William J. Clinton
The only preparation for prospering in the global economy is investing in ourselves.
William J. Clinton
If, two people have good minds and they're looking at problems, if they agree all the time it means one of them is not thinking. If they disagree all the time, it means one of them is not thinking. They're just allowing their political position to dictate their position on an issue. And I think that's unhealthy. And the public knows better.
William J. Clinton
The simple fact is that we must not-and we will not-surrender our borders to those who wish to exploit our history of compassion and justice.
William J. Clinton
Simply put, unsustainable debt is helping to keep too many poor countries and poor people in poverty.

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
I personally don't believe we ought to be raising taxes or cutting spending, either one, until we get this economy off the ground. I'll pay more, but it won't solve the problem.
William J. Clinton
The seven principles of Kwanzaa - unity, self-determinat ion, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity and faith -- teach us that when we come together to strengthen our families and communities and honor the lesson of the past, we can face the future with joy and optimism.
William J. Clinton
There's never a perfect bipartisan bill in the eyes of a partisan.

When it comes to anything that's social, whether it's your family, your school, your community, your business or your country, winning is a team sport.
William J. Clinton
We live to prove that cooperation works better than conflict.
William J. Clinton
I knew from the minute I saw her (Hillary) that if I got involved with her I would fall in love with her.
William J. Clinton
I want the ability to monitor high-tech communications among far-flung terrorists. I want to be able to have our people learn their plans before they strike. That's the key.
William J. Clinton
Yesterday is yesterday. If we try to recapture it, we will only lose tomorrow.
William J. Clinton
The fights I fought... cost a lot --the fight for the assault-weapons ban cost 20 members their seats in Congress. The NRA is the reason the Republicans control the House.
William J. Clinton
Sometimes I feel like the fire hydrant looking at a pack of dogs.
William J. Clinton
The most profound security threat we face today is global warming....climate change has the capacity to change the way all of us live.
William J. Clinton
I want to talk about one barrier that has not been broken. I want you to support Hillary [Clinton] for me, too, because I want to break a ceiling. I am tired of the stranglehold that women have had on the job of presidential spouse.
William J. Clinton
The secret to living a full life with no regrets and to staying young is to figure out what you believe in and fight for it. If you lose, don't give up. If you win, raise the bar, and then rare back and do something else. And remember that, with the accumulation of years, our responsibilities to the future grow greater, not less.
