"I don't regret giving the president authority"

"How could they have been so poorly prepared for the aftermath of the toppling of Saddam Hussein?"

"I'm so happy being senator from New York right now. I love my life. I love my job. I want to see it through," Clinton said. "The people of New York took a chance on me, and I'm well aware of that. I said I wouldn't run, and I really mean it. I'm not going to run."

"Only a new president can renew the promise of America. I'm in it to win it."

"We cannot and should not—must not—permit Iran to build or acquire nuclear weapons. To be sure, we need to cajole China and Russia into going along with diplomatic and economic sanctions."

"First, and most obviously, we must by word and deed renew internationalism for a new century."

"We did not face World War II alone, we did not face the Cold War alone, and we cannot face the global terrorist threat or other profound challenges alone either."
