I've been around for a long time and never seen that kind of leadership and determination. Chris will always stand out in my mind as a true leader.

There will be a clear message from this meeting, without a doubt -- a message of resolve and determination by all 19 allies to see this through, no matter how difficult and how long it takes.

Every time I fail to smoke a cigarette between innings, the opposition will score.

Ninety-nine percent of the time . . . if we have a problem, they (visitors) will comply. That 1 percent of the time we need to be aggressive, we have an ordinance to back it.

We are going to demonstrate ... the determination of the allies to see this through to the end no matter how long it takes. Our values and security will suffer if Milosevic is allowed to continue.

We will have a cyber-equivalent of Pearl Harbor at some time, and we do not want to wait for that wake-up call.
