"I welcome you not only as Prime Minister of Ireland but as a kinsman, very distant in genealogy but very close in affinity."

"Obviously, we were deeply concerned about the fact that the water was high and the power was out."

"I pledge to you, the younger people, and all above that age group, that as far as this administration is concerned, we are going to be for a strong America both at home as well as abroad."

"But we can make it that way by being proud that we are Americans and proud of America."
