More quotes by William J. Clinton
We're not talking about a few rooms here with delicate personal matters involved.
William J. Clinton
When we got organized as a country, [and] wrote a fairly radical Constitution, with a radical Bill of Rights, giving radical amounts of freedom to Americans, it was assumed that Americans who had that freedom would use it responsibly...When personal freedom is being abused, you have to move to limit it.
William J. Clinton
From Bill Clinton speech- People are more impressed by the power of our example rather than the example of our power.
William J. Clinton
Rarely have Americans lived through so much change, in so many ways, in so short a time. Quietly, but with gathering force, the ground has shifted beneath our feet as we have moved into an Information Age, a global economy, a truly new world.
William J. Clinton
We are a nation of immigrants. But we are also a nation of laws. It is wrong and ultimately self-defeating for a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of our immigration laws we have seen in recent years, and we must do more to stop it.
William J. Clinton
I have said many times-if I hadn't been exposed to music as a child I don't think I would have been president.
William J. Clinton
I personally don't believe we ought to be raising taxes or cutting spending, either one, until we get this economy off the ground. I'll pay more, but it won't solve the problem.
William J. Clinton
When I think about the world I would like to leave to my daughter and the grandchildren I hope to have, it is a world that moves away from unequal, unstable, unsustainable interdependence to integrated communities - locally, nationally and globally - that share the characteristics of all successful communities.
William J. Clinton
When you stifle human potential, when you don't invest in new ideas, it doesn't just cut off the people who are affected it hurts us all.
William J. Clinton
If we disagree and I think I'm right, I just go ahead and do what I think is right. And then she tells me, 'I told you so.'
William J. Clinton
I have never seen . . . so slippery, so disgusting a candidate.
William J. Clinton
I was not elected to produce a pile of vetoes.
William J. Clinton
Forget what you may have heard about a digital divide or worries that the world is splintering into 'info haves' and 'info have-nots.' The fact is, technology fosters equality, and it's often the relatively cheap and mundane devices that do the most good.
William J. Clinton
I have always believed that the decision to have an abortion generally should be between a woman, her doctor, her conscience, and her God.
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
A lot of presidential memoirs, they say, are dull and self-serving. I hope mine is interesting and self-serving.
William J. Clinton
What we should be doing [in US] is accelerating every year our efforts to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions, have a cleaner energy future, have much more energy conservation. And this won't hurt anybody. This will create a new economy for America, if we've got the discipline to do it.
William J. Clinton
Technology really has turned out to be a wonderful thing. . . . So Americans really are tuning in in positive ways on the Internet.
William J. Clinton
North Koreans are irrational to some extent, but I don't think they're totally irrational. I think they watch American cable channels. I think they watch the European cable channels. I think they, their decision makers keep up more than we know. And I think they want us to think they're a little crazy.
William J. Clinton
The price of doing the same old thing is far higher than the price of change.
William J. Clinton
