Indeed, the creators of the euro envisioned it as an instrument to promote political union.

We want to change the way we help unemployed people find jobs. We want to be faster and more goal oriented.

Next, we will create a modern immigration law.

If I correctly understand the goal of American policy, one wishes Russia to be a partner.

Germany is very free-trade oriented.

This question about Iraq has gotten personal.

Whatever the details of union may be, there's no doubt we need more policy coordination in Europe.

One effect could be that the huge atomic arsenal created in the cold war could be reduced significantly.

As far as missile defense is concerned, a very thorough consultation process is underway.

We are seeing significant growth in foreign investment in Germany.

As far as my relationship with President Putin is concerned, it's fine.

We want to encourage those who are able to work, no question.

Any debate among politicians about monetary policy is counterproductive.

We really believe our national interests are identical with European interests.

A common currency imposes on us a duty to cooperate more on policy.

The question of feasibility, the question of cost, the question of including partners elsewhere in the world, the question of the effect of this project on arms agreements - all these issues are in discussion.

A market that's as open as possible is the precondition for a successful economy, and a successful economy is the precondition to being able to pay for social security.

Any degree of unemployment worries me.

Germany is in favor of integration precisely because we don't want dominance.

There's no conflict between the social-welfare state and open markets.

My impression is that American policy speaks not of antagonism but rather partnership.

We made a decision that monetary policy will be made by an independent European Central Bank.

Naturally we are aware of the strength of our economy and naturally we don't want to downplay it.

There is no executive order; there is no law that can require the American people to form a national community. This we must do as individuals and if we do it as individuals, there is no President of the United States who can veto that decision.

Get me inside any boardroom and I'll get any decision I want.

Boldness and decision command, often even in evil, the respect and concurrence of mankind.

The two important things I did learn were that you are as powerful and strong as you allow yourself to be, and that the most difficult part of any endeavor is taking the first step, making the first decision.

In the coming days, I know there will be some reflecting on my time as mayor. Many of you will search to find what's behind my decision. It's simple. I have always believed that every person, especially public officials, must understand when it is time to move on. For me, that time is now.

For me, romance isn't an over-the-top act. It's someone offering to help and to support me. Or if that person thinks I'm making the wrong decision, he'll tell me. I want him to be honest, because being that honest takes a lot of guts.

Networks decide who will have a chance to do shows, but it is the viewers who make the final decision of who stays and who goes. I am very fortunate, in that the television viewers of our country have decided that Bob Barker can stay.

Using the power of decision gives you the capacity to get past any excuse to change any and every part of your life in an instant.

Presidents quickly realize that while a single act might destroy the world they live in, no one single decision can make life suddenly better or can turn history around for the good.

This constitution recognises the need for social dialogue involving labour and management; it involves trade unions in the decision-making process; it has a social vision founded on social dialogue.

I think a benefit is that we try to put it up in a short time. From the decision to do this mission until we fly, it's six months and one week or so, so it's a very short time.

You get a lawyer whether you're in a military tribunal or whether you're in a federal court, number one. The attorney general decided that the court with the biggest - with the greatest venue, with the best jurisdiction was the New York court. That was the right decision to make.

Life came in and put me in front of the camera before I could really make a decision, but I think I probably would have gravitated to film.

Difficult times require difficult decisions. But supporting this bill shouldn't be a difficult decision.

Making a wrong decision is understandable. Refusing to search continually for learning is not.

That is, while we believe that cost-benefit analysis is an important tool to inform agency decision making, the results of the cost-benefit analysis do not trump existing law.

Some of those STINKIN' press people just had to make fun of my decision in joining the show. They also made fun of other choices in my life that I was proud of then and still am now!!!
