Condoleezza Rice
I don't think that anybody could have predicted that these people would take an airplane and slam it into the World Trade Center, take another one and slam it into the Pentagon, that they would try to use an airplane as a missile.
Condoleezza Rice
I've never really been a workaholic.
Condoleezza Rice

Condoleezza Rice

Condoleezza Rice
I'm very proud that we stood for the proposition that no man, woman or child should ever have to live in tyranny. We believed in democracy and promoted it.
Condoleezza Rice
In light of 50 years of bondage of Eastern Europe, [invading the Soviet Union in 1948 to prevent it from acquiring nuclear weapons] was probably a reasonable thing to do.
Condoleezza Rice
I play a lot chamber music.As for something that's hard for me to play, before I leave this Earth I'm hoping to play Brahms' Second Piano Concerto.
Condoleezza Rice

Condoleezza Rice

Condoleezza Rice
To see an African-American elected president means that this country is really finally coming full circle from the birth defect of slavery.
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
I've found my place in life, that I'm passionate about, my talents and my passion have merged, and I'm trying to do the best that I can.
