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.

More quotes by Condoleezza Rice
There have been plenty of markers that show that this [Iraq] is a country that is worth the investment, because once it emerges as a country that is a stabilising factor, you will have a very different kind of 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
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
Your passion may be hard to spot, so keep an open mind and keep searching.
Condoleezza Rice
Iran can and should be a responsible state, not the leading state sponsor of terror.
Condoleezza Rice
I love to watch football.I actually really love to watch almost any competition with a score at the end.
Condoleezza Rice
I have constantly told people that I was Secretary of State and I was not going to get into a partisan debate. And I would vote my ballot in a secret way, as all Americans do. But I just want to acknowledge that after the election took place, it was a special time for Americans.
Condoleezza Rice
I believe our Presidents work hard and it's the loneliest job in the world.
Condoleezza Rice
I think that the United States has always been most effective when it is leading both from power and principle.
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
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
Race is a constant factor in American life. Yet reacting to every incident,real or imagined, is crippling, tiring, and ultimately counterproductive.
Condoleezza Rice
It's bad policy to speculate on what you'll do if a plan fails when you're trying to make a plan work.
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
Punish France, ignore Germany, and forgive Russia.
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
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
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
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.
