George W. Bush
The most important need is to have a steady hand at the wheel, one which does not deviate from its purpose depending on which way the wind blows. The task of keeping America safe and secure in an uncertain world falls heavily on the president.
George W. Bush

George W. Bush
There is a huge trust. I see it all the time when people come up to me and say, 'I don't want you to let me down again.' - Boston, Mass., Oct. 3, 2000
George W. Bush
Everywhere that freedom stirs, let tyrants fear.
George W. Bush
Nobody really likes to be lectured a lot. And, therefore, if you want to be an effective person, what you don't do is scold the person publicly all the time.
George W. Bush
There ought to be limits to freedom. We're aware of the site, and this guy is just a garbage man.
George W. Bush
You can't put democracy and freedom back into a box.
