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.

More quotes by John Bolton
I'm not sure history has ended.
John Bolton
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
Let there be no ambiguity about the American view that Syria's lack of cooperation .. is not acceptable.
John Bolton
I think it's critical that we return national security issues to the center of the overall political debate in America.
John Bolton
It was right to overthrow Saddam Hussein. It was the regime itself that was a threat. I think in hindsight, what I would have done is turn authority back over to Iraqis much more quickly and say: Your country, you figure out how to run it.
John Bolton
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
Diplomacy is not an end in itself if it does not advance U.S. interests.
John Bolton
Every country has an aspect to it that rubs up people the wrong way.
John Bolton
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
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
Just like Sept. 11, only with nuclear weapons this time, that's the threat. I think that is the threat. I think it's just facing reality. It's not a happy reality, but it's reality and if you don't deal with it, it will become even more unpleasant.
John Bolton
I don't much believe in bumper sticker characterizations of foreign policy.
John Bolton
We need a strong and effective State Department. We can't conduct American affairs in the world without it.
John Bolton
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
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
There is no excuse for waste, fraud, and abuse in the Defense Department budget.
John Bolton
The European Union can now act like a major power, at least that is what the European Union tells us.
John Bolton
There's no doubt that Iran funds and supplies Hamas with weapons.
John Bolton
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
There is no patriotic obligation to help advance the career of a politician who is otherwise pursuing interests that are fundamentally antithetical to your values. That's not the call of patriotism.
John Bolton
