The fights I fought... cost a lot --the fight for the assault-weapons ban cost 20 members their seats in Congress. The NRA is the reason the Republicans control the House.

More quotes by William J. Clinton
I'm just trying to suppress my natural impulses and get back to work.
William J. Clinton
A world without walls is the only sustainable world. . . . If the world is dominated by people who believe that their races, their religions, their ethnic differences are the most important factors, then a huge number of people will perish in this century.
William J. Clinton
Where are the jobs going to come from?Small business, manufacturing and clean energy. Where's the money to finance them? The banks and the corporations in America today have lots of money that they can invest right now.
William J. Clinton
Politics is for people who are too ugly to get into showbusiness.
William J. Clinton
Demand that your government pays more attention. It's immoral that people in Africa die like flies of diseases that no one dies of in the United States. And the more disease there is, the more political unrest there will be, leading to more Darfurs, which the U.S. will have to pay to fix.
William J. Clinton
From New Hampshire forward, for reasons that absolutely mystified me, the press thought the most important issue in the race was the middle class tax cut. I never did meet any voter who thought that.
William J. Clinton
If we want to invest in the prosperity of our nation, we must invest in the education of our children so that their talents may be fully employed.
William J. Clinton
If you think the President was right to open the doors of American opportunity to young immigrants brought here as children who want to go to college or serve in the military, you should vote for Barack Obama.
William J. Clinton
The 22nd Amendment should probably be modified to say two consecutive terms instead of two terms for a lifetime.
William J. Clinton
We cannot become the world's policeman, but where our values and our interests are at stake, and where we can make a difference, we must act and we must lead. That is our job and we are better, stronger and safer because we are doing it.
William J. Clinton
Only the police should have handguns.
William J. Clinton
Any president that lies to the American people should have to resign.
William J. Clinton
There is no longer a clear, bright line dividing America's domestic concerns and America's foreign policy concerns...If we want America to stay on the right track, if we want other people to be on that track and have the chance to enjoy peace and prosperity, we have no choice but to try to lead the train.
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
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
We find as our interdependence increases that, on the whole, we do better when other people do better as well.
William J. Clinton
You have to make a conscious decision to change for your own well-being, and that of your family and your country.
William J. Clinton
Talk to people about what our real choices are... Our way works better... Stick with us, keep talking and think how much better it will be if we keep going forward together.
William J. Clinton
The problem with any ideology is that it gives you the answer before you examine the evidence.
William J. Clinton
Sincerity? I can fake that.
William J. Clinton
