More quotes by 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
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
We have no intention of abandoning the American people to unproven theories and extreme positions. We're the people party and we're going to stick up for the people.
William J. Clinton
Just because you can't do everything, it doesn't mean you shouldn't do what you can.
William J. Clinton
We should not let our response to the people who disagree with us be dictated by what they say about us or even how they treat people we care for. There has to be a chance that we can find love.
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
When some Republican governors asked to try new ways to put people on welfare back to work, the Obama Administration said they would only do it if they had a credible plan to increase employment by 20%. You hear that? More work. So the claim that President Obama weakened welfare reform's work requirement is just not true.
William J. Clinton
No generation has had the opportunity, as we now have, to build a global economy that leaves no-one behind. It is a wonderful opportunity, but also a profound responsibility.
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
We will lower the tax burden on middle class Americans by asking the very wealthy to pay their fair share. Middle class taxpayers will have a choice between a children's tax credit or a significant reduction in their income tax rate.
William J. Clinton
From the small clubs of the Harlem Renaissance where he began playing saxophone to world tours for the biggest of the big bands, Benny Carter redefined American jazz. From the start, his fellow musicians said the way he played the sax was amazing. They say that about me, too. (Laughter.) But I don't think they mean it in quite the same way.
William J. Clinton
We are a people of faith. We have been so secure in that faith that we have enshrined in our Constitution protection for people who profess no faith. And good for us for doing so. That is what the First Amendment is all about.
William J. Clinton
Mental illness is nothing to be ashamed of, but stigma and bias shame us all.
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
He was a martyr of peace but was the victim of hate. If people can't let go of the hatred of their enemies they risk sowing the seeds of hate among themselves.
William J. Clinton
Millions of people of color still experience racism daily.
William J. Clinton
When we make college more affordable, we make the American dream more achievable.
William J. Clinton
In addition I had real and serious questions about an independent counsel investigation that began with private business dealings twenty years ago
William J. Clinton
The simple fact is that we must not-and we will not-surrender our borders to those who wish to exploit our history of compassion and justice.
William J. Clinton
A few years back, this guy [Barack Obama] would be serving us coffee.
William J. Clinton
