More quotes by William J. Clinton
Our military superiority is so great - it's far greater than it was in the Gulf War, and the Gulf War was over in 100 hours after we bombed for 43 days. And so now they can bomb for a couple of days and then just roll into Baghdad... The odds are there's going to be a war and it's going to be not for very long.
William J. Clinton
Just because we cannot do everything for everyone does not mean we should do nothing for anyone.
William J. Clinton
As we have throughout this century, we will lead with the power of our example, but be prepared, when necessary, to make an example of our power.
William J. Clinton
In a fundamental sense, this debate about NAFTA is a debate about whether we will embrace these changes and create the jobs of tomorrow, or try to resist these changes, hoping we can preserve the economic structures of yesterday.
William J. Clinton
[Alternative energy] will make us less dependent on foreign oil. It would make us more secure in our future. It would mean that our foreign policy could be a reflection of our values and our other interests, and not just that.
William J. Clinton
Our democracy must be not only the envy of the world but the engine of our own renewal. There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured by what is right with America.
William J. Clinton
I'm just trying to suppress my natural impulses and get back to work.
William J. Clinton
I believe I'm a better authority than anybody else in America on my own wife. I have never known a person with a stronger sense of right and wrong in my life ever.
William J. Clinton
It takes a long time to turn a big country around. Just be of good cheer and keep working on it.
William J. Clinton
Yesterday is yesterday. If we try to recapture it, we will only lose tomorrow.
William J. Clinton
We are on the right track to the 21st century. We are on the right track, but our work is not finished. What should we do? First, let us consider how to proceed. I say the question is no longer, Who's to blame? but What to do?
William J. Clinton
People should really take care when they vote, and pay more attention to what people say they're going to do - instead of just how they feel about how things are going.
William J. Clinton
I think actually that the speech work I do is fine. It's important, because I try to help people think about what's going on and organize their lives accordingly.
William J. Clinton
He was a martyr of peace but was the victim of hate. If people can't let go of the hatred of their enemies they risk sowing the seeds of hate among themselves.
William J. Clinton
No one who has lived through the second half of the 20th century could possibly be blind to the enormous impact of exchange programs on the future of countries.
William J. Clinton
I love the HRC. The initials are great.
William J. Clinton
When times are tough and people are frustrated and angry and hurting and uncertain, the politics of constant conflict may be good. But what is good politics does not necessarily work in the real world. What works in the real world is cooperation.
William J. Clinton
From the small clubs of the Harlem Renaissance where he began playing saxophone to world tours for the biggest of the big bands, Benny Carter redefined American jazz. From the start, his fellow musicians said the way he played the sax was amazing. They say that about me, too. (Laughter.) But I don't think they mean it in quite the same way.
William J. Clinton
You can put wings on a pig, but you don't make it an eagle.
William J. Clinton
I think what breaks people is not adversity what breaks people is thinking that tomorrow is going to be just like yesterday. That's what's numbing - if you think you can't change, you can't be better. And I didn't like that.
William J. Clinton
