Ronald Reagan Quotes About Optimism

• I've always thought New Year's Day was an especially American tradition, full of the optimism and hope we're famous for in our daily lives -- an energy and confidence we call the American spirit.

These values have given a renewed sense of worth to our lives. They are infusing America with confidence and optimism that many thought we had lost.
