Happy 98th!

Today is the 98th birthday of our 40th President, Ronald Reagan.  A few favorite quotes:

"Above all, we must realize that 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.  It is a weapon our adversaries in today's world do not have."

"Coercion, after all, merely captures man.  Freedom captivates him."

"Government always finds a need for whatever money it gets."

"Government exists to protect us from each other.  Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves."

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