Democracy does not have to be ...

Democracy does not have to be a bloodsport, it can be an honorable enterprise that advances the public interest.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

If ever there comes a time whe...

If ever there comes a time when everyone you vote for wins and they do everything you think they should do, there will still be a gap between what is and what ought to be.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

I think what breaks people is ...

I think what breaks people is not adversity; what breaks people is thinking that tomorrow is going to be just like yesterday. That's what's numbing - if you think you can't change, you can't be better. And I didn't like that.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

When I was president, I knew exactly what I wanted to do every day to bring America together and create a greater sense of opportunity and a larger sense of responsibility and a stronger sense of community.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

We should pass a flex time law...

We should pass a flex time law that allows employees to take their overtime pay in money or in time off, depending on what's better for their family.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

Technology really has turned out to be a wonderful thing. . . . So Americans really are tuning in in positive ways on the Internet.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

Our big goal should be to make...

Our big goal should be to make connection to the Internet as common as connection to telephones is today.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

We should set a national goal ...

We should set a national goal of making computers and Internet access available for every American . . . we must help all Americans gain the skills they need to make the most of the connection.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

That is, we're into a whole new world with the Internet, and whenever we sort of cross another plateau in our development, there are those who seek to take advantage of it. So this is a replay of things that have happened throughout our history.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

All America loses when any per...

All America loses when any person is denied or forced out of a job because of sexual orientation. Being gay, the last time I thought about it, seemed to have nothing to do with the ability to read a balance book, fix a broken bone, or change a spark plug.

It is now conceivable that our children's children will know the term cancer only as a constellation of stars.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

It's important that the Americ...

It's important that the American people understand that President has proposed and passed this stimulus plan not as the end-all and be-all to our economic woes but as our bridge over troubled water until we get the finance system, the banking system working again.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

The risk is that as we come ou...

The risk is that as we come out of this recession, we'll have so much debt to finance, we'll either have to have inflation or very high interest rates to continue to borrow the money, or both. That's a risk.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

The stimulus is our bridge ove...

The stimulus is our bridge over troubled waters. And if it's invested well, it'll generate a lot of economic growth, and we'll get quite a bit of the revenues back.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

If you look at what's happened...

If you look at what's happened to the stock market, if you look at what's happened to housing values, if you look at what's happened to bank loan portfolios because the value of their other assets that they've already issued loans against were going down, there was a pretty good argument for trying to pass something at about this level of investment with the divisions as they were - unemployment, food stamps, and tax cuts, aid to education and healthcare, and job creation.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

People ought to be going over ...

People ought to be going over this, finding things they don't like. Congress has clearly proved they can act in a hurry. If there's something wrong with it, it can be amended. If something needs to be kicked in, it can be put in. If something needs to be taken out, it can be taken out.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

It's the biggest public health...

It's the biggest public health problem in America, the rising rates of obesity among our young people and very heavy statistics among our adult population.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

I did a lot of work on energy ...

I did a lot of work on energy efficiency at the White House. By the time I left we had taken the equivalent of six hundred cars a year off the road in reduced greenhouse gas emissions just in the White House complex.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

The Kyoto Treaty wasn't perfec...

The Kyoto Treaty wasn't perfect, but we signed it, in fact, helped to draft it. And I'm very proud of it, it was the world's first commitment to doing something comprehensive on greenhouse gases and trying to reduce global warming before we do irreversible damage to many civilizations around the world.

Bill Clinton 751 quotes

It's only in America where the...

It's only in America where there seems to be this sort of systematic denial of the reality of global warming at the governmental level, and in too many sectors of the high, the private sector. But it looks to me the business community may actually lead us toward a clean energy future almost in spite of government policy.
