When you work in Hollywood for several decades, you tend to pick up a thing or two. For some, they pick up all that is wrong with the industry out in Los Angeles. For others though, they pick up the quick wit it takes to survive and to thrive in the community.
While many of Hollywood’s leading stars are extremely comfortable in their plush lifestyles, many behind the scenes and up and comers have to hustle and work every single angle in an industry that is cutthroat and always chomping at the bit to replace someone with someone else who is better, younger and more attractive.
Ronald Reagan, known as one of the greatest presidents in the history of the United States, came from Hollywood and ultimately took with him some of the better lessons from the industry. This includes how to have a quick mind and a wicked sense of humor.
Before the age of the teleprompter and other forms of technology, the ability to instantly recall information proved much more challenging. Ronald Reagan not only could do this, but he could relate some of the best one liners throughout his time as president. He found humor to be a great way to interact with other people and to develop friendships, because after all, who doesn’t like a good laugh.
From following an assassination attempt to taking part in debates, check out the video to see some of Ronald Reagan’s best one liners.
