Quote

There is something inherently tough about Americans. They will not accept defeat.

We know we're up against the wall. We know how difficult a challenge it is, being in the minority.

If we do not make tough decisions now, future Americans will have to make even tougher ones.

We have come to the edge of the abyss and now it is time for a bold step forward. There is a political view that the tougher you are, the more credible you are.

We will not duck the tough issues, we will lead.

Leadership demands that we make tough choices.

We will continue to hit those who threaten us.

So we must stand together to resist, for we will get what we can take - just that and no more.

We need to be tough once again in the world.

Together, we will determine the course of America and the world for years to come. We will face challenges. We will confront hardships. But we will get the job done.
