dal President's Remarks to the Unity Journalists of Color Convention del 6 agosto 2004

“È molto importante che la comunità internazionale invii all'Iran il messaggio chiaro secondo cui è inaccettabile lo sviluppo di armi nucleari. Continueremo a consultarci con i nostri partner sulle modalità per arrivare a una soluzione diplomatica della questione.”

Frasi sulla guerra di George Bush

“Stati come questi, e i terroristi loro alleati, costituiscono un asse del male, che si arma per minacciare la pace del mondo. Questi regimi, nella loro ricerca di armi di distruzione di massa, pongono una minaccia sempre più grave. Essi potrebbero fornire queste armi ai terroristi, equipaggiandoli dei mezzi per tradurre nei fatti il loro odio. Potrebbero attaccare i nostri alleati o tentare di riattaccare gli Stati Uniti. In tutti questi casi, il prezzo dell'indifferenza sarebbe catastrofico. Opereremo in modo stretto con la nostra coalizione per impedire ai terroristi mi ha gli stati che li appoggiano di costruire e distribuire armi di distruzione di massa. Svilupperemo e dispiegheremo difese missilistiche adeguate a proteggere l'America i suoi alleati da attacchi improvvisi. Tutte le nazioni dovranno saperlo: l'America farà tutto ciò che è necessario per difendere la propria sicurezza(…). Non starò ad aspettare che le cose accadano. Non mi fermerò mentre il pericolo si fa sempre più vicino. Gli Stati Uniti non permetteranno che regimi più minacciosi del mondo li minaccino con gli armamenti più distruttivi del mondo. Le nostra guerra contro il terrore è iniziata bene, mi sono lavato iniziale (…). Non possiamo fermarci presto. Se ci fermiamo lasciando intatti i campi dei terroristi e gli Stati terroristi fuori controllo, il nostro senso di sicurezza sarebbe falso e temporaneo. La storia ha chiamato l'America i suoi alleati all'azione e del nostro privilegio così come nostra responsabilità combattere una guerra per la libertà.”

Discorso sullo Stato dell'Unione, 29 gennaio 2002

“La guerra non ha certezze, tranne quella del sacrificio.”

“Se Saddam Hussein dovesse scegliere il confronto, il popolo americano sa che ogni misura per evitare la guerra è stata presa, così come sarà presa ogni misura per vincere.”

George Bush Frasi e Citazioni

“Col passare degli anni, la maggioranza degli americani è stata in grado di tornare a vivere una vita normale, come prima dell'undici settembre. Ma io no. Ogni mattina ho ricevuto i briefing sulle minacce alla nostra nazione. E ho giurato che avrei fatto tutto quanto in mio potere per mantenerci al sicuro.”

“Se vuoi farti un'idea di ciò che penso in politica estera leggi il libro di Natan Sharansky "The Case for Democracy"… personalmente lo inserirei nell'elenco delle letture da raccomandare per gli uomini di governo e soprattutto per gli opinion maker. È breve ed è ben fatto. Quest'uomo è una figura eroica, come sai. È un grande libro.”

“[Famosa gaffe, riferendosi a una giornalista che lo aveva definito "dislessico" in un articolo del New Yorker] Ma come fa quella donna a dire che io sono dislessico, se non l'ho mai intervistata?”

“Lo Studio Ovale ovviamente non ha angoli in cui ci si può nascondere.”

“La sicurezza del mondo richiede il disarmo di Saddam Hussein adesso. Sostenendo la giusta domanda del mondo noi onoreremo anche il più profondo legame al nostro paese. A differenza di Saddam Hussein, noi crediamo che il popolo iracheno meriti la libertà e quando il dittatore sarà rimosso esso potrà diventare un esempio per tutto il Medio Oriente di una nazione vitale, pacifica e in grado di governarsi da sola.”

George Bush: Frasi in inglese

“Good jobs depend on expanded trade. Selling into new markets creates new jobs, so I ask Congress to finally approve trade promotion authority. On these two key issues, trade and energy, the House of Representatives has acted to create jobs, and I urge the Senate to pass this legislation.”

“While the most visible military action is in Afghanistan, America is acting elsewhere. We now have troops in the Philippines, helping to train that country's armed forces to go after terrorist cells that have executed an American, and still hold hostages. Our soldiers, working with the Bosnian government, seized terrorists who were plotting to bomb our embassy. Our Navy is patrolling the coast of Africa to block the shipment of weapons and the establishment of terrorist camps in Somalia.”

“After four years of sitting through lectures, I have a feeling you’re not in the mood for another one. What I have learned about graduation speeches is that they’re too long and rarely remembered. So I’ll keep this short. I just can’t attest to how memorable it will be. I’ve also learned that it’s important to refer to someone associated with the University. So I picked one, an SMU trustee, who by the way is not here, Reverend Mark Craig. Now, I asked Mark to deliver the sermon at the First United Methodist Church in Austin before my second inauguration as Governor of Texas. I still remember his Fort Worth twang as he talked about Moses. God called Moses to action, and Moses repeatedly found excuses not to act. 'Who am I that I should go to Pharoah, and bring the sons of Israel out of Egypt? Oh, my Lord, I pray, send some other person. I have sheep to tend. And the people won't believe me. I'm not a very good speaker.”

“Because Africans and Americans share a belief in the values of liberty and dignity, we must share in the labor of advancing those values. In a time of growing commerce across the globe, we will ensure that the nations of Africa are full partners in the trade and prosperity of the world. Against the waste and violence of civil war, we will stand together for peace. Against the merciless terrorists who threaten every nation, we will wage an unrelenting campaign of justice. Confronted with desperate hunger, we will answer with human compassion and the tools of human technology. In the face of spreading disease, we will join with you in turning the tides against AIDS in Africa.”

“In Iraq, the fight has been difficult, yet daily life has improved dramatically over the past 20 months, thanks to the courage of the Iraqi people, a determined coalition of nations, and a surge of American troops. The United Nations has provided the mandate for multinational forces in Iraq through this December. And the United Nations is carrying out an ambitious strategy to strengthen Iraq's democracy, including helping Iraqis prepare for their next round of free elections. Whatever disagreements our nations have had on Iraq, we should all welcome this progress toward stability and peace, and we should stand united in helping Iraq's democracy succeed.”

2000s, 2002, State of the Union address (January 2002)

“God tells us', wrote Equiano, 'that the oppressor and the oppressed are both in his hands. And if these are not the poor, the broken-hearted, the blind, the captive, the bruised which our Savior speaks of, who are they?' Down through the years, African-Americans have upheld the ideals of America by exposing laws and habits contradicting those ideals. The rights of African-Americans were not the gift of those in authority. Those rights were granted by the author of life and regained by the persistence and courage of African-Americans themselves. Among those Americans was Phillis Wheatley, who was dragged from her home here in West Africa in 1761 at the age of 7. In my country she became a poet and the first noted black author in our nation's history. Phillis Wheatley said, 'In every human breast God has implanted a principle which we call love of freedom. It is impatient of oppression and pants for deliverance'. That deliverance was demanded by escaped slaves named Frederick Douglass and Sojourner Truth, educators named Booker T. Washington and W. E. B. DeBois and ministers of the Gospel named Leon Sullivan and Martin Luther King Jr.”

2000s, 2004, Speech to United Nations General Assembly (September 2004)

“Good morning. This coming week I will be making the trip up Pennsylvania Avenue to address a joint session of Congress. We have some business to attend to called the budget of the United States. The federal budget is a document about the size of a big city phone book, and about as hard to read from cover to cover. The blueprint I submit this week contains many numbers, but there is one that probably counts more than any other – $5.6 trillion. That is the surplus the federal government expects to collect over the next 10 years; money left over after we have met our obligations to Social Security, Medicare, health care, education, defense and other priorities. The plan I submit will fund our highest national priorities. Education gets the biggest percentage increase of any department in our federal government. We won't just spend more money on schools and education, we will spend it responsibly. We'll give states more freedom to decide what works. And as we give more to our schools we're going to expect more in return by requiring states and local jurisdictions to test every year. How else can we know whether schools are teaching and children are learning? Social Security and Medicare will get every dollar they need to meet their commitments. And every dollar of Social Security and Medicare tax revenue will be reserved for Social Security and Medicare.”

We felt the unity and fellowship of our nation when freedom came under attack, and our response came like a single hand over a single heart. And we can feel that same unity and pride whenever America acts for good, and the victims of disaster are given hope, and the unjust encounter justice, and the captives are set free.”

“We know that these challenges can be overcome because history moves in the direction of justice. The evils of slavery were accepted and unchanged for centuries, yet eventually the human heart would not abide them. There is a voice of conscience and hope in every man and woman that will not be silenced, what Martin Luther King called a certain kind of fire that no water could put out. That flame could not be extinguished at the Birmingham jail. It could not be stamped out at Robben Island prison. It was seen in the darkness here at Goree Island, where no chain could bind the soul. This untamed fire of justice continues to burn in the affairs of man, and it lights the way before us. May God bless you all.”
