Ronald Reagan

Ronald Reagan
I know that some believe that voluntary prayer in schools should be restricted to a moment of silence. We already have the right to remain silent - we can take our Fifth Amendment.
Ronald Reagan
This is not the time for political fun and games. This is the time for a new beginning.

Ronald Reagan
In opening our hearts, we hope this might promote greater awareness of this condition. Perhaps it will encourage a clearer understanding of the individuals and families who are affected by it.
Ronald Reagan
Abraham Lincoln recognized that we could not survive as a free land when some men could decide that others were not fit to be free and should therefore be slaves. Likewise, we cannot survive as a free nation when some men decide that others are not fit to live and should be abandoned to abortion or infanticide.
Ronald Reagan
We think there is a parallel between federal involvement in education and the decline in profit over recent years.
Ronald Reagan
Free enterprise is a rough and competitive game. It is a hell of a lot better than a government monopoly.
Ronald Reagan
I think maybe there could be some restrictions that there had to be a certain amount of training taken.
Ronald Reagan
Like the genocide of the Armenians before it, and the genocide of the Cambodians which followed it ... the lessons of the Holocaust must never be forgotten.
Ronald Reagan
No matter how big and powerful government gets, and the many services it provides, it can never take the place of volunteers.
Ronald Reagan
. . . I hope that when you're my age, you'll be able to say as I have been able to say: We lived in freedom, we lived lives that were a statement, not an apology.
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
Education is like a diamond with many facets: It includes the basic mastery of numbers and letters that give us access to the treasury of human knowledge, accumulated and refined through the ages it includes technical and vocational training as well as instruction in science, higher mathematics, and humane letters.
