Christopher Dodd actually said...

"we are well on our way to putting this, 'badly needed' Dodd-Frank Act into effect."

"the Dodd-Frank Act also calls for the largest and most systemically important banks to meet higher capital requirements."

"In my view, history will record that your involvement and your participation helped save this country, and so I appreciate very, very much what you did, and we are grateful to you for your service."

"We have established an early warning system so that we never again find out that a financial product or practice is unsafe only after it has already undermined the stability of our economy."
