More quotes by William J. Clinton
We've had periods of meanness in American politics. Actually, the dawn of partisan division in America was basically in George Washington's second term, when it was obvious that he would be the first and only consensus president.
William J. Clinton
When we got organized as a country, [and] wrote a fairly radical Constitution, with a radical Bill of Rights, giving radical amounts of freedom to Americans, it was assumed that Americans who had that freedom would use it responsibly...When personal freedom is being abused, you have to move to limit it.
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
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
In our hearts and in our laws, we must treat all our people with fairness and dignity, regardless of their race, religion, gender or sexual orientation. . . .
William J. Clinton
True Excellence requires a worthy dream, a good Idea of how to realize it and the courage to risk failure to achieve it.
William J. Clinton
Sure enough at Oxford, I was another Yank half a step behind.
William J. Clinton
The 22nd Amendment should probably be modified to say two consecutive terms instead of two terms for a lifetime.
William J. Clinton
People like change in general, but not in particular.
William J. Clinton
This will arguably be the third great revolution of America, if we can prove that we literally can live without having a dominant European culture.
William J. Clinton
I challenge every business person in America who has ever complained about the failure of the welfare system to try to hire somebody off welfare. And try hard.
William J. Clinton
It's important that the American people understand that President has proposed and passed this stimulus plan not as the end-all and be-all to our economic woes but as our bridge over troubled water until we get the finance system, the banking system working again.
William J. Clinton
America just works better when more people have a chance to live their dreams.
William J. Clinton
If you want to have a good life you have to have some constructive outlet for your feelings.
William J. Clinton
The Constitution is a radical document... it is the job of the government to rein in people's rights.
William J. Clinton
If you want to be forgiven, you have to extend forgiveness, even to people who aren't smart enough to ask for it.
William J. Clinton
Over the past 7 years, we've tried to modernize the economy, and today what we're doing is modernizing the financial services industry, tearing down these antiquated walls, and granting banks significant new authority.
William J. Clinton
The world has never truly had to develop an ethic of interdependence rooted in our common humanity. And if we do it, the 21st century will be the most interesting, exciting, peaceful era in history.
William J. Clinton
Let's create an integrated global community where we have shared benefits and responsibilities, and we don't fight because of our differences.
William J. Clinton
The great thing about not being president anymore is I can say whatever I want, about anything. Of course [now], nobody really cares what I say. And now I have the worst of all worlds -- my wife has become the secretary of state, so no one really cares what I say -- unless I mess up.
