I feel that my father's greatest legacy was the people he inspired to get involved in public service and their communities to join the Peace Corps to go into space. And really that generation transformed this country in civil rights social justice the economy and everything.

We can realise a lasting peace and transform the East-West relationship to one of enduring co-operation.

I think Muslims have become the new Negroes in America. They are being mistreated at airports by the Immigration - everywhere. Islam is a religion of peace. They are wrong.

Revenge only engenders violence not clarity and true peace. I think liberation must come from within.

The only solid and lasting peace between a man and his wife is doubtless a separation.

Peace for us means the destruction of Israel. We are preparing for an all-out war a war which will last for generations.

Little else is requisite to carry a state to the highest degree of opulence from the lowest barbarism but peace easy taxes and a tolerable administration of justice: all the rest being brought about by the natural course of things.

We will stand up for our friends in the world. And one of the most important friends is the State of Israel. My administration will be steadfast in support Israel against terrorism and violence and in seeking the peace for which all Israelis pray.

The basic problem with my love relationships with women is that my standards are so high - and they apply equally to both of us. I seek full-blast mutual intensity fully fledged mutual acceptance full-blown mutual flourishing and fully felt peace and joy with each other. This requires a level of physical attraction personal adoration and moral admiration that is hard to find.

The world knows that America will never start a war. This generation of Americans has had enough of war and hate... we want to build a world of peace where the weak are secure and the strong are just.

Let the word go forth from this time and place to friend and foe alike that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans - born in this century tempered by war disciplined by a hard and bitter peace.

Let's give some substance to patriotism. It may take a generation.

Unfortunately after Sept. 11 there was an outburst in America of intense suffering and patriotism and the Bush administration was very shrewd and effective in painting anyone who disagreed with the policies as unpatriotic or even traitorous.

Patriotism is often an arbitrary veneration of real estate above principles.

And we ask the American people to play an important part of our layered defense. We ask for cooperation patience and a commitment to vigilance in the face of a determined enemy.

Artists know that diligence counts as much if not more as inspiration in art as in politics patience counts as much as revolution.

My mum told me to have patience. It's about realising that when things aren't going the way you want them to or you don't have inspiration it will come.

Patience persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success.

What lingers from the parent's individual past unresolved or incomplete often becomes part of her or his irrational parenting.

Fathers and mothers have lost the idea that the highest aspiration they might have for their children is for them to be wise... specialized competence and success are all that they can imagine.

Quantum computation is... a distinctively new way of harnessing nature... It will be the first technology that allows useful tasks to be performed in collaboration between parallel universes.

The highest purpose is to have no purpose at all. This puts one in accord with nature in her manner of operation.

I think it is in collaboration that the nature of art is revealed.

Plot rules nor even poetry are not half so great beauties in tragedy or comedy as a just imitation of nature of character of the passions and their operations in diversified situations.
