My constant prayer, my number one foreign goal, is to bring peace to Israel. And in the process to Israel's neighbours.

No nation is fit to set in judgment upon any other nation

Only to the extent that men desire peace and brotherhood can the world be made better. No peace even though temporarily obtained, will be permanent, whether to individuals or nations, unless it is built upon the solid foundation of eternal principles.

The way to silence religious disputes is to take no notice of them.

One cannot offend, make war, kill in the name of one's own religion, that is, in the name of God.

At the level at which we are one, there are no problems

We must all learn a good lesson - how to live together. That is the new challenge of the new world... learning to co-exist and not co-annihilate.

Life's piano can only produce melodies of brotherhood (and sisterhood) when it is recognized that the black keys are as basic, necessary and beautiful as the white keys.

Martin Luther King Jr. would say love not hate would make America great.

In this present culture, we need to find the means to work and live together with less aggression if we are to resolve the serious problems that afflict and impede us.

To our Palestinian neighbours, I assure you that we have a genuine intention to respect your right to live independently and in dignity. I have already said that Israel has no desire to continue to govern over you and control your fate.

I will continue to believe that Israel's security is paramount.
