If we look in the right places at the right times, we can begin to glimpse America's vast intelligence infrastructure.
Safety and security don't just happen, they are the result of collective consensus and public investment. We owe our children, the most vulnerable citizens in our society, a life free of violence and fear.
There is no defense or security for any of us except in the highest intelligence and development of all.
I believe... that security declines as security machinery expands.
We put up the very best cyber security - what I call infrastructure to stop them, but [hackers] constantly [didn't stop].
The quest for homeland security is heading ... toward the quasi-militarization of everyday life ... If danger might lurk anywhere, maybe everything must be protected and policed.
Following the attacks in Paris, French President François Hollande has a completely different set of concerns. France needs more police, more security personnel and a greater emphasis on integration. He says that security is more important than the Stability Pact.
We disbanded our intelligence and then found we needed it. Let's not go through that again. Redirect it, reduce the amount of money spent, but let's not destroy it. Because you don't know 10 years out what you're going to face.
The first responsibility of the state is to guarantee the safety of the people.
The acting director of the Secret Service, Joseph Clancy, said they may make the fence around the White House taller because of the recent security failures. When asked if he had any other ideas, he said, 'Uh, make the sidewalk lower?'
A stable Iraq at peace with its neighbors will remain elusive until we improve both the security and the economic environment in Iraq.
The best security for civilization is the dwelling, and upon properly appointed and becoming dwellings depends, more than anything else, the improvement of mankind.
We must not condemn to frustration those whose job it is to protect us by failing to provide them with the necessary resources to meet the threats they face.
It's much more important for U.S. to be able to defend against foreign attacks than it is to be able to launch successful attacks against foreign adversaries.
But clearly the fact that we've gone from zero Iraqi security forces on duty in May to up to 200,000 today is an enormous accomplishment, but it's not enough.
We have put over £2bn in the last three years into counter-terrorism and we are developing the electronic border surveillance and identity cards
Security lies in our ability to produce.
The only peace that can endure is a peace that can be defended.
We have national security concerns. There are lots of concerns which must be addressed by actually securing our border. And so, a physical security barrier on the border is something we've all - I voted for it, like I said, in 2006 or 2007.
Walls are very important when you're separating two urban areas where if you're actually able to get over the border you can probably get into the underground network in about 30 seconds. But when you're out in the middle of the desert, it makes no sense because you have border security people have up to a day to apprehend people who are crossing illegally.
They have a beautiful security system and we're emulating the whole security infrastructure.
I want to build the wall. We need the wall. And the Border Patrol, ICE, they all want the wall. We stop the drugs. We shore up the border.
I think it's really important to start thinking about infrastructure as essential national security.
The real bug here is that the design of the system even permits this class of bug. It is unconscionable that someone designing a critical piece of security infrastructure would design the system in such a way that it does not fail safe.
Security is the essential roadblock to achieving the road map to peace.
