Having purpose. I had purpose during my presidency, and I've got purpose after my presidency.
George W. Bush
The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa.
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
I think for Laura [Bush] it was kind of a sense of remorse because she is very close to the girls. They're busy little souls, and so we don't see them as much as we'd like to. But Laura talks to them all the time.
George W. Bush
I was also fortunate that I was raised in a part of the world, West Texas, where individualism is strong.
George W. Bush
I worry about protectionists, which is another way of saying less competition, less trade around the world. And I view those as twins of negativity.
George W. Bush
We will fight with full force and might of the United States military.
George W. Bush
Many people are coming to this country for economic reasons. They're coming here to work. If you can make 50 cents in the heart of Mexico, for example, or make $5 here in America, $5.15, you're going to come here if you're worth your salt, if you want to put food on the table for your families. And that's what's happening.
George W. Bush
Our enemies are a radical network of terrorists - and every government that supports them.
George W. Bush
Sometimes I'm frustrated. Rarely surprised. Sometimes I'm happy, you know. But war is not a time of joy.
George W. Bush
There ought to be limits to freedom.
George W. Bush
I don't know where [Osama bin Laden] is. You know, I just don't spend that much time on him, to be honest with you. I'm more worried about making sure that our soldiers are well supplied, that the strategy is clear, that the coalition is strong.
George W. Bush
You teach a child to read, and he or her will be able to pass a literacy test.
George W. Bush
I do not believe the promises of the Declaration of Independence are just for the strong, the independent, the healthy. They are for everyone-including unborn children. We are a society with enough compassion and wealth and love to care for both mothers and their children, to seek the promise and potential in every life.
George W. Bush
When I was coming up, it was a dangerous world, and you knew exactly who they were. It was us vs them, and it was clear who them was. Today, we are not so sure who the they are, but we know they're there.
George W. Bush
The threat from Iran is, of course, their stated objective to destroy our strong ally Israel. That's a threat, a serious threat. It's a threat to world peace it's a threat, in essence, to a strong alliance. I made it clear, I'll make it clear again, that we will use military might to protect our ally, Israel.
George W. Bush
[Strong marriage] starts with being married to a remarkable person. And I am. I jokingly say that I stood up in front of a crowd once and said, Laura's the greatest first lady ever, and then realized my mother was in the audience.
George W. Bush
There's been shock waves sent throughout all parts of the nation's economic fabric.
George W. Bush
I inherited half my father's friends and all his enemies
George W. Bush
I want everybody to hear loud and clear that I'm going to be the president of everybody.
George W. Bush
