More quotes by Condoleezza Rice
I'm actually genuinely optimistic about the United States and what's possible in the United States.

And you maybe get a little bit less cynical than when you sit in the seat of kind of the epicenter of it all.
Condoleezza Rice
If the strong exploit the weak, democracy will not be stable.
Condoleezza Rice
We're in the middle of the transformation of a society that has handled its politics through repression to a society that will handle its politics through democratic institutions.
Condoleezza Rice
I believe in having a private life.

Condoleezza Rice
What the United States has done hasn't always been liked or popular. But if you look at some of the most populous places in the world - China, India - the United States is not only respected but, in fact, popular.
Condoleezza Rice
Hillary Clinton is somebody of great intelligence. She is somebody who really loves this country, who speaks forcefully and well for American interests and values.
Condoleezza Rice
History's long arc is different than the today's headlines.
Condoleezza Rice
I think it's very humble to believe that there is no man, woman or child who should live in tyranny. That people who say, well, maybe Arabs just aren't ready for democracy or maybe Africans just are going to have corrupt governments, that seems to me arrogant.
Condoleezza Rice
Well, of course, all of the statistics say there are fewer eligible black men in my circle. But I've never thought of it that way. I believe that if the right person came into my life that would have been terrific.
Condoleezza Rice
The Iranian people have a proud past. They merit a great future.
Condoleezza Rice
We're all products of our environment, and I suspect that strength of will - the feeling, I'm going to be able to do whatever you put in front of me - is honed in an environment where not everything is easy. Ironically, growing up in that environment, you don't have a sense of aggrievement or entitlement. You just have a sense of overcoming.
