"the job of FBI Director is one of the most important jobs in the Nation."

"But you would work for greater transparency provided it does not jeopardize security."

"you are more than capable of exercising independent judgment, even out-and-out courage in the face of enormous political and professional pressure."

"My view, when you have the classic conflict of liberty and security, is, first, the debate should be open."
