I suggest using GW instead, he was much more proficient at coming up with memorable ones. I'll start: "Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning?"

Agreed and I feel bad for spreading love to just one prez so let's make it great presidential quotes!

How about VP's? Quayle is a gold mine!

''What a waste it is to lose one's mind. Or not to have a mind is being very wasteful. How true that is.''

I think you missed the point - Notice the example: "So, apparently operation shovel ready, wasn't so ready! "

"The strongest democracies flourish from frequent and lively debate, but they endure when people of every background and belief find a way to set aside smaller differences in service of a greater purpose."

"We have found ourselves rich in goods, but ragged in spirit; reaching with magnificent precision for the moon, but falling into raucous discord on earth.

We are caught in war, wanting peace. We are torn by division, wanting unity. We see around us empty lives, wanting fulfillment. We see tasks that need doing, waiting for hands to do them.

To a crisis of the spirit, we need an answer of the spirit.

To find that answer, we need only look within ourselves." - Nixon

Biden: ""Stand up, Chuck, let 'em see ya."

We'd need a separate thread for Biden. "Three letter word, 'JOBS'. J-O-B-S 'JOBS'."

I'm sure it would be something like this one from LAST WEEK ....

Hey Joe lets send T.O.W. Anti-tank missiles to the Syrian rebels, I know they are affiliated with Al-Q, fly the Al-Q flag, AND openly working to setup a Sharia Law state, BUT Saudi Arabia really wants us to send these US weapons .... so lets do it.

Spoiler: According to Google they went through with it and the weapons are on their way.

This is just a week after the Saudi Embassadar openly asked the US to send them. Its in the Washington Post people!

Now for a seriously good one (no sarcasm)
Jimmy Carter:
"The symptoms of this crisis of the American spirit are all around us. For the first time in the history of our country a majority of our people believe that the next five years will be worse than the past five years. Two-thirds of our people do not even vote. The productivity of American workers is actually dropping, and the willingness of Americans to save for the future has fallen below that of all other people in the Western world....The confidence that we have always had as a people is not simply some romantic dream or a proverb in a dusty book that we read just on the Fourth of July.
It is the idea which founded our nation and has guided our development as a people. Confidence in the future has supported everything else -- public institutions and private enterprise, our own families, and the very Constitution of the United States. Confidence has defined our course and has served as a link between generations. We've always believed in something called progress. We've always had a faith that the days of our children would be better than our own....One of the visitors to Camp David last week put it this way: "We've got to stop crying and start sweating, stop talking and start walking, stop cursing and start praying. The strength we need will not come from the White House, but from every house in America."

-Crisis of Confidence 1979
