More quotes by John Bolton
Diplomacy is not an end in itself if it does not advance U.S. interests.
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
Reform is not a one-night stand.
John Bolton
Our biggest national security crisis is Barack Obama.
John Bolton
Let me ask, who died and made him king? Who gave him the authority to endanger 300 million Americans? That's not the way it works, and if he thinks he can get away with that, he's got another think coming.
John Bolton
As you know, I have over the years written critically about the U.N. I have consistently stressed in my writings that American leadership is critical to the success of the U.N., an effective U.N., one that is true to the original intent of its charter's framers.
John Bolton
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

John Bolton
Every country has an aspect to it that rubs up people the wrong way.
John Bolton
People say you favor assassination, what do you think war is? Except that it's assassination on a much larger scale, a much more horrific scale.
John Bolton
North Korea is going to get away with keeping its nuclear weapons.
John Bolton
I don't much believe in bumper sticker characterizations of foreign policy.
John Bolton
Swapping Bergdahl for illegal enemy combatants (terrorists, in common parlance) signaled unmistakably to Taliban and al Qaeda that Obama is determined to withdraw from Afghanistan no matter what the cost to the United States or those in Afghanistan fighting to remain free.
John Bolton
I don't think I would have to run a campaign that's financed like General Motors.
John Bolton
Maybe it's my libertarian philosophy: but being in government is hard.
John Bolton
My priority is to give the United States the kind of influence it should have.
John Bolton
I'm not sure history has ended.
John Bolton
A strong State Department to me means a corps of career officials who believe that their job is to advocate America's interests and who are trained in effective advocacy, not schooled in accommodation.
John Bolton
There is no excuse for waste, fraud, and abuse in the Defense Department budget.
John Bolton
We need a strong and effective State Department. We can't conduct American affairs in the world without it.
John Bolton
