More quotes by Condoleezza Rice
You do have to keep in mind as you're going through extraordinarily difficult circumstances, that if you stay true, true to your values, if you stay true to your principles, if you believe in these values, then you can work in that context to right policies that may not be working.
Condoleezza Rice
As secretary of state it's been an enormous honor to represent this great country that I love so much - I have really seen that our great strengths are in the ability of people to reach their potential here.
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'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
I love to watch football.I actually really love to watch almost any competition with a score at the end.
Condoleezza Rice
There are some places that have had real quarrels with the United States' policies, but I think the country is very well-respected worldwide.
Condoleezza Rice
There's no doubt that it's still a dangerous place, Afghanistan. The fortunate thing is that the United States was helping to provide security for Chairman Karzai. And it shows that the United States is committed to that regime.
Condoleezza Rice
I firmly believe you never should spend your time being the former anything.
Condoleezza Rice
This is not 1968 and the invasion of Czechoslovakia, where Russia can threaten its neighbors, occupy a capital, overthrow a government, and get away with it. Things have changed.
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
Differences can be a strength.
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
Success is not assured, but America is resolute: this is the best chance for peace we are likely to see for some years to come - and we are acting to help Israelis and Palestinians seize this chance.
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
U.S. officials never expected that 'we were going to open garages and find' weapons of mass destruction.
Condoleezza Rice
I'm actually genuinely optimistic about the United States and what's possible in the United States. And when you're out here, you see Americans across racial and economic and socioeconomic lines working together. 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
Now, al Qaeda's on the run. Afghanistan is no longer a base of operations. The Afghan government is a friendly government that is trying to bring democracy to its people.
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
There is nothing better than being in a classroom with really, really brilliant students, and opening up new worlds to them. That's what I love doing.
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.
