More quotes by William J. Clinton
President Obama is going to have to run against himself. In tough times, nobody can defeat himself.
William J. Clinton
Remember, Republican economic policies quadrupled the debt before I took office and doubled it after I left. We simply can't afford to double-down on trickle-down.
William J. Clinton
That everybody can do something, without regard to how old or young they are, rich or poor or middle class they are, how busy or not busy they are and what level skills they have. Everyone can do something. And everybody should do something. ... And if you do it, you'll be happier.
William J. Clinton
What we believe in is what works.
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
Over time, the more we bring China into the world, the more the world will bring freedom to China.
William J. Clinton
I do not believe we can repair the basic fabric of society until people who are willing to work have work. Work organizes life. It gives structure and discipline to life.
William J. Clinton
I think if the White House or the President want to say anything about our conversations or anything I tried to do to help our country with their support or at their request, then I think they should be the ones to do that. But I think that former presidents should do that.
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
The earth is warming at an alarming rate, we are running out of fossil fuels, and it is long past time for us to take action to correct these problems.
William J. Clinton
The American people have now spoken, but it's going to take a little while to determine what they've said.
William J. Clinton
The United States should.... avoid unilateral export controls and controls on technology widely available in world markets. Unilateral controls penalize U.S. exporters without advancing U.S. national security or foreign policy interests.
William J. Clinton
Being president is like running a cemetery: you've got a lot of people under you and nobody's listening.
William J. Clinton
I take full responsability...for what we did. It was the right thing to do.
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
A significant number of petroleum geologists believe that we will reach the global maximum of petroleum extraction within this decade or that we have already reached it. Peak Oil happened in 1970 in America, when over half of our oil that we gained from the soil was exhausted ... This is very disturbing, regardless of global warming.
William J. Clinton
There's nothing wrong with making mistakes. Just don't respond with encores.
William J. Clinton
When you're president, you have more power to help more people, but you also are the prisoner of circumstances as well, and countervailing political forces more.
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
Every time Bush talks about trust it makes chills run up and down my spine. The way he has trampled on the truth is a travesty of the American political system.
