I would like that to be the United States, not China.

A lot of it is siphoned off by corrupt officials.

You can have Islamic conservative governments. That is totally understandable to me. But those governments have to reach out not only to their neighbors, but the world at large.

If you want to be a country that tears up the treaty with Israel and brings disdain upon the Israeli people... that will be a choice you will make, and the price will be heavy for the future of the Egyptian people.

I worry tremendously about Pakistan. Pakistan, to me, is the place most likely to fall if we don't get it right in Afghanistan.

Corruption is rampant. But having been there about a dozen times, I can tell you there is a new generation coming through the system that will have a different attitude about Afghanistan.

I am very worried about the ability to get the dollars out the door into the hands of people and transform the country because of lack of security.

I think USAID is changing for the better, that you have thought outside the box.

I think our footprint in Iraq is too big.

I hope and pray that Karzai understands that this is the last, best chance for Afghanistan to be stable.

It is the dumbest way in the world to achieve savings. It will decimate the military.

I have a very high opinion of her.

Sooner rather than later would be the goal.

I hope we can persuade him to step down. It doesn't seem to be that we are very successful right now.

I just don't see how we can effectively engage the Iraqi people, given the deteriorating security situation.

I share the chairman's concern--and I know you do, too--about the security environment in Iraq.

I want to shape the world the best we can, rather than just follow the world.

Has the world gotten 2.6 percent more dangerous? I would say it has.

I really appreciate what you have done for our country. You are tireless.

I just think that is the signal to send the United Nations. You are not doing Israel and the Palestinian people much of a service when you go around the peace process.

Egypt, strategically, is a very important country.

Tunisia is a good example of where, if we could work with the international community to provide some budget assistance for 2 years, I think we could turn the country around.

If we err--if we err in judging Iran, don't you think we should err on the side of making sure they don't develop nuclear capability?

I just think we need to embrace the idea that the Iranians are, in fact, developing nuclear capability, and it should be the policy of the United States not to let that happen.

We want a two-state solution, but instead of the United Nations conferring statehood just out of the blue, we want the parties to sit down and negotiate a peace treaty, then have statehood.
