More quotes by John F. Kerry
What we do right now, today, matters.
John F. Kerry
If Saddam Hussein is unwilling to bend to the international community's already existing order, then he will have invited enforcement, even if that enforcement is mostly at the hands of the United States, a right we retain even if the Security Council fails to act.
John F. Kerry
I don't want to claim that God is on our side. As Abraham Lincoln told us, I want to pray humbly that we are on God's side.
John F. Kerry
I'm motivated by my passion for our basic values, protecting our interests, and for protecting the future.
John F. Kerry
You can't play sports without losing sometimes and, in losing, you learn something about grace and how to act under pressure.
John F. Kerry
America now stands as the world's foremost power. We should be proud: Not since the age of the Romans have one people achieved such preeminence. But we are not Romans we do not seek an empire. We are Americans, trustees of a vision and a heritage that commit us to the values of democracy and the universal cause of human rights.
John F. Kerry
At every step of the way, George W. Bush has put the narrow interests of the few ahead of the interests of most Americans.
John F. Kerry
It appears that with the deadline for exile come and gone, Saddam Hussein has chosen to make military force the ultimate weapons inspections enforcement mechanism. If so, the only exit strategy is victory, this is our common mission and the world's cause.
John F. Kerry
Our purpose now is to reclaim democracy itself. We are here to affirm that when Americans stand up and speak their minds and say America can do better, that is not a challenge to patriotism it is the heart and soul of patriotism.
John F. Kerry
From the moment I take office, I will stand up to the special interests and stand with hardworking families so that we can give America back its future and its ideals.
John F. Kerry
You just don't invade another country on phony pretext in order to assert your interests!
John F. Kerry
It's pretty standard fare in political discourse. You misconstrue what somebody said. You isolate a statement, you lend your interpretation to it and then feign moral outrage. And Democrats have been doing it for years.
John F. Kerry
I refuse to stand by while our democracy is trampled by politicians more concerned about amassing power than helping the people who sent them to Washington in the first place.
John F. Kerry
America has an ability to try to make some things happen that other countries don't necessarily have.
John F. Kerry
How do you ask a man to be the last man to die in Vietnam? How do you ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake?
John F. Kerry
I had a chance to talk with President [Vladimir] Putin and he clearly said to me very directly, I will think about that. I will think about this challenge of how we win. Look, this is not easy for Putin. Everybody says, Oh, Putin's made a big move. Well, Putin is [in Syria] now and if he wants to fight ISIL alone, that's a challenge, folks
John F. Kerry
It's hard to believe that in the greatest democracy in the world, we need legislation to prevent the government from writing and paying for the news.
John F. Kerry
You can't have responsibility and you can't have us living up to our ideals unless it's based on a fairly common acceptance of truth, of what is true - what is the truth here?
John F. Kerry
It's likely that people will say we're all interested in destroying - ISIL is a threat to everybody. There isn't one country in the region that doesn't despise what ISIL stands for and is doing and that doesn't want to eliminate them.
John F. Kerry
My friends, that's trickle-down economics, and I believe every worker in America is tired of being trickled on by George W. Bush
