More From Ronald Reagan
- "It’s silly talking about how many years we will have to spend in the jungles of Vietnam when we could pave the whole country and put parking stripes on it and still be home by Christmas."
- "Government is like a baby. An alimentary canal with a big appetite at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other."
- "You know, if I listened to Michael Dukakis long enough, I would be convinced we’re in an economic downturn and people are homeless and going without food and medical attention and that we’ve got to do something about the unemployed."

- "It is the desire of the good people of the whole country that sectionalism as a factor in our politics should disappear…’"― Rutherford B. Hayes
- "Christianity is not the faith of the complacent, the comfortable or of the timid. It demands and creates heroic souls like Wesley, Wilberforce, Bonhoeffer, John Paul the Second, and Billy Graham. Each showed, in their own way, the relentless and powerful influence of the message of Jesus Christ."― Mitt Romney
- "If the people cannot trust their government to do the job for which it exists – to protect them and to promote their common welfare – all else is lost."― Barack Obama
