Ronald W Reagan Famous Quotes
Ronald Reagan was the fortieth president of the United States. Before becoming the president, he was the governor of California from 1967 until 1975. He also acted in movies and was the president of the Screen Actors Guild. |
Here are some of the famous quotes by Ronald Reagan:
- Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.
- You and I have a rendezvous with destiny. We will preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand years of darkness. If we fail, at least let our children and our children's children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could be done.
- The ultimate determinant in the struggle now going on for the world will not be bombs and rockets but a test of wills and ideas-a trial of spiritual resolve: the values we hold, the beliefs we cherish and the ideals to which we are dedicated.
- People don't start wars, governments do.
- Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today's world do not have.
- Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.
- Politics is supposed to be the second oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first.
- There are no great limits to growth because there are no limits of human intelligence, imagination, and wonder.
- I have left orders to be awakened at any time in case of national emergency, even if I'm in a cabinet meeting.
- The nine most terrifying words in the English language are... I'm from the government and I'm here to help.
- But there are advantages to being elected President. The day after I was elected, I had my high school grades classified Top Secret.
- Thomas Jefferson once said, 'We should never judge a president by his age, only by his works.' And ever since he told me that, I stopped worrying.
- General Secretary Gorbachev, if you seek peace, if you seek prosperity for the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, if you seek liberalization: Come here to this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, open this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!
