More quotes by William J. Clinton
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
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
In the new economy, information, education, and motivation are everything.
William J. Clinton
Only a fool does not look to explain his mistakes.
William J. Clinton
The greatest progress we have made, and the greatest progress we have yet to make, is in the human heart. In the end, all the world's wealth and a thousand armies are no match for the strength and decency of the human spirit.
William J. Clinton
If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program.
William J. Clinton
Golf is like life in a lot of ways - All the biggest wounds are self-inflicted.
William J. Clinton
The good news is you can get a lot of information off the Internet for free and in a hurry. But I think the breaking up of the media, which is otherwise kind of healthy, has contributed to less actual reporting and a louder, more contentious, more divisive public discourse, highlighting conflict, sometimes falsely.
William J. Clinton
When times are tough and people are frustrated and angry and hurting and uncertain, the politics of constant conflict may be good. But what is good politics does not necessarily work in the real world. What works in the real world is cooperation.
William J. Clinton
Sometimes when people are under stress, they hate to think, and it's the time when they most need to think.
William J. Clinton
Government is not the problem, and government is not the solution. We - the American people - we are the solution.
William J. Clinton
The ideals that bind us together are as old as our nation, but so are the forces that pull us apart.
William J. Clinton
Supporters of capital punishment bear a special responsibility to ensure the fairness of this irreversible punishment.
William J. Clinton
Thomas Jefferson believed that to preserve the very foundations of our Nation, we would need dramatic change from time to time. Well, my fellow Americans, this is our time. Let us embrace it.
William J. Clinton
It depends upon what the meaning of the word 'is' is.
William J. Clinton
If you live long enough, you'll make mistakes. But if you learn from them, you'll be a better person. It's how you handle adversity, not how it affects you. The main thing is never quit, never quit, never quit.
William J. Clinton
I refuse to be part of a generation that celebrates the death of communism abroad with the loss of the American dream at home.
William J. Clinton
There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured with what is right in America.
William J. Clinton
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.
William J. Clinton
The economy has produced 6.1 million jobs since I became president, and if Michael Jordan comes back to the Bulls, it will be 6,100,001 jobs.
