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
Old fashioned as it may seem to some, it is my duty to serve my country. And I didn't seek this job but I want to do it, and I will do my very best.
George H. W. Bush
Be bold in your caring, and be bold in your dreaming.
George H. W. Bush
We consider it vital that the community of nations be drawn together in an orderly, disciplined, rational way to review the history of our global environment, to assess the potential for future climate change, and to develop effective programs.
George H. W. Bush

George H. W. Bush
Don't try to fine-tune somebody else's view.
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
I think the major event that shaped my life was being a Naval aviator. I got my commission and wings at 18 years old, and then I went into combat at 19. And I think, as I look back on it, that whole experience probably shaped my life more than any incident, or any event.
George H. W. Bush
We have had triumphs, we have made mistakes, we have had sex.
George H. W. Bush
I don't worry about superpower confrontation. You know, I lived through the Cold War days, and where everybody was worried about a Soviet Union armed to the teeth. I think we're going to get along fine with Russia, and I don't see them as internationally ambitious.
George H. W. Bush
It's a very good question, very direct, and I'm not going to answer it.
George H. W. Bush
I got poked in the left eye on the collision. My vision is blurry in that eye. I had to play. It was for coach, and because it was a district game.
George H. W. Bush
If the American people knew what we have done, they would string us up from the lamp posts.
George H. W. Bush
But let me tell you, this gender thing is history. You're looking at a guy who sat down with Margaret Thatcher across the table and talked about serious issues.
George H. W. Bush
Think about every problem, every challenge, we face. The solution to each starts with education.
George H. W. Bush
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
When I need a little advice about Saddam Hussein, I turn to country music.
George H. W. Bush
I think in defeat you grope for things that are happy, and it's hard.
George H. W. Bush
The only time I had any butterflies was when I stood up and backed toward the open door and looked down.
George H. W. Bush
