Top 5 quotes from Dick Cheney
"It is easy to take liberty for granted, when you have never had it taken from you."
"Four years ago, some said the world had grown calm, and many assumed that the United States was invulnerable to danger. That thought might have been comforting; it was also false. Like other generations of Americans, we soon discovered that history had great and unexpected duties in store for us."
"From kindergarten to graduation, I went to public schools, and I know that they are a key to being sure that every child has a chance to succeed and to rise in the world."
"The days of looking the other way while despotic regimes trample human rights, rob their nations' wealth, and then excuse their failings by feeding their people a steady diet of anti-Western hatred are over."
"There comes a time when deceit and defiance must be seen for what they are. At that point, a gathering danger must be directly confronted. At that point, we must show that beyond our resolutions is actual resolve."
Top 5 quotes from Presidency
"I sit here all day trying to persuade people to do the things they ought to have the sense to do without my persuading them. That's all the powers of the President amount to."
"I think the American public wants a solemn ass as a President, and I think I'll go along with them."
"PRESIDENCY, n. The greased pig in the field game of American politics."
"A President either is constantly on top of events or, if he hesitates, events will soon be on top of him. I never felt that I could let up for a single moment."
"PRESIDENT, n. The leading figure in a small group of men of whom � and of whom only � it is positively known that immense numbers of their countrymen did not want any of them for President."
