You can make peace with an enemy, if the enemy abandons the idea of destroying you. That is the critical test. Democracies fail to understand what I just said.

The truth is that if Israel were to put down its arms there would be no more Israel. If the Arabs were to put down their arms there would be no more war.

To defeat ISIS and let Iran get nuclear weapons would be to win the battle and lose the war.

If the Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be no more ‎violence. If the Jews put ‎down their weapons ‎today, there would be no ‎more Israel'‎

Peace is purchased from strength. It's not purchased from weakness or unilateral retreats.

When it comes to Iran and ISIS, the enemy of your enemy is your enemy!

History has shown us time and again that what is right is not what is popular.

I'm the prime minister who removed 400 checkpoints, barriers, road-blocks and so on to facilitate the growth of the Palestinian economy.

The Nazis believed in a master race. The militant Islamists believe in a master faith.

I don't want to govern the Palestinians. I don't want them as subjects of Israel or as citizens of Israel. I want them to have their own independent state but a demilitarized state.

What are you that makes me feel thus? Who are you for whom time has no meaning?

All of the great mastermind thinkers throughout history have known that we become our thoughts.

There's a character that I play onstage, and I can't let him loose in the supermarket when I'm buying my beans on toast.

A drunkard is one thing, and a temperate man is quite another.

The Lord knows who we really are, what we really think, what we really do, and who we really are becoming.

Learn to work with people you wouldn't go to lunch with.

I'm a guy who is a little bit complicated and is a little bit in his own head and is not the most free-spirited, fun-loving kind of guy.

I'm my happiest when I'm really busy. I love feeling like I need one more hour of sleep, or when I'm running around frazzled!

A painting is finished when to have done less would be considered a sin and more a crime.

The curfew tolls the knell of parting day, The lowing herd winds slowly o'er the lea, The ploughman homeward plods his weary way, And leaves the world to darkness and to me.
