We want more people owning things in this country. Let me put it to you bluntly: In a changing world, we want more people to have control over your own life.

More quotes by George W. Bush
We spend less time with each other now than we did during the presidency. When you're president, you're usually out and back in the same day - at least I was. I just came from a trip to the Middle East last week, where I was gone for five nights, and when I left, Laura [Bush] was out of town.
George W. Bush
I would have said yes to abortion if only it was right. I mean, yeah it's right. Well no it's not right that's why I said no to it.
George W. Bush
Sometimes when I sleep at night I think of (Dr. Seuss's) 'Hop on Pop.'
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
Reading history while you make history can teach you a lot.
George W. Bush
No, I know all the war rhetoric, but it's all aimed at achieving peace.
George W. Bush
Some of the comments that have been uttered about Islam do not reflect the sentiments of my government or the sentiments of most Americans. Islam, as practiced by the vast majority of people, is a peaceful religion, a religion that respects others. Ours is a country based upon tolerance and we welcome people of all faiths in America.
George W. Bush
History is moving, and it will tend toward hope, or tend toward tragedy.
George W. Bush
I encourage all Americans to express admiration and appreciation to fathers.
George W. Bush
In a time of war, the president must have the power he needs to make the tough decisions, including, if need be, the decision to grant himself even more power.
George W. Bush
People have access to health care in America. After all, you just go to an emergency room.
George W. Bush
The proper response to difficulty is not to retreat. It is to prevail.
George W. Bush
Thank you, your Holiness. Awesome speech.
George W. Bush
The problem is, there was plenty of trash talk during my presidency. A lot.
George W. Bush
It is no accident that the rise of so many democracies took place in a time when the world's most influential nation was itself a democracy.
George W. Bush
I told you I'm not going to criticize my successor. I'll just tell you that there are people at Gitmo that will kill American people at a drop of a hat and I don't believe that persuasion isn't going to work. Therapy isn't going to cause terrorists to change their mind.
George W. Bush
I was the Commander in Chief with men and women in combat. And the idea of trying to agonize in public or show weakness would have demoralized them.
George W. Bush
We don't believe in planners and deciders making the decisions on behalf of Americans.
George W. Bush
From the beginning, I said that Israel, one, has a right to defend herself, but Israel ought to be cautious about how she defends herself. Israel's a democratically elected government. They make decisions on their own sovereignty. It's their decision-making that is what leads to the tactics they chose.
George W. Bush
The wisest use of American strength is to advance freedom.
George W. Bush
