Globalisation is not something that we can hold off or turn off. It is the economic equivalent of a force of nature, like wind or water.

More quotes by William J. Clinton
Strength and wisdom are not opposing values.
William J. Clinton
You know, by the time you become the leader of a country, someone else makes all the decisions. ... You may find you can get away with virtual presidents, virtual prime ministers, virtual everything.
William J. Clinton
The Reagan-Bush years have exalted private gain over public obligation, special interests over the common good, wealth and fame over work and family. The 1980s ushered in a Gilded Age of greed and selfishness, of irresponsibility and excess, and of neglect.
William J. Clinton
I have news for the forces of greed and the defenders of the status quo: your time has come - and gone. It's time for change in America.
William J. Clinton
Life is a journey towards truth, we have something to learn from each other, and everybody ought to have a chance to make the journey. So for us, a community is just made up of anybody who accepts the rules of the game, everybody counts, everybody has a role to play, everybody deserves a chance and we all do better when we work together
William J. Clinton
We have to change the whole job structure of America. We have got to basically reorient our economy toward the future.
William J. Clinton
I believe we can do much more to adapt to the structural changes in the global economy, get high-end manufacturing back here, set up clusters of economic activity where you have, among other things, continuous retraining of people well into their middle years so they never become irrelevant to the current job market.
William J. Clinton
Our generation, like the one before us, must choose. Without the threat of the Cold War, without the pain of economic ruin, without the fresh memory of World War II's slaughter, it is tempting to pursue our private agendas -- to simply sit back and let history unfold. We must resist the temptation.
William J. Clinton
Just because you can't do everything, it doesn't mean you shouldn't do what you can.
William J. Clinton
I had some words with my wife, and she had some paragraphs with me.
William J. Clinton
I misled people, including even my wife.
William J. Clinton
I am in support of the NRA position on gun control.
William J. Clinton
The new rage is to say that the government is the cause of all our problems, and if only we had no government, we'd have no problems. I can tell you, that contradicts evidence, history, and common sense.
William J. Clinton
I might not have been President if it hadn't been for school music. Learning improves in school environments where there are comprehensive music programs.
William J. Clinton
I was not elected to produce a pile of vetoes.
William J. Clinton
The only preparation for prospering in the global economy is investing in ourselves.
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
Noting his mother's visit to Las Vegas the weekend before she died. She got to go to heaven four days early.
William J. Clinton
We need a spirit of community, a sense that we are all in this together. If we have no sense of community, the American dream will wither.
William J. Clinton
The problem with ideology is if you got an ideology, you already got your mind made up, you know all the answers, and that makes evidence irrelevant and argument a waste of time, so you tend to govern by assertion and attack. The problem with that is that discourages thinking and gives you bad results.
William J. Clinton
