More quotes by Condoleezza Rice
For 60 years, my country, the United States, pursued stability at the expense of democracy in this region, here in the Middle East, and we achieved neither.
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.
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
Defeating human trafficking is a great moral calling of our time...
Condoleezza Rice
The PDB (Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S.) does not say the United States is going to be attacked. It says Bin Laden would like to attack the United States. I don't think you, frankly, had to have that report to know that Bin Laden would like to attack the United States.
Condoleezza Rice
Everywhere that I go in the world, people desperately look to American leadership in all of their world's most difficult problems. You can look at any region of the world and the United States is still the country to which those regions look for leadership.
Condoleezza Rice
So I think, if September 11 taught us anything, it taught us that we're vulnerable, and vulnerable in ways that we didn't fully understand.
Condoleezza Rice
I have no doubt that as the Iraqi security forces get better, and they are getting better and they are holding territory and they are doing these things with minimal help, that we are going to be able to bring down the levels of our forces. And I have no doubt that that's going to happen in a reasonable time frame.
Condoleezza Rice
I think the word of the United States has been as good as gold in its international dealings and its agreements.
Condoleezza Rice
America cannot do most of what needs to be done alone. You need friends. And we have good friends around the world. We have friends with whom we share values in Europe and Asia - thanks to the forward march of democracy - in Latin America, in Africa, and increasingly in the Middle East.
Condoleezza Rice
Oh, indeed there is a tie between Iraq and what happened on 9/11. It's not that Saddam Hussein was somehow himself and his regime involved in 9/11, but, if you think about what caused 9/11, it is the rise of ideologies of hatred that lead people to drive airplanes into buildings in New York.
Condoleezza Rice
My Fox guys, I love every single one of them.
Condoleezza Rice
There was no silver bullet that could have prevented the 11 September attacks. There was nothing demonstrating or showing that something was coming in the United States. If there had been something, we would have acted on it.
Condoleezza Rice
Most days are not overwhelmingly successful in your life. And what really marks whether you're going to be successful is how well you deal with the bad days, not how well you deal with the good ones.
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
[My favorite dish to cook] is fried chicken, and by the way I'm good at it, too. I make really good fried chicken.
Condoleezza Rice
I use the word power broadly. Even more important than military and economic power is the power of ideas, the power of compassion, and the power of hope.
Condoleezza Rice
Race is a constant factor in American life. Yet reacting to every incident,real or imagined, is crippling, tiring, and ultimately counterproductive.
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
Self esteem comes from achievements. Not from lax standards and false praise.
