"Now, so there will be no misunderstanding,..." - Quote by Ronald Reagan

“We can look forward to the day when the free flow of trade, from the southern reaches of Tierra del Fuego to the northern outposts of the Arctic Circle, unites the people of the Western Hemisphere in a bond of mutually beneficial exchange, when all borders become what the U.S.-Canadian border so long has been: a meeting place, rather than a dividing line.”

“As government expands, liberty contracts.”

“Here you discover that so long as books are kept open, then minds can never be closed.”

“Webster never goes behind government, and so cannot speak with authority about it. His words are wisdom to those legislators who contemplate no essential reform in the existing government; but for thinkers, and those who legislate for all time, he never once glances at the subject.... Comparatively, he is always strong, original, and, above all, practical. Still, his quality is not wisdom, but prudence.”

“I think our governments will remain virtuous for many centuries; as long as they are chiefly agricultural.”

“Democracy is "government of, by and for the people".”

“The speed at which a business success is recognized, furthermore, is not that important as long as the company's intrinsic value is increasing at a satisfactory rate. In fact, delayed recognition can be an advantage: It may give us the chance to buy more of a good thing at a bargain price.”

“Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there. Opportunity rarely knocks on your door. Knock rather on opportunity's door if you ardently wish to enter.”

“It is time for a new generation of leadership, to cope with new problems and new opportunities. For there is a new world to be won.”
