More quotes by 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
Our stewardship of the Earth is brief. We owe it to those who follow to keep that in perspective, to be responsible passengers along the way.
George H. W. Bush
A time of historic change is no time for recklessness.
George H. W. Bush
Out of these troubled times, our fifth objective - a New World Order - can emerge. . . Now, we can see a New World Order coming into view. A world in which there is a very real prospect for a New World Order. . .A world where the United Nations, freed from a Cold War stalemate, is poised to fulfill the historic vision of its founders.
George H. W. Bush
There are things we can do to give us a little more attention.... I've got to look more frantic.
George H. W. Bush
A new breeze is blowing--and a nation refreshed by freedom stands ready to push on: there is new ground to be broken, and new action to be taken.
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
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
Somebody said, Well, you're going to write your definitive book about your life, biography. No, I'm not. I haven't done that. I wrote a book of letters which gives an insight into the real me as opposed to the public perceptions of me. But I'm convinced historians will figure out the things we got wrong and hopefully the things we got right.
George H. W. Bush
I've often thought that the process of aging could be slowed down if it had to go through Congress.
George H. W. Bush
We know what works. Freedom Works. We know what's right. Freedom is right.
George H. W. Bush
When I need a little advice about Saddam Hussein, I turn to country music.
George H. W. Bush
Equality begins with economic empowerment.
George H. W. Bush
The world also remains a hopeful place. Calls for democracy and human rights are being reborn everywhere, and these calls are an expression of support for the values enshrined in the United Nations Charter. They encourage our hopes for a more stable, more peaceful, more prosperous world.
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
We have had triumphs, we have made mistakes, we have had sex.
George H. W. Bush
Any definition of a successful life must include service to others.
George H. W. Bush
We're enjoying sluggish times, and not enjoying them very much.
George H. W. Bush
I have spoken of a thousand points of light, of all the community organizations that are spread like stars throughout the Nation, doing good.
George H. W. Bush
You got to wrestle with your conscience. You got to listen to people. It doesn't come so easy to me that this is right and that's wrong. It's never that simple.
George H. W. Bush
