More quotes by William J. Clinton
We will stand mighty for peace and freedom and maintain a strong defense against terror and destruction. Our children will sleep free from the threat of nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons.
William J. Clinton
An innocent bureaucratic snafu.
William J. Clinton
The community of nations may see more and more of the very kind of threat Iraq poses now: a rogue state with weapons of mass destruction, ready to use them or provide them to terrorists. If we fail to respond today, Saddam and all those who would follow in his footsteps will be emboldened tomorrow.
William J. Clinton
...the fact [is] that our borders leak like a sieve: those things cannot be permitted to continue in good conscience.
William J. Clinton
Considering the current sad state of our computer programs, software development is clearly still a black art, and cannot yet be called an engineering discipline.
William J. Clinton
During the sole argument we had when [Chelsea] was in high school, the subject of which I don't even remember, I looked at her and said, 'As long as you're in this house, being president is my second most important job'.
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
If you voluntarily quit in the face of adversity, you'll wonder about it for the rest of your life.
William J. Clinton
I have never seen . . . so slippery, so disgusting a candidate.
William J. Clinton
In our efforts to battle terrorism and cyber attacks and biological weapons, all of us must be extremely aggressive. We must protect our people from danger and keep America safe and free.
William J. Clinton
There is no example on the planet of a successful economy with broadly shared prosperity and a shrinking, weak government.
William J. Clinton
When you're president, you learn to act like you know what you're talking about. And it's a great skill.
William J. Clinton
Palestinians are a hard-working and an incredible community. They have done remarkably well outside their country. I have never met a poor Palestinian in the United States every Palestinian I know is a college professor or a doctor.
William J. Clinton
Literacy is not a luxury, it is a right and a responsibility.
William J. Clinton
If you look back at the 1960's in the United States, and if you think that more good was done than harm, you are probably a Democrat. If you think that more harm was done than good, then you're probably a Republican.
William J. Clinton
When I started out in public life there used to be a saying we'd hear from time to time, that every man who runs for public office will claim that he was born in a log cabin he built with his own hands. Well, my mother knew better. And she made sure I did too.
William J. Clinton
Because primarily of the power of the Internet, people of modest means can band together and amass vast sums of money that can change the world for some public good if they all agree.
William J. Clinton
It simply doesn't make any sense for us to have illegal aliens in our custody in our courts and then let them go back to living here illegally. That's wrong and we should stop it.
William J. Clinton
Citizen service is the very American idea that we meet our challenges not as isolated individuals but as members of a true community, with all of us working together. Our mission is nothing less than to spark a renewed sense of obligation, a new sense of duty, a new season of service.
William J. Clinton
We should stay on the right track to the 21st century. Opportunity alone is not enough. I want to build an America in the 21st century in which all Americans take personal responsibility for themselves, their families, their communities and their country.
William J. Clinton
