America was targeted for attack because we're the brightest beacon for freedom and opportunity in the world, and no one will keep that light from shining.

I am a person who recognizes the fallacy of humans.

I am mindful that we're all sinners.

And I strongly support the faith-based initiative that we're proposing, because I don't believe it violates the line between the separation of church and state, and I believe it's going to make America a better place.

But I also made it clear to him [Vladimir Putin] that it's important to think beyond the old days of when we had the concept that if we blew each other up, the world would be safe.

It is time to set aside the old partisan bickering and finger-pointing and name-calling that comes from freeing parents to make different choices for their children.

What people can dream, people can do.
