More quotes by William J. Clinton
A preemptive action today, however well-justified, may come back with unwelcome consequences in the future. And because... I've done this. I've ordered these kinds of actions - I don't care how precise your bombs and your weapons are, when you set them off, innocent people will die.
William J. Clinton
By the time you become the leader of a country, someone else makes all the decisions.
William J. Clinton
A parent may be without a job, but no child should be without a doctor.
William J. Clinton
When we make college more affordable, we make the American dream more achievable.
William J. Clinton
Whether our ancestors came here on the Mayflower, on slave ships, whether they came to Ellis Island or LAX in Los Angeles, whether they came yesterday or walked this land a thousand years ago our great challenge for the 21st century is to find a way to be One America. We can meet all the other challenges if we can go forward as One America.
William J. Clinton
I'm proud to say that there is not a single Russian nuclear missile pointed at an American child.
William J. Clinton
In general I saw my job as the first president whose full term would be served after the Cold War in a global information society where we were interdependent but not integrated. And therefore, we were vulnerable to the worst, and able to seize the best, of what's going on in the 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
Our paradigm now seems to be: Something terrible happened to us on September 11, and that gives us the right to interpret all future events in a way that everyone else in the world must agree with us. And if they don't, they can go straight to hell.
William J. Clinton
The pressure of the [election] campaign has a wonderful way of revealing your strengths and weaknesses.
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
Sincerity? I can fake that.
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
...Nixon's subversion [of the consititution] consisted of: One presidental lie one invocation of presidental privilege, and zero criminal offences.
William J. Clinton
I refuse to be part of a generation that celebrates the death of communism abroad with the loss of the American dream at home.
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
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
I will tell you this: I will not raise taxes on the middle-class to pay for these programs.
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
I am in support of the NRA position on gun control.
William J. Clinton
