Ronald Reagan
Image
We were poor when I was young but the difference was that the government didn't come around telling you you were poor.

We've got to teach history based not on what's in fashion, but what's important.
Ronald Reagan
Image
History teaches that wars begin when governments believe the price of aggression is cheap. To keep the peace, we and our allies must be strong enough to convince any potential aggressor that war could bring no benefit, only disaster.
Ronald Reagan
Image
What is important is that one strives to achieve a goal.
Ronald Reagan
Image
To sit back hoping that someday, some way, someone will make things right is to go on feeding the crocodile, hoping he will eat you last - but eat you he will.
