“My job is a decision-making job, and as a result, I make a lot of decisions.”

“The most important job is not to be governor, or first lady in my case.”

“One of the hardest parts of my job is to connect Iraq to the war on terror. ”

“When I take action, I'm not going to fire a $2 million missile at a $10 empty tent and hit a camel in the butt. It's going to be decisive.”

“Those who based decisions on principle, not some snapshot of public opinion, were often vindicated over time.”

“I think if you know what you believe, it makes it a lot easier to answer questions. I can't answer your question”
