Reagan Quotes

[DJD]

Grumpy reminded me by his recent Reagan quote on another thread..that we had a POTUS that did ALOT of things right.

I loved his quotes and Hollywood style of delivering the lines so I thought I would add one. Heck lets all add one or two just to keep the hope of real "change" alive.

1) "Man is not free unless government is limited.... As government expands, liberty contracts"

2) "Nations crumble from within when the citizenry asks of government those things which the citizenry might better provide for itself. ... [I] hope we have once again reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There's a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: As government expands, liberty contracts."

"When you can't make them see the light...make them feel the heat".

"Republicans believe everyday is the 4th of July; but the Democrats believe everday is April the 15th"

"To sit back hoping that someday, some way, someone will make things right is like to go on feeding the crocodiles, hoping he will eat you last - but eat you he will".

Tell ya what man ..after I finish this Sarah Palin book (almost complete) I'm gonna get a Reagan book. It's nice to hear their side of how things happened.
As far as Sarah Palin I can now see why she stepped down as Gov. of Alaska. The Libs hated her! Still do....and it's because she speaks our lauguage and that is a threat to gubment loving libs.
