Madeleine Albright
No one has done what Saddam Hussein has done, or is thinking of doing. He is producing weapons of mass destruction, and he is qualitatively and quantitatively different from other dictators.
Madeleine Albright
The world would be entirely different if it were run by women.

But anybody who says that the world would be better has forgotten high school. It depends on who the women are.
Madeleine Albright
