More quotes by Ronald Reagan
America has not been a story or a byword. That small community of Pilgrims prospered and, driven by the dreams and, yes, by the ideas of the Founding Fathers, went on to become a beacon to all the oppressed and poor of the world.
Ronald Reagan
History comes and history goes, but principles endure, and ensure future generations will defend liberty not as a gift from government but as a blessing from our Creator.
Ronald Reagan
Government can and must provide opportunity, not smother it foster productivity not stifle it.
Ronald Reagan
Marijuana is probably the most dangerous drug in America today.
Ronald Reagan
Love your country, not for her power or wealth, but for her selflessness and her idealism.
Ronald Reagan
The District of Columbia is one gigantic ear.
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
The First Continental Congress made its first act a prayer, the beginning of a great tradition. We have then a lesson from the founders of our land. That lesson is clear: That in the winning of freedom and in the living of life, the first step is prayer.
Ronald Reagan
If I thought there was some reason to be concerned about them, I wouldn't be sleeping in this house tonight. (When asked about continued presence of Soviet nuclear submarines along US coastlines)
Ronald Reagan
Freedom prospers when religion is vibrant and the rule of law under God is acknowledged.
Ronald Reagan
As for the enemies of freedom, those who are potential adversaries, they will be reminded that peace is the highest aspiration of the American people. We will negotiate for it, sacrifice for it, we will not surrender for it - now or ever.
Ronald Reagan
In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem, government IS the problem. It isn't so much that liberals are ignorant, it's just that they know so much that isn't so.
Ronald Reagan
If you want more of something, subsidize it if you want less of something, tax it.
Ronald Reagan
Freedom is the very essence of our nation. To be sure, ours is not a perfect nation. But even with our troubles, we remain the beacon of hope for oppressed peoples everywhere. Never give up the fight for freedom - a fight which, though it may never end, is the most ennobling known to man.
Ronald Reagan
Inside the Bible's pages lie the answers to all the problems that mankind has ever known. I hope Americans will read and study the Bible.
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
Law and freedom must be indivisible partners. For without law, there can be no freedom, only choas and disorder and without freedom, law is but a cynical veneer for injustice and oppression.
Ronald Reagan
An actor knows two important things - to be honest in what he is doing and to be in touch with the audience. That's not bad advice for a politician either.
Ronald Reagan
We think there is a parallel between federal involvement in education and the decline in profit over recent years.
Ronald Reagan
Someone told me it was a round thing that gobbles up money. I thought that was Tip O'Neill.
