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
If you owe the bank $10,000 you have a problem. If you owe the bank $10,000,000 they have a problem. After all is said and done, more is said than done. Government does not solve problems it subsidizes them.

Ronald Reagan
The victims of crime have been transformed into a group oppressively burdened by a system designed to protect them.
Ronald Reagan
A nation's greatness is measured not just by its gross national product or military power, but by the strength of its devotion to the principles and values that bind its people and define their character.
Ronald Reagan
No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear. Actually, a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we'll ever see on this earth!
Ronald Reagan
Americans are hungering to feel proud and patriotic again.
Ronald Reagan
I've always believed that a lot of the trouble in the world would disappear if we were talking to each other instead of about each other.
Ronald Reagan
Well, my head's full of questions My temp'rature's risin' fast Well, I'm lookin' for some answers But I don't know who to ask
Ronald Reagan
My basic rule is that I want people who don't want a job in government.
Ronald Reagan
No longer must government be allowed to ride roughshod, absorbing the people's wealth, usurping their rights, and crushing their spirit.
Ronald Reagan
I don't think any of us should forget that the security of America is our highest responsibility.
Ronald Reagan
Could there be a better answer to the stupidity of Karl Marx than millions of workers individually sharing in the ownership of the means of production.
