Ronald Reagan Quotes:

Ocupation: 40th U.S. President

Life: February 6, 1911 - June 5, 2004

Birthday: February 6

Death: June 5

And how stands the city on this winter night? More prosperous, more secure, and happier than it was 8 years ago. But more than that: After 200 years, two centuries, she still stands strong and true on the granite ridge, and her glow has held steady no matter what storm. And she's still a beacon, still a magnet for all who must have freedom, for all the pilgrims from all the lost places who are hurtling through the darkness, toward home.

- Ronald Reagan
