I think the word of the United States has been as good as gold in its international dealings and its agreements.
Condoleezza Rice
Well, there are many things, whenever you look back, that you would've done differently. We're all human. We do our best at the time. I really wish that we had passed a comprehensive immigration bill because that would've really helped our country. We came close, but we couldn't.
Condoleezza Rice
You have to have a strong sense of your values and a strong sense of who you are, because there are a lot of events and a lot of people who will pull you in this direction or that direction.
Condoleezza Rice
But in terms of Saddam Hussein being there, let's remember that his country is divided, in effect. He does not control the northern part of his country. We are able to keep arms from him. His military forces have not been rebuilt.
Condoleezza Rice
The political face of Europe is one that has said very clearly that it wants cooperation and friendship with the United States.

We've got to get back to a sense of an American identity, and that identity is not nationality or religion or ethnicity. It is a particular idea, and that idea is that you should live in liberty and you should be able to pursue happiness.
Condoleezza Rice
I never much cared for politics. I love policy, and I love international policy in particular. I got to be Secretary of State it really doesn't get much better than that. I love what I do. I love being a professor.
Condoleezza Rice
This is the democratic process at work, What you're seeing with this process is the Iraqi people embracing American-style democracy.
Condoleezza Rice
But, clearly, the prime minister has laid down some ground rules which any functioning democratic state would insist upon, having to do with, you know, arms belonging to the state, not to -- not in private hands. The current circumstances come out of what I think is a very important and indeed appropriate action that the Iraqi government has taken.
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
At no time did I intend to, or do I believe that I did put forward false information to the American people.
Condoleezza Rice
If you cannot allow people to do their jobs ... nobody with substance and creativity will work for you.

It has been, after all, 11 years, more than a decade now, of defiance of U.N. resolutions by Saddam Hussein. Every obligation that he signed onto after the Gulf War, so that he would not be a threat to peace and security, he has ignored and flaunted.
Condoleezza Rice
I believe that Reverend [Florine] Thompson's hit on something. My parents, I and a lot of my friends growing up in that community had tremendous drive.
