Know what you're talking about.

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 try to hold my charisma in check.
George H. W. Bush
I have just repeated word for word the oath taken by George Washington 200 years ago, and the Bible on which I placed my hand is the Bible on which he placed his. It is right that the memory of Washington be with us today, not only because this is our Bicentennial Inauguration, but because Washington remains the Father of our Country.
George H. W. Bush
I think in defeat you grope for things that are happy, and it's hard.
George H. W. Bush

George H. W. Bush
International exchanges are not a great tide to sweep away all differences, but they will slowly wear away at the obstacles to peace as surely as water wears away a hard stone.
George H. W. Bush
Now, like, I'm President. It would be pretty hard for some drug guy to come into the White House and start offering it up, you know?...I bet if they did, I hope I would say, 'Hey, get lost. We don't want any of that.'
George H. W. Bush
We have had triumphs, we have made mistakes, we have had sex.
George H. W. Bush
We know what works: freedom works. We know what's right: freedom is right. We know how to secure a more and just and prosperous life for man on earth: through free markets, free speech, free elections and the exercise of free will unhampered by the state.
George H. W. Bush
There are singular moments in history, dates that divide all that goes before from all that comes after.
George H. W. Bush
It's amazing how many people beat you at golf now that you're no longer president.
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.
