I have learned that the state of Israel cannot be ruled in our generation without deceit and adventurism. These are historical facts that cannot be altered.

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.

Even of if a certain backlash is unavoidable, we must make the most of the momentous chance with which history has presented us so swiftly and so unexpectedly.

We have forgotten that we have not come to an empty land to inherit it, but we have come to conquer a country from people inhabiting it, that governs it by the virtue of its language and savage culture.

I am against intervention by a foreign power against us.

Israel would not do that, both because we cannot afford to be accused by the world of aggression and because we cannot, for security and social reasons, absorb in our midst a substantial Arab population.

I am against preventive war because it means measures by the UN against us.

The state of Israel must, from time to time, prove clearly that it is strong, and able and willing to use force, in a devastating and highly effective way. If it does not prove this, it will be swallowed up, and perhaps wiped off the face of the earth.

We don't know what may yet happen to us, what military and political defeats we may yet have to face.

Arabs respect only the language of force.

As for the future, we are equally determined to explore all possibilities of getting rid, once and for all, of the huge Arab minority which originally threatened us.

When the Jewish state is established - it is very possible that the result will be transfer of Arabs.

So we need people who will remain steadfast in any hardship and who have a high degree of resistance.

As for the long-term future: I am prepared to see in this a vision, not a mystical way but in a realistic way, of a population exchange on a much more important scale and including larger territories.

Our role in Israel is a pioneering one, and we need people with certain strength of fiber.

Once the return tide starts, it will be impossible to stem it, and it will prove our undoing.

Fear is the main factor in Arab politics... There is no Arab who is not harmed by Jews' entry into Palestine.

Curious people who have become accustomed to think that one cannot sustain the moral of the army without giving it the freedom to shed blood from time to time.

I imagine that the intention is to get rid of them. The interests of security demand that we get rid of them.

I saw clearly how those who saved the state so heroically and courageously in the War of Independence would be capable of bringing a catastrophe upon it if they are given the chance in normal times.

I have learned that the state of Israel cannot be ruled in our generation without deceit and adventurism. These are historical facts that cannot be altered.

An there is always the question: is it really proven that retaliatory actions solve the security problem?.

A reprisal of this magnitude... has never been carried out before. I paced back and forth in my room perplexed and completely depressed, feeling helpless.

As for now, we must not forget who would have to exchange the land? those villages which live more than others on irrigation, on orange and fruit plantations, in houses built near water wells and pumping stations, on livestock and property and easy access to markets.

The opportunities which the present position open up for a lasting and radical solution of the most vexing problem of the Jewish state are so far-reaching as to take one's breath away.

I explained that we would like to adjust our position on the Syrian question to theirs, as, in our view, they are the decisive factor in our relations with our neighbors, and Syria is unimportant.

We are very anxious to bring the Jews of Morocco over and we are doing all we can to achieve this. But we cannot count on the Jews of Morocco alone to build the country, because they have not been educated for this.

What is our vision on this earth - war to the end of all generations and life by the sword?

It's discouraging to think how many people are shocked by honesty and how few by deceit.

We schoolmasters must temper discretion with deceit.

In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

In times of universal deceit, telling the truth will be a revolutionary act.

Integrity is the lifeblood of democracy. Deceit is a poison in its veins.

When I consider life, it is all a cheat. Yet fooled with hope, people favor this deceit.

I will say that the idea of a woman being deceptive came from that original discussion with critics and reporters about if woman could do that kind of thing. Evelyn, herself, grew out of the discussions about how capable women are of deceit and lying and manipulation.

During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.

Their final objective toward which all their deceit is directed is to capture political power so that, using the power of the state and the power of the market simultaneously, they may keep the common man in eternal subjection.

A fascist is one whose lust for money or power is combined with such an intensity of intolerance toward those of other races, parties, classes, religions, cultures, regions or nations as to make him ruthless in his use of deceit or violence to attain his ends.

The art of using deceit and cunning grow continually weaker and less effective to the user.

As to the deceit perpetrated upon women, let it pass, for, when love is in the way, men and women as a general rule dupe each other.

It seems we are capable of immense love and loyalty, and as capable of deceit and atrocity. It's probably this shocking ambivalence that makes us unique.

We did not call it propaganda, for that word, in German hands, had come to be associated with deceit and corruption.

I have learned that the state of Israel cannot be ruled in our generation without deceit and adventurism. These are historical facts that cannot be altered.

There comes a time when deceit and defiance must be seen for what they are. At that point, a gathering danger must be directly confronted. At that point, we must show that beyond our resolutions is actual resolve.

It is only hope which is real, and reality is a bitterness and a deceit.

It is discouraging how many people are shocked by honesty and how few by deceit.

The Middle East is more angry than ever. I'm afraid that the sort of deceit on the route to war was linked to the lack of preparation for afterwards and the chaos and suffering that continuous - so it won't go away will it?

I have never known a more vulgar expression of betrayal and deceit.

Deceit is the game of petty spirits, and that is by nature a woman's quality.
