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
Most of my dreams came true.
Ronald Reagan
But I also happen to be someone who believes in tithing--the giving of a tenth .
Ronald Reagan
Our spirit is back, but we haven't reinstitutionalized it. We've got to do a better job of getting across that America is freedom - freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of enterprise. And freedom is special and rare. It's fragile it needs production [protection].
Ronald Reagan
Someone told me it was a round thing that gobbles up money. I thought that was Tip O'Neill.
Ronald Reagan
I am an environmentalist. ... I am for clean air.
Ronald Reagan
