Our military superiority is so great - it's far greater than it was in the Gulf War, and the Gulf War was over in 100 hours after we bombed for 43 days. And so now they can bomb for a couple of days and then just roll into Baghdad... The odds are there's going to be a war and it's going to be not for very long.
William J. Clinton
In a world with no systems, with chaos, everything becomes a guerilla struggle, and this predictability is not there. And it becomes almost impossible to save lives, educate kids, develop economies, whatever.
William J. Clinton
There is no longer a clear, bright line dividing America's domestic concerns and America's foreign policy concerns...If we want America to stay on the right track, if we want other people to be on that track and have the chance to enjoy peace and prosperity, we have no choice but to try to lead the train.
William J. Clinton
America can no longer afford to get the Nobel Prizes while our competitors get the profits.
William J. Clinton
It was Mario Cuomo's great gift and our good fortune that he was both a sterling orator and a passionate public servant. His life was a blessing.

In the new economy, information, education, and motivation are everything.
William J. Clinton
No one who has lived through the second half of the 20th century could possibly be blind to the enormous impact of exchange programs on the future of countries.
William J. Clinton
You cannot have an integrated world and have your say all the time. America can lead the world towards that, but we cannot dominate and run the world in that direction. There is a big difference.
William J. Clinton
Profound and powerful forces are shaking and remaking our world. And the urgent question of our time is whether we can make change our friend and not our enemy.
William J. Clinton
Globalisation is not something that we can hold off or turn off. It is the economic equivalent of a force of nature, like wind or water.
William J. Clinton
The first thing I had to start with was, you know, we don't have a war. We don't have a depression, we don't have a Cold War.
William J. Clinton
Food is a big bargain in America, and you can go to these places, we all like them, and you get big portions, and they taste good. But they're higher in fat than ever before. And same thing has happened, by the way, though, to school menus. A lot of school lunch menus have more fat and more sugar than ever before.
William J. Clinton
America's greatness depends on the ability of its citizens to make the most of their lives. Americans with disabilities are an enormous, often untapped reservoir of that potential.
William J. Clinton
It takes a long time to turn a big country around. Just be of good cheer and keep working on it.
William J. Clinton
Considering the current sad state of our computer programs, software development is clearly still a black art, and cannot yet be called an engineering discipline.
William J. Clinton
I recently spoke with Barbara Jordan of the U.S. Commission on Immigration Reform, and I increasingly believe we need a system to verify employment eligibility. The Commission's recommendation of a national registry may be the way to go.
William J. Clinton
What you earn depends on what you learn.
William J. Clinton
People ought to be going over this, finding things they don't like. Congress has clearly proved they can act in a hurry. If there's something wrong with it, it can be amended. If something needs to be kicked in, it can be put in. If something needs to be taken out, it can be taken out.
William J. Clinton
Strength and wisdom are not opposing values.
