Our challenge is to remind ourselves that we do have common interest, common grounds, and common dreams.
Quote by -Janet Reno
I'm vitally interested in cyber crime and in preparing law enforcement for a time when crime is international in its origins and its consequences.
Quote by -Janet Reno
My mother taught us to play baseball, to bake a cake, to play fair - she beat the living daylights out of us sometimes, and she loved us with all her heart; she taught her favorite poets, and there is no child care in the world that will ever be a substitute for what that lady was in our life.
Quote by -Janet Reno
I would like to use the law of this land to do everything I possibly can to protect America's children from abuse and violence and to give to each of them the opportunity to grow to be strong, healthy and self-sufficient citizens of this country.
Quote by -Janet Reno
The Justice Department is staunchly committed to ensuring that all Americans are treated in a fair and just manner.
Quote by -Janet Reno
It's fine to get paid and get a big verdict, but to go out and represent people, sometimes in unglamorous ways, is really what lawyering is all about.
Quote by -Janet Reno
All lawyers are going to have to - if we really want to attain civil justice - address the issue of how complicated we have made the laws: what we have done to ensnarl the American people in bureaucratic rules and regulations that make access to services or compliance with the law sometimes difficult, if not impossible.
Quote by -Janet Reno
We've got to look to our educational programs and focus on doing what we can to stem violence in the schools.
Quote by -Janet Reno
Anybody that thought that I tried to protect the president has forgotten that I asked for the expansion of the Monica Lewinsky matter.
Quote by -Janet Reno
Let us develop an agenda for children that says we can do something about teen pregnancy. Let us make sure that parents are old enough, wise enough, and financially able to take care of their children.
Quote by -Janet Reno
What has too often happened in the past is that people have threatened punishment but have failed to carry it out. It's imperative in any initiative that is undertaken that punishment be real and that there be truth in sentencing, and that the truly dangerous offenders - the recidivists and the career criminals - be put away and kept away.
Quote by -Janet Reno
Too many Americans mistrust their government. And unnecessary government secrecy feeds this mistrust.
Quote by -Janet Reno
Juveniles as well as adults need to know they're going to be punished for their violent acts.
Quote by -Janet Reno
I want to do what I can to make the law make sense to citizens and businesses alike. I want the laws to assist them in worthwhile endeavors, not to stand as bureaucratic obstacles.
Quote by -Janet Reno
What we must do is to sit down together as reasonable people and make our government do what is right, and stop doing what may be wrong-headed or wasteful.
Quote by -Janet Reno
Draw great strength from your family and give in turn to those who come after you.
Quote by -Janet Reno
My earnest hope is that what we started in terms of building partnerships with communities across America will continue, that we will continue our efforts to reduce crime and violence.
Quote by -Janet Reno
I was personally opposed to the death penalty, and yet I think I have probably asked for the death penalty more than most people in the United States.
Quote by -Janet Reno
It is the police of America who are on the front lines, who are on the streets, who are in the daily contact with American citizens, who translate the dreams of American citizens when they succeed and frustrate the dreams when they fail.
Quote by -Janet Reno
It was not the president's responsibility to run a law enforcement operation. It was ours.
Quote by -Janet Reno
What makes our country unique is its commitment to being open, to making its leaders accountable.
Quote by -Janet Reno
We have initiated programs for re-entry offenders, since some 500,000 to 600,000 offenders will come out of prison each year for the next three or four years. We want to have positive alternatives when they come back to the community.
Quote by -Janet Reno
Until the day I die, or until the day I can't think anymore, I want to be involved in the issues that I care about.
Quote by -Janet Reno
We, the American people, owe the nation's police officers our deepest gratitude, our best efforts, and our strong support, for they have done so much for us against such great odds.
Quote by -Janet Reno
I didn't like the Feds coming to town when I was in Miami, telling me what to do. I didn't like them coming to town and thinking that they knew more about Miami than I do.
Quote by -Janet Reno
We're all in this together, and we all have to make an investment in our most precious possession and in the foundation of our future: our young people.
Quote by -Janet Reno
I collected child support in Dade County, and they wrote a rap song about me, so the kids knew about it, and they started asking me questions about child support. What happens if she wastes the money? What happens if he doesn't pay? And I answered the questions.
Quote by -Janet Reno
I think one of the keys to any crime-prevention program that's got to be developed is to focus on punishment - to let people know that there is a sanction and a punishment for hurting others.
Quote by -Janet Reno
One of the reasons I love the law is because I was raised in family - my grandfather was a lawyer, but more importantly, my grandmother was his secretary. And she taught me that lawyers were some of the most civil, most courteous - and in those days, most courtly - people that she knew.
Quote by -Janet Reno
Do and act on what you believe to be right, and you'll wake up the next morning feeling good about yourself.
Quote by -Janet Reno
We must honor, protect and support our police officers and their families every day of the year.
Quote by -Janet Reno
We recognize that violence is a learned behavior. One of the best classrooms for learning violence is in the home.
Quote by -Janet Reno
A street criminal can steal only what he can carry, but with a stroke of a pen, the dialing of a telephone or the pushing of a computer key, the white collar criminal can and does steal billions.
Quote by -Janet Reno
We must try to understand the true weight of law enforcement officers' burdens.
Quote by -Janet Reno
We've got to make sure that the young, violent, serious juvenile offender is punished, that it's fair punishment, that it's punishment that fits the crime and that is understood and that is anticipated and expected.
Quote by -Janet Reno
I think, clearly, where you have a situation in which the Solicitor General tells me, 'I cannot in good faith argue a certainly legal position,' and if the president told us to argue that position, we would have to tell him, 'No, we can't do that, Mr. President.'
Quote by -Janet Reno
We simply must find ways both to bridge the differences that still seem to divide us and focus on the things that we share.
Quote by -Janet Reno
I think police officers can work with social workers and public health nurses to do so much in terms of addressing the problem of American families, of children in American families as a whole, and giving them an opportunity to get off to a fresh start, to become self-sufficient, to lead safe, constructive lives.
Quote by -Janet Reno
This is a beautiful country. Each of us has a favorite river, a mountain, just a patch of sky for some of us. I want to use the law to make sure that the waters, the land, and the skies of this nation are protected.
Quote by -Janet Reno
Each generation looks to its children to keep our society moving and to make life better.
Quote by -Janet Reno
The Bar Association can do so much in teaching people how to resolve conflicts without knives and guns and fists.
Quote by -Janet Reno
Peer mediation is a chance for students to work with other students to help them resolve problems, arguments, disagreements without having to get the teacher or the administration involved.
Quote by -Janet Reno
While I'm the Attorney General, we will address each issue with one question: What's the right thing to do?
