More quotes by George W. Bush
Senator Kerry has been in Washington long enough to take both sides on just about every issue.
George W. Bush
It appears to be a re-run of a bad movie. [Iraqi President Saddam Hussein] is delaying. He's deceiving. He's asking for time. He's playing hide-and-seek with inspectors. One thing is for certain - he's not disarming.
George W. Bush
I don't think you should support the death penalty to seek revenge. I don't think that's right. I think the reason to support the death penalty is because it saves other people's lives.
George W. Bush
I mean, if you've ever been a governor of a state, you understand the vast potential of broadband technology, you understand how hard it is to make sure that physics, for example, is taught in every classroom in the state. It's difficult to do. It's, like, cost-prohibitive.

God told me to smite Osama bin Laden, so I invaded Afghanistan. Then He told me to smite Saddam Hussein, so I invaded Iraq. Now He wants me to work on the Middle East problem.
George W. Bush
We are not at war with the Afghani people, and we are not at war with Islam, which most Americans respect as a religion of peace.
George W. Bush
I think it is a worthy goal in America to have every child protected by law and welcomed in life. I also think we ought to continue to have good adoption law as an alternative to abortion.
George W. Bush
And there is distrust in Washington. I am surprised, frankly, at the amount of distrust that exists in this town. And I'm sorry it's the case, and I'll work hard to try to elevate it.
George W. Bush
Free nations don't develop weapons of mass destruction.
George W. Bush
What ends up happening is people form images and the image they form is, in some ways, what they want it to be. The idea of trying to correct the image is something I'm not interested in doing.
George W. Bush
I think it was in the Rose Garden where I issued this brilliant statement: If I had a magic wand -- but the president doesn't have a magic wand. You just can't say, 'low gas.'
George W. Bush
Democrats didn't agree with policies. How do I know? Because they voted against them when they came up on the floor of the House and the Senate.
George W. Bush
Removing Saddam Hussein was the right decision early in my presidency, it is the right decision now, and it will be the right decision ever.
George W. Bush
Terrorists and their allies believe the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the American Bill of Rights and every charter of liberty ever written are lies to be burned and destroyed and forgotten.
George W. Bush
There's a lot of people in the Middle East who are desirous to get into the Mitchell process. And - but first things first. The - these terrorist acts and, you know, the responses have got to end in order for us to get the framework - the groundwork - not framework, the groundwork to discuss a framework for peace, to lay the - all right.
George W. Bush
On this National Day of Prayer and Remembrance, we ask almighty God to watch over our nation, and grant us patience and resolve in all that is to come. We pray that He will comfort and console those who now walk in sorrow. We thank Him for each life we now must mourn, and the promise of a life to come.
George W. Bush
I have a different vision of leadership. A leadership is someone who brings people together.
George W. Bush
The greatest power of freedom is to overcome hatred and violence, and turn the creative gifts of men and women to the pursuits of peace.
George W. Bush
I have faith, as I did when I announced my stem-cell decision in 2001, that science and ethics can coexist.
George W. Bush
