Bill Clinton quotes - page 6

We need each other. All of us, we need each other. We don't have a person to waste. (Bill Clinton)
I don't care how precise your bombs and your weapons are, when you set them off, innocent people will die.
Bill Clinton
No wonder Americans hate politics when, year in and year out, they hear politicians make promises that won't come true because they don't even mean them - campaign fantasies that win elections but don't get nations moving again.
Bill Clinton
Hebrew שלום, חבר ("Goodbye, friend"). Eulogy at the funeral of Yitzhak Rabin, Jerusalem (February 16, 1996)
Bill Clinton
Everytime you cut off somebody else's opportunity you shrink your own horizon.
Bill Clinton
There is no real difference between selfish and selfless.
Bill Clinton
Criticism is part of the lifeblood of democracy. No one is right all the time. But we should remember that there is a big difference between criticizing a policy or a politician and demonizing the government that guarantees our freedoms and the public servants who enforce our laws.
Bill Clinton
A preemptive action today, however well-justified, may come back with unwelcome consequences in the future.
Bill Clinton
My fellow Americans, you have to decide what kind of country you want to live in. If you want a you're on your own, winner take all society you should support the Republican ticket. If you want a country of shared opportunities and shared responsibilities - a 'we're all in it together' society, you should vote for Barack Obama and Joe Biden.
Bill Clinton
One of the main reasons America should re-elect President Obama is that he is still committed to cooperation. He appointed Republican Secretaries of Defense, the Army and Transportation. He appointed a Vice President who ran against him in 2008.
Bill Clinton
President Obama's approach embodies the values, the ideas, and the direction America must take to build a 21st century version of the American Dream in a nation of shared opportunities, shared prosperity and shared responsibilities. (Bill Clinton)
When some Republican governors asked to try new ways to put people on welfare back to work, the Obama Administration said they would only do it if they had a credible plan to increase employment by 20%. You hear that? More work. So the claim that President Obama weakened welfare reform's work requirement is just not true.
Bill Clinton
President Obama has offered a plan with 4 trillion dollars in debt reduction over a decade, with two and a half dollars of spending reductions for every one dollar of revenue increases, and tight controls on future spending. It's the kind of balanced approach proposed by the bipartisan Simpson-Bowles commission.
Bill 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.
Bill Clinton
Character is a journey, not a destination.
Bill Clinton
I still believe in a place called Hope.
Bill Clinton
Though I often disagree with Republicans, I never learned to hate them the way the far right that now controls their party seems to hate President Obama and the Democrats.
Bill Clinton
When times are tough, constant conflict may be good politics but in the real world, cooperation works better. After all, nobody's right all the time, and a broken clock is right twice a day.
Bill Clinton
I want American Dream growth - lots of new businesses, well-paying jobs, and American leadership in new industries, like clean energy and biotechnology.
Bill Clinton
Promising too much can be as cruel as caring too little.
Bill Clinton
I personally don't believe we ought to be raising taxes or cutting spending, either one, until we get this economy off the ground. I'll pay more, but it won't solve the problem. (Bill Clinton)
President Obama's record on national security is a tribute to his strength, and judgment, and to his preference for inclusion and partnership over partisanship.
Bill Clinton
If you want a future of shared prosperity, where the middle class is growing and poverty is declining, where the American Dream is alive and well, and where the United States remains the leading force for peace and prosperity in a highly competitive world, you should vote for Barack Obama.
Bill Clinton
President Obama started with a much weaker economy than I did. Listen to me now. No president, not me, not any of my predecessors, no one could have fully repaired all the damage that he found in just four years.
Bill Clinton
I came of age believing that, no matter what happened, I would always be able to support myself.
Bill Clinton
