More quotes by John Bolton

Image
Maybe it's my libertarian philosophy: but being in government is hard.
John Bolton
Image
My philosophy is not a bean-counting, accounting 'look at this.' It is a philosophy that smaller government is better government, and government that is closer to the people is best of all.
John Bolton
Image
I don't think I would have to run a campaign that's financed like General Motors.
John Bolton
Image
I'm a conservative Republican. I have been since I was 15 years old and participated in the 'Goldwater for President' campaign in 1964.
John Bolton
Image
The European arguments against the Iran-Libya Sanctions Act demonstrate that some Europeans have never lost faith in appeasement as a way of life. It is clear that Iran is cynically manipulating gullible (or equally cynical) Europeans to advance its development of weapons of mass destruction.
John Bolton
Image
I don't much believe in bumper sticker characterizations of foreign policy.
John Bolton

North Korea is going to get away with keeping its nuclear weapons.
John Bolton
Image
I am not a professional politician.
John Bolton

If I were doing the Security Council today, I'd have one permanent member, the United States, because that's the real reflection of the distribution of power in the world. All international laws are invalid, meaningless attempts to constrict American power.
John Bolton
Image
I'm not running around the world looking for ways to create hostilities.
John Bolton
Image
I wouldn't give up on Russia. I think they have legitimate security concerns from Islamic fundamentalism, not only on their border but in their country.
John Bolton
Image
I think some of this fascination with the 'Arab Spring' is just a grand experiment with Israel's survival.
John Bolton
Image
Well, you could take several stories off the buildings of most U.S. government agencies and we'd all probably be better for it too.
John Bolton
Image
You know, as somebody who writes op-eds and appears on the television, I appreciate as well as anybody that…there is a limit to what that accomplishes.
John Bolton
Image
Our biggest national security crisis is Barack Obama.
John Bolton
Image
The Republican Party is the party of national security. There's hardly a national security wing of the Democratic Party anymore. So if we turn away from it, that'll be a big problem.
John Bolton
Image
I've been in the government bureaucracy, I've practiced law, I've done a lot of different things.
John Bolton
Image
There's no such thing as the United Nations.
John Bolton
Image
If Iran obtains nuclear weapons, then almost certainly Saudi Arabia will do the same, as will Egypt, Turkey and perhaps others in the region.
John Bolton
Image
Texas is a big state. It's a major force in the Republican Party.
