More quotes by 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
Sharing in God's blessings is at the heart of Thanksgiving and at the core of the American spirit.
William J. Clinton
You know, I've always been really interested in this stuff, and I'm going to read this.

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
If you believe in the values of the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the Declaration of Independence, if you're willing to work hard and play by the rules, you are part of our family. And we're proud to be with you.
William J. Clinton
Just because we cannot do everything for everyone does not mean we should do nothing for anyone.
William J. Clinton
Our military superiority is so great - it's far greater than it was in the Gulf War, and the Gulf War was over in 100 hours after we bombed for 43 days. And so now they can bomb for a couple of days and then just roll into Baghdad... The odds are there's going to be a war and it's going to be not for very long.
William J. Clinton
When personal freedom's being abused, you have to move to limit it.
William J. Clinton
We are moving people from welfare to work. On welfare, we launch a quiet revolution.
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
I mean, if President Reagan could be an actor and become a President, if Michael Douglas is your next choice, maybe I could become an actor. And I've got a good pension I can work cheap, which is unusual around here.
William J. Clinton
When people think, Democrats win.
William J. Clinton
An innocent bureaucratic snafu.
William J. Clinton
$100,000 donors buy access to Congress and the White House. We believe it's long past time to clean up Washington.
William J. Clinton
I try to be self-analytical, both to outline the mistakes I made in my life and try to explain why I did, and the things that on balance I did pretty well on.
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
Simply put, unsustainable debt is helping to keep too many poor countries and poor people in poverty.
William J. Clinton
Success is not the measure of a man but a triumph over those who choose to hold him back.
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
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
