Those who make war against the United States have chosen their own destruction.

When you're writing about something that happened, it helps you transition to the present.

I think it's very important for people who are serving (in office) to make sure there's a separation of church and state.

Our Nation's founding commitment is still our deepest commitment: In our world, and here at home, we will extend the frontiers of freedom.

No matter how tough Iraq became, removing Saddam Hussein was the right thing to do for the sake of peace and for the 25 million people we liberated.

Any sign that says we're going to leave Iraq before the job is done simply emboldens terrorists and creates a certain amount of doubt for people, so they won't take the risk necessary to help a civil society evolve in the country.

I'm comfortable with how I lived my life as the president.
