More quotes by George H. W. Bush
I think when you see an aircraft fire, these angry, black puffs of smoke, knowing that one of them could kill you that you - you - you understand the seriousness of the mission. And you understand your own mortality.
George H. W. Bush
The world can therefore seize the opportunity (the Persian Gulf crisis) to fulfill the long held promise of a New World Order where diverse nations are drawn together in common cause to achieve the universal aspirations of mankind.
George H. W. Bush
We have ...drawn a line in the sand.
George H. W. Bush
I like a colorful sock. I'm a sock man.
George H. W. Bush
We know what works. Freedom Works. We know what's right. Freedom is right.

Education is not complete unless we teach our children not only how to read and write but the difference between right and wrong.
George H. W. Bush
Now we can see a new world coming into view, a world where there is a very real prospect of a New World Order.
George H. W. Bush
I worry about international terror as a method for bringing about political change or sociological change in different countries. And this concerns me because our homeland is not - we see now, is not immune from this kind of dastardly attack. And so I worry about that a lot.
George H. W. Bush
I remember when I was shot down in that war. I remember how terrified I was. And it made me feel close to my family, and to God, and to life, and I was scared.
George H. W. Bush
Time and again in this century, the political map of the world was transformed. And ineach instance a new world order came about through the advent of a new tyrant or the outbreak of a bloody global war, or its end.
George H. W. Bush
I think I'd be a better president because I was in combat.
George H. W. Bush
The United States will continue its efforts to improve our understanding of climate change - to seek hard data, accurate models, and new ways to improve the science - and determine how best to meet these tremendous challenges.
George H. W. Bush
Abraham Lincoln truly inspired me. It wasn’t just the freeing of the slaves, he kept the Union together. Some people even forget that today. What I think inspired me was the fact that in spite of being the president of the United States he retained a certain down-to-earth quality. He never got to be a big shot, and he cared about people.
George H. W. Bush
There are truckloads of broccoli at this very minute descending on Washington. My family is divided. For the broccoli vote out there: Barbara loves broccoli. She has tried to make me eat it. She eats it all the time herself. So she can go out and meet the caravan of broccoli that's coming in.
George H. W. Bush
It is possible to tell things by a handshake. I like the looking in the eye syndrome. It conveys interest. I like the firm, though not bone crushing shake. The bone crusher is trying too hard to macho it. The clammy or diffident handshake - fairly or unfairly - get me off to a bad start with a person.
George H. W. Bush
I know my serve stinks, but I was a pretty good tennis player.
George H. W. Bush
It's not whether people like you but whether they share the bright dreams...and understand the heartbeat of the country.
George H. W. Bush
From last night's All Together Now, a Celebration of Service: There can be no definition of a successful life that does not include service to others.
George H. W. Bush
America's freedom is the example to which the world expires.
George H. W. Bush
This is a fact: Strength in the pursuit of peace is no vice isolation in the pursuit of security is no virtue.
George H. W. Bush
