Reagan was conservative, but he didn't approach global management with an unbending religious zeal.
Randall Robinson
Image
Reagan has very significant things to teach us - positive lessons and quite negative lessons.
Eugene Jarecki
Image
Reagan is the only man to take the presidency as a part-time job, a means of filling up the otherwise empty hours of retirement.
Simon Hoggart
Image
Reagan, people claimed, was too old to run for president and to be elected. But he proved himself such a vigorous campaigner in the primary system that he overcame those beliefs.
Geoffrey Cowan
Image
Reagan didn't put anything off the table, if he felt it was for the good of the American people to tweak the tax system.
Alan K. Simpson
Image
Reagan loved and respected his father, Jack Reagan. But if there was a father figure to Reagan in the religious sense, it was Ben Cleaver. What Reagan's father didn't provide spiritually, from a fatherly point of view, Cleaver did.
Paul Kengor
Image
Reagan thought that school prayer was important because it was crucial to begin each day reminding students that their inalienable rights came to them from their Creator and not from government bureaucrats.
Paul Kengor
Image
Reagan is the Republican FDR, an exemplar of presidential greatness.
Jon Meacham
Image
Reagan and Bush... made the world safe for hypocrisy.
Julia Phillips
Image
Reagan was an exceedingly likeable guy, just a heck of a nice fellow, despite his politics. He was funny and loved a good joke, the dirtier, I'm afraid the more ethnic, the better. I don't think he brought very much to the presidency, except charisma and success.
Walter Cronkite
Image
Reagan is both too fatalistic and too modest to be a crudaser. He doesn't have that darkness around the eyes of a George McGovern.
William F. Buckley, Jr.
Image
Reagan has conducted an arms race on earth, boomed Mondale. A race generally implies two parties. The Soviets contributed a little bit to this problem, if Mondale had not noticed.
Hugh Sidey
Image
Reagan won because he was real. He believed in America. He told people he was gonna make it great again coming out of a disastrous four years of Jimmy Carter and Watergate before that.
Rush Limbaugh
Image
Reagan survived the Iran-Contra scandal because the elements of it that were illegal (aiding anti-communist Nicaraguans) were popular and the things that were unpopular (arming the Iranians) were quite legal.
David Frum
Image
Reagan won because he ran against Jimmy Carter. If he ran unopposed he would have lost.
Mort Sahl
Image
Reagan was extreme. Beginning of his administration, one of the first things was to call in scabs - hadn't been done for a long time, and it's illegal in most countries - in the air controller strike.
Noam Chomsky
Image
Reagan bankrupted the Soviet Union by increasing armaments.
Norman Mailer
Image
Reagan didn't socialize with the press. He spent his evenings with Nancy, watching TV with dinner trays. But he knew that to transcend, you can't condescend.
Maureen Dowd
Image
Reagan's dead, and he was a lousy President.
Keith Olbermann
Image
Think about one of the most powerful influences on a young child's life - the absence of a father figure. Look back on recent presidents, and you'll find an absent, or weak, or failed father in the lives of Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.
Jeff Greenfield
Image
As his vice president for eight years, I learned more from Ronald Reagan than from anyone I encountered in all my years of public life.
George H. W. Bush
Image
It is worth emphasizing that Iran released our hostages in 1981 the day Ronald Reagan was sworn into office.
Ted Cruz
Image
[Donald] Trump has more of a mandate than any president since Ronald Reagan.
Rush Limbaugh
Image
[Ronald Reagan] appealed to that group of [working American] people and we can do it again, because they've had, now, eight years of [Barak] Obama. Things have not gone well.
