I would have my secretary of treasury be in touch with the financial centers, not only here but at home.
Well, that's going to be up to the pundits and the people to make up their mind. I'll tell you what is a president for him, for example, talking about my record in the state of Texas. I mean, he's willing to say anything in order to convince people that I haven't had a good record in Texas.
I am a person who recognizes the fallacy of humans.
The woman who knew that I had dyslexia - I never interviewed her.
They have miscalculated me as a leader.
I want to make it clear to people that the idea of putting subliminable messages into ads is ridiculous.
Conspiracy theories abound in American politics. I don't think we need to be subliminable about the differences between our views on prescription drugs.
This is what I'm good at. I like meeting people, my fellow citizens, I like interfacing with them.
That's Washington. That's the place where you find people getting ready to jump out of the foxholes before the first shot is fired.
Listen, Al Gore is a very tough opponent. He is the incumbent. He represents the incumbency. And a challenger is somebody who generally comes from the pack and wins, if you're going to win. And that's where I'm coming from.
I regret that a private comment I made to the vice presidential candidate made it through the public airways.
I worry about a culture that devalues life and believe as your president I have an important obligation to foster and encourage respect for life in America and throughout the world.
My God, the man is a fascist - a fascist, I tell you.
And there is distrust in Washington. I am surprised, frankly, at the amount of distrust that exists in this town. And I'm sorry it's the case, and I'll work hard to try to elevate it.

Some of you in this room support higher taxes. I welcome your enthusiasm and am glad to report that the IRS takes both money orders and checks.
We are a caring nation, and our values should also guide us on how we harness the gifts of science. New medical breakthroughs bring the hope of cures for terrible diseases and treatments that can improve the lives of millions. Our challenge is to make sure that science serves the cause of humanity instead of the other way around.
We reflect on what has been lost and comfort those enduring a profound grief. And somehow we know that a brighter morning will come.
I have made education a top priority of this Administration because when we get it right, when every child learns, America will be a more hopeful place.

Our nation is somewhat sad, but we're angry. There's a certain level of blood lust, but we won't let it drive our reaction. We're steady, clear-eyed and patient, but pretty soon we'll have to start displaying scalps.
These people are trying to shake the will of the Iraqi citizens, and they want us to leave...I think the world would be better off if we did leave.
We spent a lot of time talking about Africa, as we should. Africa is a nation that suffers from incredible disease.
I am here to make an announcement that this Thursday, ticket counters and airplanes will fly out of Ronald Reagan Airport.
I think I was unprepared for war.
