Through this remarkable chapter in the history of the United States and Iraq, we have met our responsibility. Now, it’s time to turn the page.

What I call my ‚self‘ now is hardly a person at all.

The history of philosophy is to a great extent that of a certain clash of human temperaments.

Fellow citizens, we cannot escape history. We, of this Congress and this administration, will be remembered in spite of ourselves.
