No wonder Americans hate politics when, year in and year out, they hear politicians make promises that won't come true because they don't even mean them - campaign fantasies that win elections but don't get nations moving again

More quotes by William J. Clinton
It depends upon what the meaning of the word 'is' is. If 'is' means 'is and never has been' that's one thing - if it means 'there is none', that was a completely true statement.
William J. Clinton
We live in a completely interdependent world, which simply means we can not escape each other. How we respond to AIDS depends, in part, on whether we understand this interdependence. It is not someone else's problem. This is everybody's problem.
William J. Clinton
When we got organized as a country and we wrote a fairly radical Constitution with a radical Bill of Rights, giving a radical amount of individual freedom to Americans, it was assumed that the Americans who had that freedom would use it responsibly.
William J. Clinton
We cannot build our own future without helping others to build theirs.
William J. Clinton
Every time Bush talks about trust it makes chills run up and down my spine. The way he has trampled on the truth is a travesty of the American political system.
William J. Clinton
Any poll is a picture of an unfinished horse race except the Election Day polls.
William J. Clinton
We are moving people from welfare to work. On welfare, we launch a quiet revolution.
William J. Clinton
I think the Democrats are going to have to be willing to give up, maybe, some short-term political gain by whipping up fears on some of these things - if it's a reasonable Social Security proposal, a reasonable Medicare proposal. We've got to deal with these things. You cannot have health care devour the economy.
William J. Clinton
Life's real victories must be shared.
William J. Clinton
Downsizing budgets may be necessary, but downsizing dreams is a decision to be disappointed.
William J. Clinton
Golf is like life in a lot of ways - All the biggest wounds are self-inflicted.
William J. Clinton
I want to say to you is that James Madison and Thomas Jefferson did not intend to drive a stake in the heart of religion and to drive it out of our public life. What they intended to do was to set up a system so that we could bring religion into our public life and into our private life without any of us telling the other what to do.
William J. Clinton
You have to make a conscious decision to change for your own well-being, and that of your family and your country.
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
Simply put, no society can truly flourish if it stifles the dreams and productivity of half its population. Happily, I see evidence all over the world that women are gaining social and economic power that they never had before. This is good news.
William J. Clinton
President Obama started with a much weaker economy than I did. Listen to me, now. No president - no president, not me, not any of my predecessors, no one could have fully repaired all the damage that he found in just four years.
William J. Clinton
The American people have now spoken, but it's going to take a little while to determine what they've said.
William J. Clinton
We all do better when we work together.
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 established order has too many self-protecting economic entities, and not enough people who yet understand what it takes to change.
