Favorite presidential quotes

Did a search found nothing.

Here’s mine, (you have to stick your index finger out in a pointing fashion to say this)

I did not have sex with that woman.

Bill Clinton

But, J. Danforth Quayle is the best source for amusing quotations that I’ve ever seen.
Witness this, Former USA VP Dan Quayle Quotes

“The history of liberty is a history of limitations of governmental power, not the increase of it.”
(Woodrow Wilson, 1912)

“I’ve just signed legislation that outlaws Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes.” – Ronald Reagan

Harry Truman to Douglas MacArthur: “You’re fired.” :slight_smile:

“Any person who may be asked … What they did to make their life worthwhile … Can respond with pride and satisfaction … I served in the United States Navy.”
– John F. Kennedy, 1963 Naval Academy Graduation Address

“If that is the case, then I fear that General Pinckney has kept the four for himself, and cheated me out of my two.”

John Adams, upon hearing the Republican charge that Pinckney had dispatched a United States frigate to England to bring back four attractive girls, which he and the President would share as mistresses.

“If I were two-faced, would I be wearing this one?” - Abraham Lincoln

The facts are stupid things.
Bush or Regan?

Sorry, what Clinto said was:
…" I did not have sex with that woman, Miss Lewinsky…"

and three weeks later:

“…I did have a sexual relationship…”

and later (in the same speech):

“… even Presidents have private lives…”

All this from the guy who promised he would never lie to the American people!!

Reagan.

My favorite - from ol’ silent Cal :

  • Calvin coolidge

No one ever listened themselves out of a job.

He’s not president yet, thank God, but here is the funniest quote from Shrub:

“This is Preservation Month. I appreciate preservation. It’s what you do when you run for president. You gotta preserve.”—Speaking during “Perseverance Month” at Fairgrounds Elementary School in Nashua, N.H. As quoted in the Los Angeles Times, Jan. 28, 2000.

Great example for the kids, right? Goodness gracious! That man makes me laugh, the same way Perot did…between fits of vomiting. :slight_smile:

I don’t think it’s that either.

I recall Clinton saying, “I did not have sexual relations with that women, Miss Lewinsky.”

I still like Tricky Dicky’s “I am not a crook”

“You lose.”

  • Calvin Coolidge, when a woman asked him to say something, because she bet a friend that she could get more than two words out of him.
