More quotes by John F. Kerry
The military's job is to win the war. A president's job is to win the peace.
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
And it is time for those who talk about family values to start valuing families.
John F. Kerry
Climate change is real. The science is compelling. And the longer we wait, the harder the problem will be to solve.
John F. Kerry
We spent a fair amount of time on Ukraine. And I think there's a path that we discussed that we will follow up on in order to try to resolve some of the outstanding issues in order to fully implement Minsk.
John F. Kerry
We will fight anyone who wishes to impose a totalitarian system upon a free society, and we will always prevail. But we will not do so with a fear-stricken administration which seeks to deprive us of freedoms in the name of 'defending' us from the terrorists, who also seek to deprive us of our freedoms.
John F. Kerry
I'm glad the President finally found an economic development program. I'm just sad that it's only in Baghdad.
John F. Kerry
It's hard to say that something is legitimate when a whole portion of the country can't vote and doesn't vote.
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
Palestinians need to stop the incitement. They need to stop that kind of activity. But at the same time, there is a need to see the broader conflict here and understand that there has to be some kind of ultimately negotiated political track that's going to resolve the difference between Palestinians and Israelis.
John F. Kerry
I think it was the right decision to disarm Saddam Hussein. And when the president made the decision, I supported him, and I support the fact that we did disarm him.
John F. Kerry
So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real.
John F. Kerry
I voted to threaten the use of force to make Saddam Hussein comply with the resolutions of the United Nations.
John F. Kerry
I mean, all of these things that [Bashar Assad] has done, there's no way even if President Obama wanted to just play along that you could actually achieve peace, because there are 65 million Sunni in between Baghdad and the border of Turkey, Syria, and Iraq, who will never, ever again accept Assad as a member - as a legitimate leader.
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
I'm fascinated by rap and by hip-hop. I think there's a lot of poetry in it. There's a lot of anger, a lot of social energy in it. And I think you'd better listen to it pretty carefully, 'cause it's important.
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
I believe it is both unwise and even wrong to interfere in the affairs of other nations. Indeed, if we are honest, we will see that this is one of the reasons for 9-11.
John F. Kerry
A fundamental premise of politics is we can make this work if people just never figure it out.
John F. Kerry
President Clinton was often known as the first black president. I wouldn't be upset if I could earn the right to be the second.
John F. Kerry
