Bill Clinton on America

We are living in a world, where what we earn is a function of what we learn.

When I took office, only high energy physicists had ever heard of what is called the Worldwide Web….now even my cat has its own page.

We need not just a new generation of leadership but a new gender of leadership.

To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.

Americans can always be counted on to do the right thing…after they have exhausted all other possibilities.

Winston Churchill1874–1965

No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.
