More quotes by 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
As President, I will not be the last to know what is going on in my command.
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
Our military is overextended. Nine out of 10 active-duty Army divisions are either in Iraq, going to Iraq or have come back from Iraq. One way or the other, they're wrapped up in it.
John F. Kerry
It's one thing to be certain, but you can be certain and you can be wrong.
John F. Kerry
Even as a supporter of Roe v. Wade, I am compelled to acknowledge that the language both sides use on this subject can be unfortunately misleading and unconstructive.... Everyone is worse off for it.
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
After Mitt Romney said it would be naive to go into Pakistan to pursue the terrorists, it took President Obama, against the advice of many, to give that order and finally rid this earth of Osama bin Laden. Ask Osama bin Laden is he is better off now than he was four years ago.
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
I will never cede the authority of our country or our security to any other nation. I'll never give a veto over American security to any other entity - not a nation, not a country, not an institution.
John F. Kerry
I think the United States is still the indispensable force for positive change and for rule of law and for order and structure.
John F. Kerry
I'm proud of my medals. I always was proud of them.
John F. Kerry
Reduce US military presence in Iraq and bring in neighbors.
John F. Kerry
I know that our country is strongest when we lead the world, when we lead strong alliances. And that's the way Eisenhower and Reagan and Kennedy and others did it.
John F. Kerry
We were sent to Vietnam to kill Communism. But we found instead that we were killing women and children.
John F. Kerry
America that has done more to support Israel than any other country cannot be true to our own values if we allow a viable two-state solution to be destroyed before our own eyes.
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
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
I'm not going to put my energy into focusing on things that are hypothetical that we don't know.
John F. Kerry
So we can do a better job of homeland security. I can do a better job of waging a smarter, more effective war on terror and guarantee that we will go after the terrorists. I will hunt them down, and we'll kill them, we'll capture them. We'll do whatever is necessary to be safe.
John F. Kerry
