More quotes by Condoleezza Rice

Condoleezza Rice
I'm a terrible long-term planner.
Condoleezza Rice
We have had some bad incidents and there continue to be allegations of others which will be investigated but overwhelmingly American forces there, putting their lives on the line every day, protecting Iraqis, helping to liberate them, that is appreciated by the Iraqi people and by the Prime Minister.
Condoleezza Rice
My job is to try to advance American foreign policy, to try to advance the president's agenda on democracy and human rights.
Condoleezza Rice
Richard Clarke had plenty of opportunities to tell us, in the administration, that he thought the war on terrorism was moving in the wrong direction and he chose not to.
Condoleezza Rice
We are at war, and our security as a nation depends on winning that war.

Condoleezza Rice
First, I wanted to answer the question I'm most frequently asked: How did you become who you are? Well, you had to know John and Angelena Rice.
Condoleezza Rice
Ultimately, we didn't go to Germany to create a democracy. We went to overthrow Adolf Hitler. But once a democracy was there, Germany was a much bigger supporter of and help to our national interests, both economic and security than had ever been before.
Condoleezza Rice
Well, I didn't feel that I could do justice to this story of my parents and their generation, and all that they did to make it possible for me to be who I am, if I sort of just put it at the beginning of a book about my last eight years in foreign policy.
Condoleezza Rice
We need a common enemy to unite us.
Condoleezza Rice
The U.S. has since the end of World War II had an answer - we stand for free peoples and free markets, we are willing to support and defend them - we will sustain a balance of power that favors freedom.
Condoleezza Rice
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
If you cannot allow people to do their jobs ... nobody with substance and creativity will work for you.
Condoleezza Rice
Punish France, ignore Germany, and forgive Russia.
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
No American president can support an Egypt that calls into question the historic treaty between Israel and Egypt. And no American president can support an Egypt that doesn't fully recognize women's rights or the rights of religious minorities.
Condoleezza Rice
We can't live true to our set of values unless American educational system is strong. I really believe that if we don't get that right we will not compete because we won't believe that our people can compete, and we'll turn inward. We won't lead. That will be bad for the world.
