More quotes by 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
We should not allow a tiny minority of shoddy scientists and science and extreme ideologues to compete with scientific facts.
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
You don't value families if you force them to take up a collection to buy body armor for a son or daughter in the service.
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
No one is going to question my commitment to the defence of our nation. I don't know what it is these Republicans, who didn't serve in any war, have against those of us who are Democrats who did.
John F. Kerry

John F. Kerry
When I was in Vietnam I learned a lot about the promises that soldiers make to each other. The Marines have a promise to never leave behind their dead. In this country, as citizen soldiers, we need to make the commitment to each other that we will never leave our veterans behind.
John F. Kerry
Great challenges confront our great nation. We seek to meet them by rising to the task, not by defining our country down.
John F. Kerry
The world has to save Syria. I mean, this has dramatic implications for the entire region, globally.
John F. Kerry
A fundamental premise of politics is we can make this work if people just never figure it out.
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
Patriots don't go to Russia. They don't seek asylum in Cuba. They don't seek asylum in Venezuela. They fight their cause here. Edward Snowden is a coward. He is a traitor. And he has betrayed his country. And if he wants to come home tomorrow to face the music, he can do so.
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
I can tell you, Massachusetts, fastest growing sector of our economy is clean energy and energy efficiency companies. And they're growing faster than any other sector.
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
We must retool our nation to prepare for the challenge we already face to maintain our position in the global economy. And this much is certain: America will not have national security without economic security.
John F. Kerry
