More quotes by Ronald Reagan
Do what's right and you'll please some of the people and astound the rest.
Ronald Reagan
Our policy is simple: We are not going to betray our friends, reward the enemies of freedom, or permit fear and retreat to become American policies — especially in this hemisphere. None of the four wars in my lifetime came about because we were too strong.
Ronald Reagan
The fourth landing of the Columbia is the historical equivalent of the driving of the golden spike which completed the first transcontinental railroad. It marks our entrance into a new era.
Ronald Reagan
Throughout our history Americans have put their faith in God and no one can doubt that we have been blessed for it. The earliest settlers of this land came came in search of religious freedom. Landing on a desolate shoreline, they established a spiritual foundation that has served us ever since.
Ronald Reagan
...100% of what is collected is absorbed solely by interest on the Federal Debt...all individual income tax revenues are gone before one nickel is spent on the services taxpayers expect from government.
Ronald Reagan
And there is the matter of abortion. We must with calmness and resolve help the vast majority of our fellow Americans understand that the more than 112 million abortions performed in America in 1980 amount to a great moral evil, an assault on the sacredness of human life.
Ronald Reagan
The Founding Fathers knew a government can't control the economy without controlling people. And they knew when a government sets out to do that it must use force and coercion to achieve its purpose.
Ronald Reagan
America is to great to dream small dreams.
Ronald Reagan
Baseball is our national pastime, that is if you discount political campaigning.
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
The difference between them and us is that we want to check government spending and they want to spend government checks.
Ronald Reagan
Perhaps no custom reveals our character as a Nation so clearly as our celebration of Thanksgiving Day.
Ronald Reagan
History comes and history goes, but principles endure, and ensure future generations will defend liberty not as a gift from government but as a blessing from our Creator.
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
Government Steals from the needy and gives to the greedy
Ronald Reagan
Now, so there will be no misunderstanding, it's not my intention to do away with government. It is rather to make it work - work with us, not over us to stand by our side, not ride on our back. Government can and must provide opportunity, not smother it foster productivity, not stifle it.
Ronald Reagan
America is, and always will be, a shining city on a hill.
Ronald Reagan
These gentlemen are the moral equivalents of America's founding fathers.
Ronald Reagan
America's economic strength depends on industry's ability to improve productivity and quality and to remain on the cutting edge of technology, and that's why the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award is so important.
Ronald Reagan
We can meet our destiny, and that destiny to build a land here that will be, for all mankind, a shining city on a hill.
Ronald Reagan
