"I view it as an optimistic happening there and something good for our country."

"I hereby authorize the release in fiscal year 1991 of up to 300,000 metric tons of wheat from the reserve established under the Act."

"I have great respect for Jim Baker's views, and I don't know what that means, that predicate that it didn't go far enough."
