I think leadership is both a trained thing and a natural gift.

Look at the world. There is no pure competitor to the United States of America.

There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.

So like any football or basketball coach, you always always believe you're going to win.

He (Saddam Hussein) has not developed any significant capability with respect to weapons of mass destruction. He is unable to project conventional power against his neighbours.

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.

The one thing the terrorists cannot do -- not one of them, not 10 of them, not 10,000 of them -- they cannot change who we are.
