More quotes by Ronald Reagan
The most fundamental paradox is that if we're never to use force, we must be prepared to use it and to use it successfully. We Americans don't want war and we don't start fights. We don't maintain a strong military force to conquer or coerce others. The purpose of our military is simple and straightforward: we want to prevent war.
Ronald Reagan
We've gone astray from first principles. We've lost sight of the rule that individual freedom and ingenuity are at the very core of everything that we've accomplished. Government's first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives.
Ronald Reagan
We were poor when I was young but the difference was that the government didn't come around telling you you were poor.
Ronald Reagan
We've been blessed with the opportunity to stand for something - for liberty and freedom and fairness. And these are things worth fighting for, worth devoting our lives to.
Ronald Reagan
We must never remain silent in the face of bigotry. We must condemn those who seek to divide us. In all quarters and at all times, we must teach tolerance and denounce racism, anti-Semitism and all ethnic or religious bigotry wherever they exist as unacceptable evils. We have no place for haters in America -- none, whatsoever.
Ronald Reagan
The crew of the space shuttle Challenger honored us by the manner in which they lived their lives. We will never forget them, nor the last time we saw them, this morning, as they prepared for their journey and waved good-bye and 'slipped the surly bonds of earth' to 'touch the face of God.
Ronald Reagan
Perhaps there is a simple answer -- not an easy answer -- but simple: If you and I have the courage to tell our elected officials that we want our national policy based on what we know in our hearts is morally right.
Ronald Reagan
The difference between them and us is that we want to check government spending and they want to spend government checks.
Ronald Reagan
This is not the time for political fun and games. This is the time for a new beginning. I ask you now to put aside any feelings of frustration or helplessness about our political institutions and join me in this dramatic but responsible plan to reduce the enormous burden of Federal taxation on you and your family.
Ronald Reagan
Surround yourself with great people delegate authority get out of the way
Ronald Reagan
I like photographers - you don't ask questions. (To a gathering of the White House News Photographers Association)
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
Our tax policy is engineered by people who view tax as a means of achieving changes in our social structure.
Ronald Reagan
Don't be afraid to see what you see.
Ronald Reagan
In 1939 Winston Churchill, describing the 5000-mile peaceful border dividing Canada and the United States, said, 'That long frontier from the Atlantic to the Pacific Oceans, guarded only by neighborly respect and honorable obligations, is an example to every country and a pattern for the future of the world.
Ronald Reagan
We don't have a trillion-dollar debt because we haven't taxed enough we have a trillion-dollar debt because we spend too much.
Ronald Reagan
If I'd gotten the job I wanted at Montgomery Ward, I suppose I would never have left Illinois.
Ronald Reagan
Inflation is as violent as a mugger, as frightening as an armed robber and as deadly as a hit man.
Ronald Reagan
If you put it on the table as a bargaining chip, it becomes a bargaining chip
Ronald Reagan
I'm convinced, more than ever, that man finds liberation only when he binds himself to God and commits himself to his fellow man.
Ronald Reagan
