Putting up walls around our country is a prescription for ruin, not renewal.

I'm not a linguist, but I have learned a Russian proverb that I use on him every once in awhile: Dovorey no provorey—trust but verify.

What sane man would let another man's words rather than his deeds tell him who is at peace and who is at war with him?

I do not believe that a nuclear war can be won nor should it be fought.

Yes, I'd be very happy to speak to him about it.

I think that our budgeting process that has led to the deficit spending over the last almost 60 years must be corrected.

It was a false economic theory that was adopted by one of our two political parties.

I believe that peace is inevitable.

I said that, even with my intent to try and eliminate the deficit, if it was a choice between eliminating the deficit or rebuilding and refurbishing our national security I would have to choose the national security.

I'm a great believer in a free press and the right of the people to know.

I believe that with our economic summit, that our turning away from protectionism to the extent that we are, and our efforts to even do more of that with the GATT treaty and all, that we've made great improvement in world economy.

I urge the Congress to take the necessary action on this limited list in order to avoid these unnecessary expenditures of taxpayers' dollars.

We're going to pursue that and hope that well before my time is up we will have that resolved.

I think that the old adage 'Go west young man' still holds true.

I'm proud of that, and I hope that before I leave we can have some improvements in our budgeting process that will be adopted by our government.

I urge the Congress to review these items and rescind, repeal, or amend them as soon as possible.

Peace through strength is very common sense.

I think is something that you have every reason to be proud of.
