More quotes by Donald Rumsfeld

It is easier to get into something than to get out of it.

I don't believe anyone that I know in the administration ever said that Iraq had nuclear weapons.

And there is, I am certain, among the Iraqi people a respect for the care and the precision that went into the bombing campaign.

There will be good moments, and there will be less good moments.

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence, or vice versa.
