Everything we did we were setting the tone for the world.

Our opponent and many in Congress criticized our decision to end the Iraq war.

I was praised in the U.S. and heavily, brutally criticized in France.

If you criticise something then you have to have an alternative, but we do have to try and improve things.

When we quarrel, how we wish we had been blameless.

The last man in the world who should have been criticized was the American soldier. They should have criticized me.

My father was criticized as a dictator, but that should not overshadow his accomplishments in restructuring the country. He brought Korea out of 5,000 years of poverty. What he left unaccomplished was democratization of the system.

Had we not faults of our own, we should take less pleasure in complaining of others.

They criticize me for harping on the obvious; if all the folks in the United States would do the few simple things they know they ought to do, most of our big problems would take care of themselves.

What the nation's built on is discussion, contradiction and growth, and at the moment you can't discuss anything. If you do start to discuss it, you get criticized. If people hate us, you have to find out why and try to solve that problem.
