More quotes by Ronald Reagan
I'm just a citizen temporarily in public service.
Ronald Reagan
I'll be like Scarlett O'Hara-I'll think about it tomorrow.
Ronald Reagan
When we speak of peace, we should not mean just the absence of war. True peace rests on the pillars of individual freedom, human rights, national self-determination, and respect for the rule of law.
Ronald Reagan
When people tell me that I became President on January 20th, 1981, I feel I have to correct them. You don't become President of the United States. You are given temporary custody of an institution called the Presidency, which belongs to our people.
Ronald Reagan
They are our brothers, these freedom fighters.... They are the moral equal of our Founding Fathers and the brave men and women of the French Resistance. We cannot turn away from them, for the struggle here is not right versus left it is right versus wrong.
Ronald Reagan
It is the Soviet Union that runs against the tide of history . . . . [It is] the march of freedom and democracy which will leave Marxism-Leninism on the ash heap of history, as it has left other tyrannies which stifle the freedom and muzzle the self-expression of the people.
Ronald Reagan
I'm proud of having been one of the first to recognize that states and the federal government have a duty to protect our natural resources from the damaging effects of pollution that can accompany industrial development.
Ronald Reagan
Governments don't control things. A government can't control the economy without controlling people.
Ronald Reagan
God, the source of our knowledge, has been expelled from the classroom. He gives us His greatest blessing, life, and yet many would condone the taking of innocent life. We expect Him to protect us in a crisis, but turn away from Him too often in our day-to-day living. I wonder if He isn't waiting for us to wake up.
Ronald Reagan
America has always been greatest when we dared to be great. We can reach for greatness again. We can follow our dreams to distant stars, living and working in space for peaceful, economic, and scientific gain. Tonight, I am directing NASA to develop a permanently manned space station, and to do it within a decade.
Ronald Reagan
There's no question I am an idealist, which is another way of saying 'I am an American.'
Ronald Reagan
Permanent brain damage is one of the inevitable results of the use of marijuana.
Ronald Reagan
I have learned that one of the most important rules in politics is poise - which means looking like an owl after you have behaved like a jackass.
Ronald Reagan
We establish no religion in this country. We command no worship. We mandate no belief, nor will we ever. Church and state are and must remain separate.
Ronald Reagan
I know all the bad things that happened in that war. I was in uniform four years myself.
Ronald Reagan
We have every right to dream heroic dreams.
Ronald Reagan
Because you won't get gun control by disarming law abiding citizens. There's only one way to get real gun control: Disarm the thugs and the criminals, lock them up, and if you don't actually throw away the key, at least lose it for a long time.
Ronald Reagan
I don't know what I expected, but my first morning in the Oval Office had a surprising ring of familiarity to it. It reminded me a lot of my job as governor.
Ronald Reagan
I have only one thing to say to the tax increasers: Go ahead, make my day.
Ronald Reagan
With regard to the freedom of the individual for choice with regard to abortion, there is one individual who is not being considered at all, and that is the one who is being aborted. And I have noticed that everybody that is for abortion has already been born.
