What works in the real world is cooperation.
William J. Clinton
The good news is you can get a lot of information off the Internet for free and in a hurry. But I think the breaking up of the media, which is otherwise kind of healthy, has contributed to less actual reporting and a louder, more contentious, more divisive public discourse, highlighting conflict, sometimes falsely.
William J. Clinton
No generation has had the opportunity, as we now have, to build a global economy that leaves no-one behind. It is a wonderful opportunity, but also a profound responsibility.
William J. Clinton
There is no example on the planet of a successful economy with broadly shared prosperity and a shrinking, weak government.

William J. Clinton
I still believe in a place called Hope.
William J. Clinton
Work organizes life. It gives structure and discipline to life.
William J. Clinton
Profound and powerful forces are shaking and remaking our world. And the urgent question of our time is whether we can make change our friend and not our enemy.
William J. Clinton
Without a high pain threshold, you can't be a successful President.
William J. Clinton
Frankly, I'm fed up with politicians in Washington lecturing the rest of us about family values. Our families have values. But our government doesn't.
William J. Clinton
We should make it a crime even to attempt to pollute. Our children should grow up next to parks, not poison.
William J. Clinton
Democracies don't go to war against each other, and by and large they don't sponsor terrorism. They're more likely to respect the environment and human rights and social justice. It's no accident that most of the terrorists come from non-democratic countries.
