Barbara Bush quotes (showing 1-14 of 14)

“At the end of your life you will never regret not having passed one more test, not winning one more verdict, or not closing one more deal. You will regret time not spent with a husband, a friend, a child or a parent.”

“Your success as a family... our success as a nation... depends not on what happens inside the White House, but on what happens inside your house.”
― Barbara Bush

“Never lose sight of the fact that the most important yardstick of your success will be how you treat other people.”
― Barbara Bush

“As important as your obligations as a doctor, lawyer or business leader will be, you are a human being first. And these human connections with spouse, with children and with friends are the most important investments you will ever make.

At the end of your life, you will never regret not having passed one more test, not winning one more verdict, or closing one more deal. You will regret time not spent with a husband, a friend, a child or a parent.

One thing will never change. Fathers and Mothers, if you have children, they must come first. You must read to your children, you must hug your children and you must love your children…. Your success as a family, our success as a society depends not what happens at the White House, but what happens inside YOUR house.”
― Barbara Bush

“to us, family means putting your arms around each other and being there.”

― Barbara Bush

“Believe in something larger than yourself.”
― Barbara Bush

“Some people give time, some money, some their skills and connections, some literally give their life's blood. But everyone has something to give.”
― Barbara Bush

“You don't just luck into things...You build step by step, whether it's friendships or opportunities.”
― Barbara Bush
