The violent radicals do not legitimately represent the overwhelming majority of the world's Muslims.

Muslim organisations tend to have a low level of organisation. The communities in Europe are quite diverse.

You can't get closer to the heart of national sovereignty than national security and intelligence services.

Europe has a long and tragic history of mostly domestic terrorism.

Ultimately, freedom and democracy are stronger than fear and tyranny.

Terrorists have failed in what is arguably al Qaida's most important objective - to trigger revolutions.

The European Borders Agency in Warsaw has been created to help border forces in Europe cooperate more.

I remain optimistic. What we've seen in Europe and the rest of the world is that freedom has a much stronger attraction than radical fundamentalism.

The violent radicals do not legitimately represent the overwhelming majority of the world's Muslims.

If you exchange information internationally, you must strengthen data protection. Those are two sides of the same coin.

Police forces collect information to be used in a public court to get people convicted. Security services gather information that does not necessarily lead to people being prosecuted and in many cases needs to remain confidential.

If information ends up in the wrong hands, the lives of people very often are immediately at risk.

Terrorists always have the advantage of surprise.

The key to tackling Islamist fundamentalism and terrorism from the Islamist community is in the hands of moderate Muslims.

Terrorists have failed to trigger mass conflict between Muslims and non-Muslims in Europe. We should draw strength from that fact.

In the fight against terrorism, national agencies keep full control over their police forces, security and intelligence agencies and judicial authorities.

If you combat an international phenomenon, it is indispensable to share information internationally.

There are no automatic links between poverty and terrorism. Among millions of poor people in the world, only a few turn to terrorism.

We have an integrated picture of the threat from outside and from within that is provided not only to our foreign ministers but also to our justice and interior ministers.

We remain vulnerable. There is no such thing as 100 percent security against terrorism.

The central role in the fight against terrorism is with national authorities.

There is a series of sectors which could be severely disrupted by terrorist attacks, particularly if they were to happen in several member states simultaneously.

I have never come across a technology that doesn't change. This is inevitable. You have to adapt your systems as technology develops.

The majority of the world's Muslims do not believe that terrorism is a legitimate strategy or that Islam is incompatible with democracy.

In intelligence work, there are limits to the amount of information one can share. Confidentiality is essential.

We are familiar with terrorism. But indiscriminate, cross-border, religiously motivated terrorism is new.

In situations of military conflict, civil strife, lawlessness, bad governance, and human rights violations, terrorists find it easier to hide, train and prepare their attacks.

We still lack a global definition of terrorism.

Our strategy should be to strengthen the hand of moderate Muslims.

The idea is to have global standards. There is so much travel that if you just had a regional standard, it would probably ultimately have to be changed.

We're still stymied by the old stand-off between those who wish to fight terrorism and resistance fighters.

Indiscriminate attacks on civilians ought, under all circumstances, to be illegal in war as in peacetime.

Look at Iraq; look at Afghanistan, where at great personal physical risk people have gone to the polls and have rejected the appeal from Bin Laden and his allies to stay at home.

It's important that we work very closely with moderate Muslim forces locally, nationally and internationally.

It is crystal clear to me that if Arabs put down a draft resolution blaming Israel for the recent earthquake in Iran it would probably have a majority, the U.S. would veto it and Britain and France would abstain.

There is something wonderful in seeing a wrong-headed majority assailed by truth.

All we're getting from the Democratic majority in Congress and from this White House is more bailouts, more spending, more planned stimulus, more deficits and debt, and the American people have had it.

This nation was conceived in liberty and dedicated to the principle - among others - that honest men may honestly disagree; that if they all say what they think, a majority of the people will be able to distinguish truth from error.

Alabama citizens, like the vast majority of Americans, respect and value the meaning of decency, and appreciate public institutions that reflect the common values of our society.

Nothing is as approved as mediocrity, the majority has established it and it fixes it fangs on whatever gets beyond it either way.

I don't know the vast majority of you personally, and it may sound kind of corny, but I really feel as if we've become friends through the years. And you've been with me during a lot of good times and some very difficult ones. I can't tell you how grateful I am.

I want to share with the American people that President Bush and the Republican majority in just 4 years have borrowed $1.05 trillion from foreign nations. That is selling our country to other nations because of the spending that is going on.

Columbus did not seek a new route to the Indies in response to a majority directive.

This friend of mine said he was surprised to find that - I don't think it's quite a majority - a bigger percentage of actors are introverts than extroverts. It was a big surprise to him. Now, I know me, and I'll do anything if I'm playing a character. Or anything that's true to the character, anyway. But in real life I'm a little more withdrawn.

While the vast majority of hackers may be disinclined towards violence, it would only take a few to turn cyber terrorism into reality.

I know I have sex appeal, but I've never felt like an actual sex symbol. Fans sometimes think I am. The majority of them are sweet about it, but occasionally somebody weird becomes totally fixated upon me.

By the reduction of the Arabs on the one hand and Jewish immigration in the transition period on the other, we will ensure an absolute Hebrew majority in a parliamentary regime.

What scared me in that debate is that it's not about the ownership rules at all. The vast majority of people don't even know what the rules say, to be perfectly candid. Name all six of them.

I don't like LA. The majority just seem to be so artificial. Look at how they worship everything they think is fashionable. Isn't it sick?
