . I am a refugee in a crowded boat foundering off the coast of Vietnam. I am Laotian, a Cambodian, a Cuban, and a Miskito Indian in Nicaragua. I, too, am a potential victim of totalitarianism.
Ronald Reagan
If there's one observation that rings true in today's changing world, it is that freedom and peace go hand in hand.
Ronald Reagan
Each generation goes further than the generation preceding it because it stands on the shoulders of that generation. You will have opportunities beyond anything we've ever known.
Ronald Reagan
To those who cite the first amendment as reason for excluding God from more and more of our institutions and everyday life, may I just say: The first amendment of the Constitution was not written to protect the people of this country from religious values it was written to protect religious values from government tyranny.
Ronald Reagan
I never drink coffee at lunch. I find it keeps me awake for the afternoon.
Ronald Reagan
In this new world economy, national boundaries are increasingly becoming obsolete.
Ronald Reagan
