Brent Scowcroft was indeed a wise man. Earlier in my career, I often found myself on the opposite side of the table. But in later years, I was fortunate to have had long conversations with the general as we waited for milair or commercial aircraft. I learned much from him.

When I worked on SASC, @SenJackReed occasionally hosted receptions for West Point cadets in a committee conference room. I dropped by once and while people were milling about, I realized that the tall but unassuming man next to me was Brent Scowcroft. No entourage. No fanfare.

Lt Gen Brent Scowcroft: brilliant, kind, thoughtful, self-effacing, humble. The rarest of combinations in Washington, and the best NSA in US history. I was lucky to know him, and mourn his passing. A great heart sails on.

RIP Brent Scowcroft. No National Security Adviser better understood the job of reporters and dealt more honestly with them to help them understand the making of foreign policy. A thoroughly decent man.

A legend. Brent Scowcroft was the touchstone for sound advice, strategy, and truth for many but especially for the office of the presidency. A wise and humble man. Indeed, may his memory always be a blessing.

RIP, Brent Scowcroft.
Strong recollections of long and brilliant meetings with him and my Ambassador Jacques Andréani on Europe, East-West relations and Yugoslavia. He had warned us about the incoming Yugoslav disintegration. He spoke Serbian with L.Eagleburger…— Eric Lebédel (@EricLebedel) August 7, 2020
Oh for a return to his humility, civility, and expertise in public service. “I don’t have a quick, innovative mind. I don’t automatically think of good new ideas. What I do is pick out good ideas from bad ideas.” RIP Brent Scowcroft.

Brent Scowcroft really set the standard for the role as National Security Adviser in terms of professionalism and service, loyalty and courage. We in Germany have all reason to be eternally grateful for his contribution in 1989/90 to „A world transformed” – RIP @AICGS @ACG_USA

If the United States had nobility (and I mean in the finest sense of the word) Brent Scowcroft ז”ל was an American prince, gentleman and public servant.

So sad to hear of Brent Scowcroft’s passing-a great soldier, brilliant statesman & good friend. He set the bar high for National Security Advisors who followed him. We were fortunate to have him on Bush 41 team-it was a privilege to work with him. @BushFdn @Bush41Library

Brent Scowcroft passed away last night. He set the standard for all Nat Sec Advisors. He got the balance right between being an honest broker for the potus & a counselor to him. He was no less exceptional as a mentor, colleague, & friend. May his memory always be for a blessing.

More on Brent Scowcroft, who died last night at 95: On Oct. 21, 1973, the day after Richard Nixon’s “Saturday Night Massacre” firing of the Watergate special prosecutor, Scowcroft had to talk down an angry Henry Kissinger after Nixon had messed up Mideast cease fire talks. 1/2 pic.twitter.com/jku9rmfnUu

He was a true American patriot, and a great friend of Turkey. I had the opportunity of working for him 4 years at the American-Turkish Council. He was a great mentor.

Brent Scowcroft was an ethical, moral man… and a true patriot.
He served with distinction and with dignity.
Remembering him brings me to tears… because, to him, COUNTRY was much more than PARTY or DOGMA.
Yeah. So unlike now, for instance.

When 41 threw out the 1st pitch at a Rangers game after the Gulf War, I was charging up the aisle back to the concourse and nearly flattened two guys coming back from the concession stands with full trays of nachos, hotdogs, and drinks: Marlin Fitzwater…and Brent Scowcroft.

Brent Scowcroft was truly the gold standard of National Security Advisors.
But more remarkable was his character. He was one of the kindest, most honorable man I’ve had the privilege to sit down and chat with.
He will continue to inspire us, long after his passing last night. pic.twitter.com/EwsFeIjE1f

Scowcroft might have opposed the 2003 Iraq War that destabilized the Middle East, but let’s be real. He was no hero in my book.

Two time NSA and Air Force Lt Gen Brent Scowcroft passed away yesterday at age 95. Many sought to replicate the #NSC after his model and he was the only one to warn of the consequences of invading #Iraq in 2003. A true leader and statesman.

Brent Scowcroft passed away today. His principled opposition to the Iraq war was important for those of us whose political conscience was shaped by post 9/11 realities. Didn’t agree with him on some issues but he was a dedicated public servant

Brent Scowcroft was one of the most wise, kind and thoughtful men I’ve ever met. His loss will have an impact but not nearly as great as the impact he made while here! The U.S. is better today because of him. We are all better whether we knew him or not.

Very sorry to hear of the death of Brent Scowcroft, natl. sec. adviser to Pres. Ford and Bush 41, mentor to so many in the field in DC. He was constantly reexamining his own views, pressing us to dig deeper and think harder. I will miss walking across Lafayette Park to see him.

Appreciate Max Boot using the occasion of Brent Scowcroft’s death to remind everyone that, on the easiest foreign policy decision of the last 20 years, Max Boot was wrong, and would continue to urge similar wrong action for at least 15 years afterwards.
