I recently inherited a CD copy of the above radio addresses by Ronald Reagan. Many of us may not know Reagan had a syndicated radio show--a couple minutes a week--across the nation from 1976 to 1979. He offered bits of wisdom and philosophy...and he wrote them himself.
I think you can download these radio pieces for less than $10 at amazon. I don't own any stock in this--but I can tell you, it is well worth the price.
Reagan was a great man--and he still speaks wisdom to us today.

The book, "In His Own Hand" has many speeches the Gipper wrote throughout his career and is a great insight into this man who was a principled patriot.
This Little Red Hen story is not original with Reagan, but his delivery enhances any story.

Reagan made us feel good to be Americans, Clinton made us ashamed of our relatives and Bush makes us sad.

Heaven is richer for his presence, and we are poorer for his absence.
God rest President Ronald Reagan.
I miss him.

Ronald Wilson Reagan was, IMO, the greatest president in my lifetime. I'll never forget the goosebumps I had when I first heard his speech in support of Barry Goldwater. I taped it on an old reel to reel recorder so my kids could hear a real statesman.
(BTW, I'm getting the same feeling about John Cornyn, Senator from TX. Time will tell...)
