More quotes by Wesley Clark
Nothing is going to hurt this country - not bioweapons, not a nuclear weapon, not a terrorist strike - there is nothing that can hurt us if we stay united and move together and have a vision for moving to the future the right way.
Wesley Clark
I have grown up with guns all my life, but people who like assault weapons they should join the United States Army, we have them.
Wesley Clark
I like Hilary Clinton. I think she's - she's a fantastic leader.
Wesley Clark
Well, I don't think riding in a fighter plane and getting shot down is a qualification to be president.
Wesley Clark
It 's really hard to impose democracy. It has to emerge naturally. You have to get out of the way and let it happen.
Wesley Clark
You have to take a plan that might work and make it work
Wesley Clark
One of the principles that we operate on in this country is that leaders are held accountable. The simple truth is that we went into Iraq on the basis of some intuition, some fear, and some exaggerated rhetoric and some very, very scanty evidence.
Wesley Clark
Imagine a world in which we saw beyond the lines that divide us, and celebrated our differences, instead of hiding from them. Imagine a world in which we finally recognized that, fundamentally, we are all the same. And imagine if we allowed that new understanding to build relations between people and between nations.
Wesley Clark
War creates its own intensity of hatred... You don't want to use force except as an absolute last resort.
Wesley Clark
The truth is, about the Middle East is, had there been no oil there, it would be like Africa. Nobody is threatening to intervene in Africa.
Wesley Clark
Global warming is a matter of national security. Will we live in a world where we must fight our neighbors for fresh water and food? Or will we take the lead now and leave to our children and grandchildren a world better off than the one we inherited from our parents?
Wesley Clark
Anyone who tells you that one political party has a monopoly on the best defense of our nation is committing a fraud on the American people.
Wesley Clark
It's important. One of the principles in the United States is civilian control of the military.
Wesley Clark
President George Bush had the courage and the vision and we will always be grateful to President George Bush for that tremendous leadership and statesmanship.
Wesley Clark
You have to be true to what you believe in and do your duty.
Wesley Clark
I don't think it's patriotic to put on a flight suit and prance around on the deck of an aircraft carrier looking for a photo op. We have a president of the United States who did not do his duty to take care of America. If you're patriotic, you do your duty.
Wesley Clark
Working together, we can build a world in which the rule of law - not the rule of force - governs relations between states. A world in which leaders respect the rights of their people, and nations seek peace, not destruction or domination. And neither we nor anyone else should live in fear ever again.
Wesley Clark
Well, it came from the White House, it came from people around the White House. It came from all over. I got a call on 9/11. I was on CNN, and I got a call at my home saying, 'You got to say this is connected. This is state-sponsored terrorism. This has to be connected to Saddam Hussein.
Wesley Clark
I tremendously admire, and I think we all should, the great work done by our commander in chief, our president George Bush...
Wesley Clark
Maybe it's because I've never been in politics, but I don't believe that America is run by politicians in Washington. I believe it's run by people like us, in places like this.
Wesley Clark
