More quotes by William J. Clinton
You need to know that a member of Congress who refuses to allow the minimum wage to come up for a vote made more money during last year's one-month government shutdown than a minimum wage worker makes in an entire year.
William J. Clinton
Demand that your government pays more attention. It's immoral that people in Africa die like flies of diseases that no one dies of in the United States. And the more disease there is, the more political unrest there will be, leading to more Darfurs, which the U.S. will have to pay to fix.
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
I never thought of political endeavors primarily in terms of power and prestige, and I never thought of economic endeavors primarily in terms of wealth and position.
William J. Clinton
There are always going to be people who want to be president, and some days I'd like to give it to them.
William J. Clinton
Without question, bicycling is an efficient, economical and environmentally sound form of transportation and recreation. Bicycling is a great activity for families, recreational riders and commuters. Hillary, Chelsea and I have bicycles.
William J. Clinton
I think that the responsibility that the Democrats had may rest more in resisting any efforts by Republicans in the Congress, or by me when I was President, to put some standards and tighten up a little on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
William J. Clinton
I don't know in my long life that I ever worked with anybody that has quite the combination of policy knowledge and concern, political skills, of a personal touch with people, and a sense of innate fairness that inspires confidence.
William J. Clinton
Sometimes I feel like the fire hydrant looking at a pack of dogs.
William J. Clinton
Behind every great man there stands a great woman. Behind every great woman is a great behind.
William J. Clinton
Constant conflict is actually often good politics. Because the more you can inflame your supporters the more likely they are to show up at election day. And if they're more inflamed than the other side, even if the other side has more people agreeing with it, you'll win, because your crowd will show up.
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
[Americans know] the traditional values of Islam, devotion to faith and good works, to family and society, are in harmony with the best of American ideals.
William J. Clinton
We're going to build the bridge to the 21st century, we have to make our children free - free of the vise grip of guns and gangs and drugs free to build lives of hope.
William J. Clinton
There is no longer a clear, bright line dividing America's domestic concerns and America's foreign policy concerns...If we want America to stay on the right track, if we want other people to be on that track and have the chance to enjoy peace and prosperity, we have no choice but to try to lead the train.
William J. Clinton
AIDS is no longer a death sentence for those who can get the medicines. Now it's up to the politicians to create the comprehensive strategies to better treat the disease.
William J. Clinton
Downsizing budgets may be necessary, but downsizing dreams is a decision to be disappointed.
William J. Clinton
No problem of human making is too great to be overcome by human ingenuity, human energy, and the untiring hope of the human spirit.
William J. Clinton
The struggle for your own character is the struggle for the nation's character.
William J. Clinton
And I'd like to say to the Senate, I hope you will say yes to a stronger American democracy in the year 2000.
William J. Clinton
