The BBC has some great Reagan quotes up on their website. Here are a few I like:
I seem to have listed most of them. Check out the rest too, they're all good, either wise or funny or most of the time both.
-The other day someone told me the difference between a democracy and a people's democracy. It's the same difference between a jacket and a straitjacket.
-We will always remember. We will always be proud. We will always be prepared, so we may always be free
On the 40th anniversary of the Normandy landings, 6 June, 1984
-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, subsidise it.
-I've noticed that everybody who is for abortion has already been born.
-How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.
-My fellow Americans, I'm pleased to tell you today that I've signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes.
