If you come from a wealthy country with open borders, unless you seriously believe you can kill, imprison or occupy all your enemies, you have to make a world with more friends and fewer enemies - with more partners and fewer terrorists.
William J. Clinton
I hate it when people blame someone else and don't take responsibility.
William J. Clinton
We've had periods of meanness in American politics. Actually, the dawn of partisan division in America was basically in George Washington's second term, when it was obvious that he would be the first and only consensus president.
William J. Clinton
We're going to build the bridge to the 21st century, we have to make our children free - free of the vise grip of guns and gangs and drugs free to build lives of hope.

William J. Clinton
When I think about the world I would like to leave to my daughter and the grandchildren I hope to have, it is a world that moves away from unequal, unstable, unsustainable interdependence to integrated communities - locally, nationally and globally - that share the characteristics of all successful communities.
William J. Clinton
We simply have to transition from an economy based almost exclusively on oil and coal and natural gas to one that's far more diversified, that uses solar energy, and wind energy, and the power of the tides, and bio-mass energy, and eventually, develops hydrogen.
William J. Clinton
If you want to live like a Republican, vote like a Democrat.
William J. Clinton
More people can be great leaders than think they can, but they need a purpose greater than themselves.
William J. Clinton
The other thing we have to do is to take seriously the role in this problem of . . . older men who prey on underage women. . . . There are consequences to decisions and . . . one way or the other, people always wind up being held accountable.
William J. Clinton
Sometimes when people are under stress, they hate to think, and it's the time when they most need to think.
William J. Clinton
I think the country could be spared a lot of agony and the government could worry about inflation and a lot of other problems if [Nixon would] go on and resign. [There is] no question that an admission of making false statements to government officials and interfering with the FBI and the CIA is an impeachable offense.
William J. Clinton
Politics is for people who are too ugly to get into showbusiness.
William J. Clinton
I have never had sex with that woman, Hillary Clinton.
William J. Clinton
You can't blame the administration and the Republicans for taking us back to deficits, for spending the Social Security surplus and assaulting the environment. That's what they promised to do in the last election.
William J. Clinton
I believe that those who promote discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or any other grounds are gravely mistaken about the values that make our nation strong. I will continue to move my administration in the direction of compassion, acceptance, and understanding.
William J. Clinton
