I will tell you this: I will not raise taxes on the middle-class to pay for these programs.
William J. Clinton
Being President is a little like being the grounds-keeper at a cemetery: there's plenty of people below you but no one's listening.
William J. Clinton
Terrorists are as big a threat to our future, perhaps bigger, than organized crime.
William J. Clinton
Just because we cannot do everything for everyone does not mean we should do nothing for anyone.
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
Life's real victories must be shared.
William J. Clinton
Taxing less and spending more.. it's fun in the short run, but it's a recipe for disaster.
William J. Clinton
A significant number of petroleum geologists believe that we will reach the global maximum of petroleum extraction within this decade or that we have already reached it. Peak Oil happened in 1970 in America, when over half of our oil that we gained from the soil was exhausted ... This is very disturbing, regardless of global warming.
William J. Clinton
Even as people take pride in their national independence, we know we are becoming more and more interdependent.
William J. Clinton
When we give what we can, and give it with joy, we don't just renew the American tradition of giving, we also renew ourselves.
William J. Clinton
I refuse to be part of a generation that celebrates the death of communism abroad with the loss of the American dream at home.
William J. Clinton
I got a letter from 13-year-old Ryan from Belfast. Now, Ryan, if you're out in the crowd tonight, here's the answer to your question. No, as far as I know, an alien spacecraft did not crash in Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947. And, Ryan, if the United States Air Force did recover alien bodies, they didn't tell me about it, either, and I want to know.
William J. Clinton
The problem with any ideology is that it gives you the answer before you examine the evidence.
William J. Clinton
I recently spoke with Barbara Jordan of the U.S. Commission on Immigration Reform, and I increasingly believe we need a system to verify employment eligibility. The Commission's recommendation of a national registry may be the way to go.
William J. Clinton
Democracy does not have to be a bloodsport, it can be an honorable enterprise that advances the public interest.
William J. Clinton
We are a people of faith. We have been so secure in that faith that we have enshrined in our Constitution protection for people who profess no faith. And good for us for doing so. That is what the First Amendment is all about.
William J. Clinton
Learning improves in school environments where there are comprehensive music and arts programs. They increase the ability of young people to do math. They increase the ability of young people to read. And most important of all, they're a lot of fun.
William J. Clinton
We still have too many Americans who give in to their fears of those who are different from them. Not so long ago, swastikas were painted on the doors of some African-American members of our Special Forces at Ft. Bragg. They are special forces. They do not deserve to have swastikas on their doors.
William J. Clinton
