Humor of Ronald Reagan

"Here's my strategy on the Cold War: We win, they lose."

"The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the
government and I'm here to help."

"The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant: It's
just that they know so much that isn't so."

"Of the four wars in my lifetime, none came about because the U.S. was too strong."!

"I have wondered at times about what the Ten Commandments would have looked like if Moses had run them through the U.S. Congress."

"The taxpayer: That's someone who works for the federal government but
doesn't have to take the civil service examination."

"Government is like a baby: An alimentary canal with a big appetite at one
end and no sense of responsibility at the other."

"If we ever forget that we're one nation under God, then we will be a
nation gone under."

"The nearest thing to eternal life we will ever see on this earth is a
government program."

"I've laid down the law, though, to everyone from now on about anything
that happens: no matter what time it is, wake me, even if it's in the
middle of a Cabinet meeting."

"It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession. I have
learned that it bears a striking resemblance to the first."

"Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short
phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it
stops moving, subsidize it."

"Politics is not a bad profession. If you succeed there are many rewards,
if you disgrace yourself you can always write a book."

"No arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable
as the will and moral courage of free men and women."
