More quotes by George W. Bush
I think that there are certain principles which should guide decision-making for a president. One such principle was that we're all God's children, and every life is precious. To me, that's a moral statement.
George W. Bush
I have said that the sanction regime is like Swiss cheese - that meant that they weren't very effective.
George W. Bush
I've got God's shoulder to cry on. And I cry a lot. I do a lot of crying in this job. I'll bet I've shed more tears than you can count, as president.

It is clear our nation is reliant upon big foreign oil. More and more of our imports come from overseas.

My job is to make sure that, as President, people understand that in this country you can worship any way you choose. And I'll take that a step further. You can be a patriot if you don't believe in the Almighty. You can honor your country and be as patriotic as your neighbor.
George W. Bush
I don't make any apologies for what I do on the campaign trail.
George W. Bush
If we're an arrogant nation, they'll resent us.
George W. Bush
I told all four [Congressional leaders] that there are going to be some times where we don't agree with each other, but that's OK. If this were a dictatorship, it would be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I'm the dictator.
George W. Bush
Our Nation must defend the sanctity of marriage.
George W. Bush
I'm the master of low expectations.

I would like to remembered as President as somebody who did not compromise principles in order to try to be loved or liked.

George W. Bush
It's your money. You paid for it.
George W. Bush
There's this kind of almost - kind of a weird kind of elitism that says well maybe - maybe certain people in certain parts of the world shouldn't be free maybe it's best just to let them sit in these tyrannical societies. And our foreign policy rejects that concept. And we don't accept it. And so we're working.
George W. Bush
Russia is no longer our enemy and therefore we shouldn't be locked into a Cold War mentality that says we keep the peace by blowing each other up. In my attitude, that's old, that's tired, that's stale.
George W. Bush
Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.
George W. Bush
