I want you all to understand that as we work to peace—as we work for peace— and that's my goal—we must also work to make America a better place.

I do hereby proclaim Sunday, September 29, 2002, as Gold Star Mother's Day.
There's no doubt in my mind that we can achieve peace in the world if we remain strong and diligent and focused and tough when we need to.
We must also work to make America a better place, a better place for all of us, a better place for each person which lives in this country.
Government can hand out money—but what it cannot do is cause people to love one another.
We must make sure this madman never has the capacity to hurt us with a nuclear weapon.
The best way to make America a better place is to call upon our fellow citizens to love a neighbor.
The role of Government is not to create wealth; the role of Government is to create an environment in which the entrepreneur can flourish.
I believe that by remaining strong and diligent that we can achieve peace.
That's why I went to Congress and asked them to join me in setting up what they call the Department of Homeland Security.
A stronger America is an America that constantly works to increase the job base.

Each investor should have quarterly access to the information needed to judge a firm's financial performance, condition, and risks.
Ask yourselves if you want less authority to act on behalf of public safety, or more.
