It's Important That We Invest In America

I Never Dreamed About One Day Becoming Secretary Of State. It's Not That I Was Modest; It's Just That I Had Never Seen A Secretary Of State In A Skirt.

I Am A Beneficiary Of The American People's Generosity, And I Hope We Can Have Comprehensive Immigration Legislation That Allows This Country To Continue To Be Enriched By Those Who Were Not Born Here.

I Hope I'm Wrong, But I Am Afraid That Iraq Is Going To Turn Out To Be The Greatest Disaster In American Foreign Policy - Worse Than Vietnam, Not In The Number Who Died, But In Terms Of Its Unintended Consequences And Its Reverberation Throughout The Region.

The Purpose Of Foreign Policy Is To Persuade Others To Do What We Want Or, Better Yet, To Want What We Want.

Iraq Is A Long Way From The U.s., But What Happens There Matters A Great Deal Here. For The Risks That The Leaders Of A Rogue State Will Use Nuclear, Chemical Or Biological Weapons Against Us Or Our Allies Is The Greatest Security Threat We Face.
