George W. Bush
Wars are fought on objectives, not on timetable, and that's why I've been so insistent upon not allowing ourselves to have policy driven by time table, but by objective.
George W. Bush

George W. Bush
I care what 51 percent of the people think about me.
George W. Bush
I have something else to ask you-to ask every American. I ask for you to pray for this great nation. I ask your prayers for leaders from both parties. I thank you for your prayers for me and my family, and I ask you to pray for Vice President Gore and his family.
George W. Bush
First of all, I don't see America having problems.
George W. Bush

George W. Bush
If you look at my policies they're all aimed at empowering people to make their own decisions.
George W. Bush
The best thing about my family is my wife. She is a great first lady. I know that sounds not very objective, but that's how I feel. And she's also patient. Putting up with me requires a lot of patience.
George W. Bush
I am mindful that we're all sinners.
George W. Bush

George W. Bush
America will never run... And we will always be grateful that liberty has found such brave defenders.
George W. Bush
