America just works better when more people have a chance to live their dreams.
BILL CLINTON, speech at Democratic National Convention, July 26, 2004
The best social program is a good job.
BILL CLINTON
I do not believe we can repair the basic fabric of society until people who are willing to work have work. Work organizes life. It gives structure and discipline to life.
You don’t have to wait till your party’s in power to have an impact on life at home and around the world.
BILL CLINTON, speech at Campus Progress National Student Conference, July 13, 2005
Frankly, I'm fed up with politicians in Washington lecturing the rest of us about family values. Our families have values. But our government doesn’t.
BILL CLINTON, speech at Democratic National Convention, July 16, 1992
You can’t blame your opponents for applying a strategy that beats your brains out with regularity.
BILL CLINTON, speech at Campus Progress National Student Conference, July 13, 2005
People really don’t care if politicians attack each other with untrue stories. They figure if you don’t want to get hurt, you shouldn’t have filed for office. They figure whatever happens to us, our lives will be better than theirs.
BILL CLINTON, speech at Campus Progress National Student Conference, July 13, 2005
The most important family policy, urban policy, labor policy, minority policy, and foreign policy America can have is an expanding entrepreneurial economy of high-wage, high-skilled jobs.
BILL CLINTON, speech at Democratic National Convention, July 16, 1992
The future is not an inheritance, it is an opportunity and an obligation.
The price of doing the same old thing is far higher than the price of change.
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.
Americans long to be united. After 9/11, we all just wanted to be one nation. Not a single American on September the 12, 2001, cared who won the next presidential election.
BILL CLINTON, speech at Democratic National Convention, July 26, 2004
For too long we've been told about "us" and "them." Each and every election we see a new slate of arguments and ads telling us that "they" are the problem, not "us." But there can be no "them" in America. There's only us.
Banning human cloning reflects our humanity. It is the right thing to do. Creating a child through this new method calls into question our most fundamental beliefs. It has the potential to threaten the sacred family bonds at the very core of our ideals and our society. At its worst, it could lead to misguided and malevolent attempts to select certain traits, even to create certain kind of children -- to make our children objects rather than cherished individuals.
BILL CLINTON, speech, June 9, 1997
Abortion should not only be safe and legal, it should be rare.
BILL CLINTON, speech at DNC, Aug. 29, 1996
If you live long enough, you'll make mistakes. But if you learn from them, you'll be a better person.
I mean, you know, this idea that somebody we disagree with on economic or social policy or something we have to turn into some kind of ogre or demon, I think, is a mistake. I mean, it's like telling the American people or half the American people that don't agree with you they're all fools. That's just not true.
BILL CLINTON, interview on Larry King Live, June 1, 2005
There is nothing wrong in America that can't be fixed with what is right in America.
BILL CLINTON
I still believe in a place called Hope, a place called America.
BILL CLINTON, speech at Democratic National Convention, August 29, 1996
When we give what we can and give it with joy, we don't just renew the American tradition of giving, we also renew ourselves.
BILL CLINTON, Woman's Day Magazine, Jul. 10, 2007
