More quotes by 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
Government is not the answer to the problem - it IS the problem.
Ronald Reagan
When I took the oath of office, I pledged loyalty to only one special interest group - ‘We the people’.
Ronald Reagan
I want to talk about political and economic fairy tales.
Ronald Reagan
Government is not a solution to our problem government is the problem.
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.
Ronald Reagan
The societies which have achieved the most spectacular broad-based economic progress in the shortest period of time are not the most tightly controlled, not necessarily the biggest in size, or the wealthiest in natural resources. No, what unites them all is their willingness to believe in the magic of the marketplace.
Ronald Reagan
The years ahead will be great ones for our country, for the cause of freedom and the spread of civilization. The West will not contain Communism, it will transcend Communism. We will not bother to denounce it, we'll dismiss it as a sad, bizarre chapter in human history whose last pages are even now being written.
Ronald Reagan
The Democrats say that the United States has had its days in the sun, that our nation has passed its zenith. They expect you to tell your children that the American people no longer have the will to cope with their problems, that the future will be one of sacrifice and few opportunities. My fellow citizens, I utterly reject that view.
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
One of mankind's problems is we keep committing the same errors.
Ronald Reagan
Even now I wonder what I might have accomplished if I'd studied harder
Ronald Reagan
Christmas can be celebrated in the school room with pine trees, tinsel and reindeers, but there must be no mention of the man whose birthday is being celebrated. One wonders how a teacher would answer if a student asked why it was called Christmas.
Ronald Reagan
You and I, as individuals, can, by borrowing, live beyond our means, but for only a limited period of time. Why, then, should we think that collectively, as a nation, we're not bound by that same limitation? We must act today in order to preserve tomorrow.
Ronald Reagan
We must have faith in the people of this country and faith in our principles.
Ronald Reagan
Our leaders must remember that education doesn't begin with some isolated bureaucrat in Washington. It doesn't even begin with state or local officials. Education begins in the home, where it is a parental right and responsibility.
Ronald Reagan
You know economists they're the sort of people who see something works in practice and wonder if it would work in theory.
Ronald Reagan
Only our deep moral values and our strong social institutions can hold back that jungle and restrain the darker impulses of human nature.
Ronald Reagan
I'm beginning to wonder if the symbol of the United States pretty soon isn't going to be an ambassador with a flag under his arm climbing into an escape helicopter.
Ronald Reagan
I will stand on, and continue to use, the figures I have used, because I believe they are correct. Now, I'm not going to deny that you don't now and then slip up on something no one bats a thousand.
