The first thing I had to start with was, you know, we don't have a war. We don't have a depression, we don't have a Cold War.

More quotes by William J. Clinton
She got to go to heaven four days early.
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
I love and revere the rich and proud history of America. And I am determined to take our best traditions into the future. But with all respect, we do not need to build a bridge to the past. We need to build a bridge to the future.
William J. Clinton
Posterity is the world to come the world for whom we hold our ideals, from whom we have borrowed our planet, and to whom we bear sacred responsibility. We must do what America does best: offer more opportunity to all and demand responsibility from all.
William J. Clinton
A lot of presidential memoirs, they say, are dull and self-serving. I hope mine is interesting and self-serving.
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
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
Literacy is not a luxury, it is a right and a responsibility. If our world is to meet the challenges of the twenty-first century we must harness the energy and creativity of all our citizens.
William J. Clinton
What we believe in is what works.
William J. Clinton
Everybody counts, everybody deserves a chance, everybody has a responsible role to play and we all do better when we work together.
William J. Clinton
We have the most religious freedom of any country in the world, including the freedom not to believe.
William J. Clinton
As we have throughout this century, we will lead with the power of our example, but be prepared, when necessary, to make an example of our power.
William J. Clinton
California has become the first American state where there is no majority race, and we're doing just fine. If you look around the room, you can see a microcosm of what we can do in the world. . . . You should be hopeful on balance about the future. But it's like any future since the beginning of time -- you're going to have to make it.
William J. Clinton
There are two kinds of people in the world. Those who have seen the Taj Mahal and love it and those who have not seen the Taj and love it.
William J. Clinton
We need to help younger people recognize their own capacity to do good, and help them discover the rewards of generosity.
William J. Clinton
You cannot have an integrated world and have your say all the time. America can lead the world towards that, but we cannot dominate and run the world in that direction. There is a big difference.
William J. Clinton
It's only in America where there seems to be this sort of systematic denial of the reality of global warming at the governmental level, and in too many sectors of the high, the private sector. But it looks to me the business community may actually lead us toward a clean energy future almost in spite of government policy.
William J. Clinton
Profound and powerful forces are shaking and remaking our world. And the urgent question of our time is whether we can make change our friend and not our enemy.
William J. Clinton
Global poverty is a powder keg that could be ignited by our indifference.
William J. Clinton
Our country [America] is still the strongest force for peace and freedom on earth.
William J. Clinton
