More quotes by John Bolton
Diplomacy is not an end in itself if it does not advance U.S. interests.
John Bolton
If you get a President (Hillary) Clinton, you might well find, just as after Vietnam, that there is a retraction from Iraq and of American influence in the world. And in a couple of years the Europeans will be complaining about that too.
John Bolton
The European Union can now act like a major power, at least that is what the European Union tells us.
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
Let there be no ambiguity about the American view that Syria's lack of cooperation .. is not acceptable.
John Bolton
We need a strong and effective State Department. We can't conduct American affairs in the world without it.
John Bolton
I think some of this fascination with the 'Arab Spring' is just a grand experiment with Israel's survival.
John Bolton

Obama sees America as another country on the UN role call. Somewhere between Albania and Zimbabwe.
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
Maybe it's my libertarian philosophy: but being in government is hard.
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
Everybody pursues their national interests. The only one who gets blamed for it is the United States.
John Bolton
My priority is to give the United States the kind of influence it should have.
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
