No war on the face of the Earth is more destructive than the AIDS pandemic.

One of the most worrisome things that emerges from the thick intelligence file we have on Iraq's biological weapons is the existence of mobile production facilities used to make biological agents.

Great leaders are those who are able to look reality in the face, however painful it may be, and deal with it.

You can't get it all done yourself. The best leaders are not afraid of picking people who are better than they are and who may one day replace them.

Our strategy in going after this army is very simple. First we are going to cut it off, and then we are going to kill it.

Actually, there is no more important task for a leader than to pick people. To make sure you have the very best people working for you.
