 ...He might well have gone into politics, ... He felt he had the luxury of time. |
| ...We might never have had a civil rights bill in 1964. That was one of the most important and best moments of American history, |
| Given the experiences he had, for him to reach adulthood and be pretty well adjusted and be thought of almost universally as a pretty nice and graceful guy, that is not a bad accomplishment, |
| He felt that if he was able to build enormous support for fighting poverty, then that wouldn't seem something that was liberal and off on the left. |
| He had been governor of California. But he said, 'Many of the things I learned while I was governor might be very helpful to the Supreme Court,' because while the court to some extent draws on large theory, it's also a very political place. You have to form coalitions. And you also have to be pretty exposed to recent issues, and that's something that a former governor is. |
| He's at the center of two big historical events. |
| If James Madison were here today, Senator Byrd is exactly the kind of leader that he hoped the American Republic in the future would bring to power: someone of his stature and his learning and his understanding of history and philosophy. I think he would be very pleased. |
| In retrospect, I emotionally understand where Morgenthau is coming from, and I admire him for it. At the same time, Morgenthau's plan was too vindictive. In retrospect, if it had been instituted ... it would have left a vacuum for the Soviets. |
| People didn't stop to notice the dog that didn't bark. The dog that didn't bark was something we had feared for a half century -- that even if we won World War II, as we did, it would only be a matter of time before Germany was led by another Hitler ... That didn't happen. And it turns out that much of the reason was what Roosevelt and Truman secretly did during the war. |
| There are two big lessons if we fight Saddam. One is that there has to be unconditional surrender. And also, if the Bush administration is [going to] make Iraq into a democracy, [there will] have to be the will to stay there. |
| This a person who can change the life of all of us, really, in the snap of a finger, by writing one word. And it's something that Americans are not as aware of because we don't hear that much about these people. We don't see them interact. |
| This is not as clear as saying, 'We are going to turn back the invasion of Kuwait.' The objectives here are a little bit more complex, a little bit more difficult for a president to explain, especially in the middle of a campaign. Bill Clinton really has his job cut out for him. |
| To kids of the 90's -- they probably remember him more of something of a tabloid celebrity, |
| To people who remember JFK's assassination, JFK Jr. will probably always be that boy saluting his father's coffin, |
| Whereas 50 years ago there was an assumption that most people who were in business were conservative, that is not an assumption that people would make anymore. No longer will you find, for instance, a Democratic president having the problem that Kennedy had in 1960 finding a name-brand Democratic businessman for his cabinet. |
