More quotes by William J. Clinton
We must say no to illegal immigration so we can continue to say yes to legal immigration.
William J. Clinton
The more children see of violence, the more numb they are to the deadly consequences of violence. Now, video games like 'Mortal Kombat,' 'Killer Instinct,' and 'Doom,' the very game played obsessively by the two young men who ended so many lives in Littleton, make our children more active participants in simulated violence.
William J. Clinton
I support lowering the level of legal immigration by a moderate amount at this time. Legal immigration reform must be based upon principles that are pro-family, pro-work, and pro-naturalization, retaining opportunities for family reunification as the levels are lowered. We must not let this issue become divisive in this country.
William J. Clinton
America can no longer afford to get the Nobel Prizes while our competitors get the profits.
William J. Clinton
I think just about everybody ought to get a second chance and I'd like to see it worked out, because he (Pete Rose) brought a lot of joy to the game, and he gave a lot of joy to people, and he's paid a price - God knows, he's paid a price.
William J. Clinton
I mean, you know, this idea that somebody we disagree with on economic or social policy or something we have to turn into some kind of ogre or demon, I think, is a mistake. I mean, it's like telling the American people or half the American people that don't agree with you they're all fools. That's just not true.
William J. Clinton
You know the one thing that's wrong with this country? Everyone gets a chance to have their fair say.
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.
William J. Clinton
Citizenship in the 21st century requires more than paying your taxes and voting and occasionally running for office. That even if you're never in political office, you have political responsibilities. You can make your society stronger and better.
William J. Clinton
The Reagan-Bush years have exalted private gain over public obligation, special interests over the common good, wealth and fame over work and family. The 1980s ushered in a Gilded Age of greed and selfishness, of irresponsibility and excess, and of neglect.
William J. Clinton
Progress changes consciousness, and when people's consciousness changes, then their awareness of what is possible changes as well - a virtuous circle.
William J. Clinton
We must fortify African democracy and peace by launching Radio Democracy for Africa, supporting the transition to democracy now beginning to take place in Nigeria.

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
We live in a completely interdependent world, which simply means we can not escape each other. How we respond to AIDS depends, in part, on whether we understand this interdependence. It is not someone else's problem. This is everybody's problem.
William J. Clinton
We can't renew America unless more of us, I mean all of us, are willing to join churches.
William J. Clinton
Let us all take more responsibility not only for ourselves and our families but for our communities and our country.
William J. Clinton
I misled people, including even my wife.
William J. Clinton
We simply have to transition from an economy based almost exclusively on oil and coal and natural gas to one that's far more diversified, that uses solar energy, and wind energy, and the power of the tides, and bio-mass energy, and eventually, develops hydrogen.
William J. Clinton
Almost makes you want to go to jail out here, doesn't it?
William J. Clinton
