Bill Clinton

The terrible people who did this thing do not deserve to be celebrities, although they will become famous.

That's what the American people want, and it's the right thing to do.

We are going to get through this, and when we do, we'll be even stronger.

I'm committed to doing everything in my power to make schools places where young people can be safe.

Guns simply don't belong in school.

We need a seamless web of safety that keeps guns out of the hands of our children and out of our schools.

I also call upon government officials to display the flag on all government buildings and grounds on this day.

We must reverse the practical impact of the Court's decision.

I am determined to keep guns out of our schools.

But this country is bound together in a way that the people like those who committed those crimes in Oklahoma can never understand.

I am really proud of the work the American press corps did in bringing this to the American people.

I thank these hardworking citizens across the country for helping to keep the American Dream alive.

Through much of this period, small businesses generated most of the Nation's new jobs.

Growing numbers of women and minorities are empowering themselves through small business ownership.

America's small business entrepreneurs are risk-takers, venturing into new and often uncertain territory.

I ran for President to make sure that the American dream would be available to all of our children well into the next century.

Good teaching is forever, and the teacher is immortal.

We owe it to the children of this country to make sure that every one of them has the best possible education.

Today, 90 percent of the children in that remote village graduate from high school.

At the heart of our free enterprise system are the Nation's 21.5 million small businesses.

Nothing we do in government will matter at all unless there are people like the teachers who are being honored here today.

We are here to remember those whose lives were taken from us too soon.

AmeriCorps efforts go hand in hand with the voluntarism we celebrate today.

On this Freedom Day, April 27, I congratulate the people of South Africa on their progress and courage.

It is that spirit which we honor today.
