More from William Jefferson Clinton

• Big things are expected of us, and nothing big ever came of being small.
• Now, people ask me all the time how we got four surplus budgets in a row. What new ideas did we bring to Washington? I always give a one-word answer: Arithmetic.
• There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured by what is right with America.
