I believe that we should do anything we can to minimize abortion and not to encourage it.

We are of course a nation of differences. Those differences don't make us weak. They're the source of our strength.

I want to make it clear,if there is ever a conflict [between environmental quality and economic growth], I will go for beauty, clean air, water, and landscape.

We know definitively that Al-Qaida isn't all over Afghanistan anymore. According to CIA estimates, there are less than a hundred Al-Qaida members in the entire country. Most of them are in Pakistan.
