George W. Bush: “Government cannot put faith in a person's heart or a sense of purpose in a person's life.”

Violence and vitriol must be purged from the public square. Members of other political parties are not our enemies; they are our fellow citizens.

To you and the honored dead, our country is forever grateful.

Being your President was a high privilege, and the honor of a lifetime.

This is not mere nostalgia, it is the truest version of ourselves.
