More quotes by William J. Clinton
The most important question of the 21st century is not what or how much, it is 'How?' How do you propose to turn your good ideas into positive changes in other people's lives? You must be the 'how generation.'
William J. Clinton
So much of modern politics is focused not on honest differences of policy but on personal attacks.
William J. Clinton
You can't blame the administration and the Republicans for taking us back to deficits, for spending the Social Security surplus and assaulting the environment. That's what they promised to do in the last election.
William J. Clinton
Our paradigm now seems to be: Something terrible happened to us on September 11, and that gives us the right to interpret all future events in a way that everyone else in the world must agree with us. And if they don't, they can go straight to hell.
William J. Clinton
When I was in office I expressed admiration and respect and even affection for Republicans that I knew and liked and cared about, and I tried to find ways to work with them. I think the Democrats should do that, and just keep trying to lower the temperature.
William J. Clinton
American and Israel share a special bond. Our relationship is unique among all nations. Like America, Israel is a strong democracy, a symbol of freedom, and an oasis of liberty, a home to the oppressed and persecuted.
William J. Clinton
You don't have to wait till your party's in power to have an impact on life at home and around the world.
William J. Clinton

William J. Clinton
When I started out in public life there used to be a saying we'd hear from time to time, that every man who runs for public office will claim that he was born in a log cabin he built with his own hands. Well, my mother knew better. And she made sure I did too.
William J. Clinton
I believe that this country's policies should be heavily biased in favor of nondiscrimination.
William J. Clinton
The purpose of government is to rein in the rights of the people.
William J. Clinton
Sometimes I feel like the fire hydrant looking at a pack of dogs.
William J. Clinton
The problem with any ideology is that it gives you the answer before you examine the evidence.
William J. Clinton
Literacy is not a luxury, it is a right and a responsibility. If our world is to meet the challenges of the twenty-first century we must harness the energy and creativity of all our citizens.
William J. Clinton
Only a fool does not look to explain his mistakes.
William J. Clinton
What works in the real world is cooperation.
William J. Clinton
You live in a country that makes it harder to raise children than any other country in the world. You vote for me and I'll give you family values.
William J. Clinton
