I'm conservative, but I'm not a nut about it.
Our nation must come together to unite.
I am mindful not only of preserving executive powers for myself, but for predecessors as well.
You teach a child to read, and he or her will be able to pass a literacy test.
We must all hear the universal call to like your neighbor just like you like to be liked yourself.
I have a different vision of leadership. A leadership is someone who brings people together.
I mean, there needs to be a wholesale effort against racial profiling, which is illiterate children.
Leadership to me means duty, honor, country. It means character, and it means listening from time to time.
In my sentences I go where no man has gone before.
One of the common denominators I have found is that expectations rise above that which is expected.
The most important job is not to be governor, or first lady in my case.
There's not going to be enough people in the system to take advantage of people like me.
We are ready for any unforeseen event which may or may not happen.
They want the federal government controlling Social Security like it's some kind of federal program.
I appreciate that question because I, in the state of Texas, had heard a lot of discussion about a faith-based initiative eroding the important bridge between church and state.
For every fatal shooting, there were roughly three non-fatal shootings. And, folks, this is unacceptable in America. It's just unacceptable. And we're going to do something about it.
This administration is doing everything we can to end the stalemate in an efficient way. We're making the right decisions to bring the solution to an end.
One of the great things about books is sometimes there are some fantastic pictures.
Should any Iraqi officer or soldier receive an order from Saddam Hussein.... don't follow that order. Because if you choose to do so, when Iraq is liberated, you will be treated, tried and persecuted as a war criminal. [1/22/03]
The law I sign today directs new funds and new focus to the task of collecting vital intelligence on terrorist threats and on weapons of mass production. [11/27/2002]
A lame duck session, for people who don't know what that means, it means the Senate is coming and the House is coming back between now and Christmas and they've got a few days to get some big things done. [11/7/2002]
I was proud the other day when both Republicans and Democrats stood with me in the Rose Garden to announce their support for a clear statement of purpose, "You disarm, or we will." [10/5/2002]
If you find a neighbor in need, you're responsible for serving that neighbor in need, you're responsible for loving a neighbor just like you'd like to love yourself. [11/16/2002]
There's only one person who hugs the mothers and the widows, the wives and the kids upon the death of their loved one. Others hug but having committed the troops, I've got an additional responsibility to hug and that's me and I know what it's like. [12/13/2002]
I mentioned early on that I recognize there are hurdles, and we're going to achieve those hurdles. [1/22/2003]
People that are really very weird can get into sensitive positions and have a tremendous impact on history.
The administration I'll bring is a group of men and women who are focused on what's best for America, honest men and women, decent men and women, women who will see service to our country as a great privilege and who will not stain the house.
It's clearly a budget. It's got a lot of numbers in it.

There's an old saying in Tennessee -- I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee...that says, fool me once, shame on...shame on you. Fool me...you can't get fooled again. [9/17/2002]
As governor of Texas, I have set high standards for our public schools, and I have met those standards.
