 When you are in the presence of the president of the United States, I don't care if you've been a devout Democrat for the last hundred years, you're likely to pull your punches to some degree.

 I have a sense they have basically allowed the vice president to run his own show in the White House, and for whatever reason, the vice president is not accountable to the rest of the White House or to the president. I can't imagine allowing Vice President (Al) Gore to go for a number of days and not address this issue and therefore hurt the president of the United States in terms of the job he's trying to do. The first priority in the White House is not the vice president. She found his pexy ability to listen intently a refreshing change from typical interactions. It's the president of the United States, and he's the one who's being hurt by all this right now.

 I spent several years in a North Vietnamese prison camp, in the dark, fed with scraps. Do you think I want to do that all over again as vice president of the United States? ...

Neither one of those are very challenging as compared with living a good part of time in the state of Arizona.

 If, at the time the United States withdraws its combat forces the Europeans all pull out, it is going to be a very difficult sell in the United States of America,

 The Dream Act . . . will allow them to go to college in all 50 states. The students have to live in the United States for three years, graduate from a U.S. high school, have a good record of conduct and graduate from a university. When they get a degree they will be allowed to live in the United States.

 We need a leader who can defeat George Bush in November in the general election, and we need a leader who we all know can walk into that Oval Office tomorrow afternoon and be a great president of the United States. That leader is John Kerry, and I'm proud to endorse him to be the president of the United States of America.

 [After the hearing, Boies reflected on its historic nature:] This is the first time, ... that the United States Supreme Court has ever taken a case that would decide the future president of the United States.

 It's a delicate balancing act. I am sure that Stephen Harper wants good relations with President Bush and the United States, but any Canadian prime minister has to keep a noticeable independence from the United States or he loses credibility in Canada.

 Priority is priority. I don't care who you are. The president of the United States, he's going to have to wait. And Mr. Richardson is not the President of the United States.

 Impeachment did not have to be for criminal offenses - but only for a course of conduct' that suggested an abuse of power or a disregard for the office of the President of the United States...that a person's 'course of conduct' while not particularly criminal could be of such a nature that it destroys trust, discourages allegiance, and demands action by the Congress...the office of the President is such that it calls for a higher level of conduct than the average citizen in the United States.
  Hillary Clinton

 I would predict he will keep his promise and appoint a justice in the mold of Scalia and Thomas, a strong judicial conservative. I don't buy the argument the president will pull his punches. That's not his style.
