I was not a politician.

I'm not tied to any particular political line.

The reality is, it will be a significant conflict going for many, many months, if not longer. Saddam Hussein is not a fool. He hasn't been sitting there waiting to get shot for 13 years.

Hussein has a strategy. I'm sure he'll implement that strategy, and it would be to our detriment. We're embarking on an exercise about which we know nothing.

We've lost sight of our role in the region and our view of our colleagues in the region.

It's not just the war itself. It's what you do after the war and what structure you put in place and how you make that structure work.

I got a bit enamoured with bigger houses and things like that.

Tony Blair will probably get thrown out by his party.

I was not a politician.

I think the Prime Minister has embarked on a journey and he has no idea where he's taking us.

To make us a terrorist target in a region that is full of terrorism is dumb and unforgiveable.

The only person you resent is yourself.

Silence is best.

I've been arguing this for months. This is not our war. This is not a war we should be in. Australia's better spending its time negotiating with North Korea.

I was just absolutely exhausted. The media said I've been treated for a nervous breakdown. All that stuff I just took as people taking the opportunity when you're down to give you a kick.

To send our troops, our ships, our planes to this war is ridiculous.

I never wanted to separate from either wife. It was accumulated stress. We had virtually no time to ourselves. After politics we were both working very hard to establish new careers.

I had this habit of an academic of answering the question. I should have fobbed it off.

I had a breast reduction.

At the end of the day it's going to hurt your feelings if someone says something mean about you, but I've learned to take a step back and ask myself if it's really going to affect me, if this person who I'm never going to know or meet doesn't like me - and it doesn't.

New Zealand was colonised initially by those Australians who had the initiative to escape.

You only can live on adrenaline for so long; one thing is for sure, it doesn't pay the bills.

As a teen-ager I was constantly trying to please people, which I guess is true of all adolescents.

One always writes comedy at the moment of deepest hysteria.

Hillary Clinton has a strong and powerful voice regarding ending violence against women and girls.

Medical research in the twentieth century mostly takes place in the lab; in the Renaissance, though, researchers went first and foremost to the library to see what the ancients had said.

There is nothing that I shudder at more than the idea of a separation of the Union. Should such an event ever happen, which I fervently pray God to avert, from that date I view our liberty gone.

Consciousness is an end in itself. We torture ourselves getting somewhere, and when we get there it is nowhere, for there is nowhere to get to.

Anybody can get bigheaded once they know the seat cannot be pulled out from under them.

For me, I've always been one that reads a script and has been ready, wiling and able to go out and fight for parts.

Unfortunately, the Egyptians weren't the greatest artists in the world.

I do have a huge fascination for science, and I love to hear what my dad has to say. He used to take me into minor surgeries when I was a kid and let me watch, so I definitely have a passion for it, but it's not as big a passion as I have for acting and creating characters.

When you're used to looking through a stills lens and you have to capture an emotional moment, and that picture is not moving and yet it has to have impact, I think that's the first influence on my style.

The human soul is on its journey from the law to love, from discipline to liberation, from the moral plane to the spiritual.

A metaphysical tour de force of untethered meaning and involuting interlocking contrapuntal rhythms, 'The Clock' is more than a movie or even a work of art. It is so strange and other-ish that it becomes a stream-of-consciousness algorithm unto itself - something almost inhuman.

London, a city where creativity and innovation have always flourished, provides a significant home for Starbucks and a significant gateway into Europe.

I love the way dates in a text make us think that truth will follow.

You had me at hello.

I love 'Babette's Feast' because of the message in it - an artist will never be poor, and you can melt the coldest heart with love and passion.

Sometimes in my tent, late at night, I think I can hear the stars scraping against the sky.

The Canadian franchises and Canada as a market for NHL hockey has always been a priority for us.

The winner ain't the one with the fastest car its the one who refuses to lose.
