More quotes by John F. Kerry
These guys [Republicans] are the most crooked, you know, lying group I've ever seen.
John F. Kerry
We have an electorate that doesn't always pay that much attention to what's going on so people are influenced by a simple slogan rather than the facts or truth or what's happening.
John F. Kerry
My dad was a member of the Greatest Generation that achieved victory in World War II. This was the generation that saved the world from fascism, came home and built the great American middle class, led the way in the civil rights movement, protected our environment, and created great programs like Medicare.
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
The problems of health care can be solved if we stop giving tax cuts to those who have the most, and start making health care affordable for those working harder and harder for too little.
John F. Kerry
What we need to do is raise the minimum wage. We also need to hold onto equal pay. Women work for 76 cents on the dollar for the same work that men do. That's not right in America.
John F. Kerry
We cannot continue to see the Middle East in the context of 9/11. We must see it in the context of 2011.
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
America has everything most countries envy. A Constitution which is the treasure of mankind, a strong military, natural resources of every kind. Above all, as Tocqueville said, a good people, which is what makes us great.
John F. Kerry
The agreement is fundamentally that we want to try to resolve this. The agreement is that ISIL is a threat to everybody, and we need to come together to find a way to fight ISIL. The agreement is that we want to save Syria, keep it unified, keep it secular. So surely in those very fundamental principles on which we could agree.
John F. Kerry
And if [Vladimir Putin] does fight ISIL alone, how does it work out for Russia to have sided with Assad, sided with Iran, sided with Hizballah, when they're trying to reach out to the rest of the Sunni world in the region? That's not a good equation for Russia.
John F. Kerry
What we Americans need to do is respect that incredible blessing that we have as a nation and make sure that we are leading in the best ways possible.
John F. Kerry
We are not interested in a proxy war. Our objective is to change Russia's behavior.
John F. Kerry
I supported Israel 100 percent as a senator for 28 years and I've supported it 100 percent as Secretary of State.
John F. Kerry
I think George Mitchell is a consummate professional. He is the ideal selection to handle the job of special envoy if you choose to have a special envoy.
John F. Kerry
We should not allow a tiny minority of shoddy scientists and science and extreme ideologues to compete with scientific facts.
John F. Kerry
Just the fact that we can't pass budgets in our Congress, just the fact that we are gridlocked in our own democracy, the fact that everybody who travels can see that we're not investing in our airports, in our rail, in our infrastructure and so forth, people are noticing a United States that is not getting the job done in some ways.
John F. Kerry
There are issues of war and peace. And then, there are issues of life and death like this one that are no less morally compelling than war itself.
John F. Kerry
As a public person, I've always tried to reflect what is embodied in our defining ideals as a nation about equality and fairness and justice and so forth.
John F. Kerry
I saw how different life was on different sides of the same city. I saw the fear in the eyes of people who were not free. I saw the gratitude of people toward the United States for all that we had done. I felt goosebumps as I got off a military train and heard the Army band strike up 'Stars and Stripes Forever.'
John F. Kerry
