Rarely has a U.S. president been so wrong about so much at the expense of so many.

I think they're in the last throes, if you will, of the insurgency.

The Iraqi forces are conducting the Mother of all Retreats.

It is easy to take liberty for granted, when you have never had it taken from you.

Had the decision belonged to Senator Kerry, Saddam Hussein would still be in power today in Iraq. In fact, Saddam Hussein would almost certainly still be in control of Kuwait.

I worship the ground Paul Ryan walks on.

Simply stated, there is no doubt that Saddam Hussein now has weapons of mass destruction. There is no doubt he is amassing them to use against our friends, against our allies, and against us.

From kindergarten to graduation, I went to public schools, and I know that they are a key to being sure that every child has a chance to succeed and to rise in the world.

Except for the occasional heart attack, I never felt better.

There can be no god without desire.

I played recorder in assembly, then I became passionate about the guitar, I don't know why. I started on electric then moved to acoustic - my brother was playing bass in the next room.

There is no such thing as a miracle. A miracle is just what somebody else doesn't understand. If we went back into the Stone Age and we lit a match, they'd say, "Ahh miracla, miracla!"

I don't tap dance, and I don't think you can learn to tap dance in three weeks at my ripe old age.

'Wiseguy' for its time was good. It was really good. And it holds up still. But a lot of the restraints have been taken off now.

Well, you know, I am in the business and I like to promote myself.

Give a man a reputation as an early riser and he can sleep 'til noon.

Along my journey / through this transitory world, / new year's housecleaning.
