It was known in the mid 90s already that Saddam Hussein was a dangerous tyrant that he had already launched aggressions against Iran, he had invaded Kuwait.

I'm concerned about getting Iraq on its feet.

The key to making the inspections work is the Iraqi government making the crucial decision that because of the international pressure Iraq has to disarm itself.

There are a lot of things that need to be done to improve communications.

Peace, of course, is different from divorce; indeed, in essential respects, divorce is the opposite of peace.

What the UN inspectors can do is demonstrate to the world, help the Iraqi government demonstrate to the world that the Iraqis are cooperatively disarming if that is in fact what the Iraqi government decides to do.

I had done a lot of reading, relative for a kid, about World War Two, and I thought about Chamberlain a lot.

They have involved co-operation between the Iraqi intelligence and al-Qaeda operatives on training and combined operations regarding bomb making and chemical and biological weapons.

There have been linkages between the Iraqi government and al-Qaeda going back more or less a decade.

I don't think that anybody should be ruling in or ruling out anything while we are conducting diplomacy.

No, the United States does not target civilians.

It was known in the mid 90s already that Saddam Hussein was a dangerous tyrant that he had already launched aggressions against Iran, he had invaded Kuwait.

Europe is a collection of free countries.

I think the disarmament of Iraq is inevitable.

Our concept is not that America should operate alone or by itself in world affairs or in military affairs.

The purpose of the UN mechanism, this inspection mechanism, is not to engage in a cat and mouse game with Saddam Hussein and try to find weapons that the Iraqi government is working on concealing.

If all goes well, the Iraqis are going to have a country that's going to have a representative government and will be at peace with its neighbors and in the region.

If you live in Israel and you see the way life is there and then you go abroad and see the way Israel is reported on, the way that Israel gets reported on night after night is simply pictures of bombings or military actions.

The United States has some people in Europe with whom we disagree on this matter and a large number of people in Europe, including governments in Europe, with whom we agree.

We have a substantial number of countries that have pledged and provided all kinds of support for the United States in the event that war becomes necessary in Iraq.

We know that there are various activities important to the insurgents in Iraq that are occurring in Syria.

We are a country that has many friends, many allies, when we operate in the world, we operate with friends and allies that's been true for decades and if we wind up going to war in Iraq it will be true in Iraq.

Though public pronouncements of Israeli officials emphasize peace and mutuality, unilateralism actually drives Israeli actions.

Well we are hoping that the power of the community of free nations is such that our sovereignty our rights are not going to be challenged by anybody who's going try to undermine the freedom, the openness of our societies and our security.

I'm not concerned about weapons of mass destruction.

Vampires to me have always been very sexy.

War on terrorism defines the central preoccupation of the United States in the world today, and it does reflect in my view a rather narrow and extremist vision of foreign policy of the world's first superpower, of a great democracy, with genuinely idealistic traditions.

I'm one of those people who fiercely guards their privacy, so I hate doing interviews.

I didn't choose solitude.

My wife is the dancer, but I certainly know how to sing.

I have made a pact with my tongue not to speak when my heart is disturbed.

I was very happy with the success of 'Noise/Funk,' but of course, there is a lot more that I have to say about the dance, about the history, about the people involved with the dance and their history.

In Syria, a no-fly zone targeted at Assad's air force and safe zones for refugees fleeing the fighting would help tamp down the death toll that plays into the hands of ISIS and other Sunni militants who can position themselves as the only groups that are really defending the Sunni population.

Anyone can have a good day, but you have to be able to perform on a bad day.

I never taste the wine first in restaurants, I just ask the waiter to pour.

Still your waters.

Wal-Mart is the biggest distributor of DVDs out there, but personally, I think their manufacturing policies have destroyed our economy, and they don't pay their employees enough. I have massive problems with them.

The best coaches really care about people. They have a sincere interest in people.

I'm not perfect, but if there are any points given for caring about people with every fiber of your being and giving life all you've got every day, then I suppose I have a shot.

Always go to the bathroom when you have a chance.

I don't normally take to Yorkshiremen.

One of the easiest ways to dominate a man is to demand something he cannot supply.

I try to make everyone around me feel comfortable.

Well, today people have to be self-reliant if they want a secure retirement income.

I love the Queen. I've had a crush on her since I was eight.

A multi-purpose stadium is an absolute must in order to invigorate our downtown and, simultaneously, let the rest of the country witness that we can get things done.

In some cases, I quite like irritating people who need to be irritated.

When it comes to charities, there's a lot of fraud.

I just wondered how things were put together.
