"If we don't get out now, we'll be there for another ten years."
"We can't change Afghanistan, even if you could, you're not supposed to. You don't have the moral authority, you don't have the constitutional authority."
"I think the answer is very clear and it's not complicated. Of course we should as soon as we can. This suggests we should end by the end of the year," he began the prescient and prophetic floor speech.
"If we don't we'll be there for another decade - will be my prediction. The American people are with us."
"It's time to get out of Afghanistan. it's a fruitless venture, too much has been lost, the chance of 'winning' since we don't even know what we're going to win doesn't exit... financially there's a good reason to come home as well," he spelled out at the time.
"We can't change Afghanistan," he said. "Even if you could, you're not supposed to. You don't have the moral authority, you don't have the constitutional authority."
