More quotes by George W. Bush
I hear a lot of talk about civil war. I'm concerned about that, of course. And I've talked to a lot of people about it. And what I've found from my talks are that the Iraqis want a unified country and that the Iraqi leadership is determined to thwart the efforts of the extremists and the radicals.
George W. Bush
We will make no distinction between the terrorists who committed these acts and those who harbour them.
George W. Bush
I don't remember debates. I don't think we spent a lot of time debating it. Maybe we did, but I don't remember.
George W. Bush
A lot of times in the rhetoric, people forget the facts. And the facts are that thousands of small businesses-Hispanically owned or otherwise-pay taxes at the highest marginal rate.

Health care costs are on the rise because the consumers are not involved in the decision-making process. Most health care costs are covered by third parties. And therefore, the actual user of health care is not the purchaser of health care. And there's no market forces involved with health care.
George W. Bush
Our law enforcement must have every tool necessary to find and disrupt terrorists at home and abroad. That's the task of the 21st century.
George W. Bush
The Iraqis needed to know that we weren't going to leave them alone. No matter how difficult it was, the United States would help them realize the universal desire to be free. Now of course, if you didn't believe in the universality of freedom, then of course, you wouldn't act. I care how they live and I believe a free Iraq will be transformative.
George W. Bush
Our nation is somewhat sad, but we're angry. There's a certain level of blood lust, but we won't let it drive our reaction. We're steady, clear-eyed and patient, but pretty soon we'll have to start displaying scalps.
George W. Bush
Our nation must defend the sanctity of marriage. The outcome of this debate is important-and so is the way we conduct it. The same moral tradition that defines marriage also teaches that each individual has dignity and value in God's sight.
George W. Bush
I talked to my little brother, Jeb - I haven't told this to many people. But he's the governor of - I shouldn't call him my little brother - my brother, Jeb, the great Governor of Texas.
George W. Bush
Get ready if the Democrats take the House, your taxes are going up.
George W. Bush
With a new national commitment, our scientists and engineers will overcome obstacles to taking these [hydrogen fuel cell] cars from laboratory to showroom, so that the first car driven by a child born today could be powered by hydrogen, and pollution-free.
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
These people are trying to shake the will of the Iraqi citizens, and they want us to leave...I think the world would be better off if we did leave.
George W. Bush
I kind of like to look at the ranch on Google, reminds me of where I want to be sometimes.
George W. Bush
In the face of all this evil, we remain strong and united, 'One Nation Under God.'
George W. Bush
We shouldn't fear a world that is more interacted.
George W. Bush
I've been trying to tame our press corps ever since I got into politics, and I've failed miserably. They get to express their opinions sometimes in the form of news.
George W. Bush
[Saddam] built up a massive war machine while neglecting the basic needs of his own people.
George W. Bush
I believe that democracy will prevail, so long as the United States stays with these young democracies to help them.
