What connects two thousand years of genocide? Too much power in too few hands.

When history looks back, I want people to know that the Nazis could not kill millions of people with impunity.

The end was surely near. The Nazis killed you only when you were naked, because they knew, psychologically, that naked people never resist.

The schools would fail through their silence, the Church through its forgiveness, and the home through the denial and silence of the parents. The new generation has to hear what the older generation refuses to tell it.

Technology without hatred can be a blessing. Technology with hatred is always a disaster.

For evil to flourish, it only requires good men to do nothing.

The history of man is the history of crimes, and history can repeat. So information is a defence. Through this we can build, we must build, a defence against repetition.

For your benefit, learn from our tragedy. It is not a written law that the next victims must be Jews. It can also be other people.

Justice for crimes against humanity must have no limitations.

God must have been on leave during the Holocaust.

Survival is a privilege which entails obligations. I am forever asking myself what I can do for those who have not survived.

I know I am not only the bad conscience of the Nazis. I am also the bad conscience of the Jews. Because what I have taken up as my duty was everybody's duty.

The combination of hatred and technology is the greatest danger threatening mankind.

Violence is like a weed - it does not die even in the greatest drought.

There is no denying that Hitler and Stalin are alive today... they are waiting for us to forget, because this is what makes possible the resurrection of these two monsters.

Humour is the weapon of unarmed people: it helps people who are oppressed to smile at the situation that pains them.

Discovering witnesses is just as important as catching criminals.

We know that we are not collectively guilty, so how can we accuse any other nation, no matter what some of its people have done, of being collectively guilty?

Camaraderie ends when crime begins.

Forgetting is something time alone takes care of but forgiveness is an act of volition and only the sufferer is qualified to make the decision

Our campaign is powered by college students who are not about to let the first genocide of the 21st century happen on their watch.

The 20th century taught us how far unbridled evil can and will go when the world fails to confront it. It is time that we heed the lessons of the 20th century and stand up to these murderers. It is time that we end genocide in the 21st century.

Mr. Speaker, genocide is the most potent of all crimes against humanity because it is an effort to systematically wipe out a people and a culture as well as individual lives.

A genocide in Africa has not received the same attention that genocide in Europe or genocide in Turkey or genocide in other part of the world. There is still this kind of basic discrimination against the African people and the African problems.

Genocide is an attempt to exterminate a people, not to alter their behavior.

But if Russia is to be part of this larger zone of peace it cannot bring into it its imperial baggage. It cannot bring into it a policy of genocide against the Chechens, and cannot kill journalists, and it cannot repress the mass media.

You will be judged in years to come by how you responded to genocide on your watch.

Despite all the lunacy of the last century, all the absurdity of war and genocide, we believe that humans being are rational and are made to seek the truth.

The government lied about inventing the HIV virus as a means of genocide against people of color. The government lied.

We may yet work up to some serious shooting war, or maybe some acts of urban genocide committed with rogue nuclear weapons. But if that were the case, why would we call that "9/11"? If Washington disappeared in a mushroom cloud, we'd give that huge event a different name.

If Turkey is prepared to acknowledge the Armenian Genocide, then its leaders can proceed immediately to direct dialogue with its counterparts in Armenia to define a common vision for the future.

Israel is now sustaining a war for its own existence. A nation defending its citizens against terrorist bombings and a military and diplomatic onslaught by an array of Arab foes is practicing survival, not genocide.

Some argue that recognition of the genocide has become even more problematic now, when the world is at war with terrorism and the United States cannot afford to offend the sensibility of our Turkish ally.

With faith and courage, generations of Armenians have overcome great suffering and proudly preserved their culture, traditions, and religion and have told the story of the genocide to an often indifferent world.

You can talk about Holocaust denial, but it's really marginal for the most part. What is compelling about the Armenian genocide, is how it has been forgotten.

As a Republican, I voted with President Clinton consistently in our efforts to bail out our European friends in Kosovo to stop genocide. I am proud of those votes. I am proud of President Clinton for that.

Genocide begins, however improbably, in the conviction that classes of biological distinction indisputably sanction social and political discrimination.

It makes it difficult to decide which to go see, since no film about say, some tragic genocide in Africa is going to get a bad review even if it's poorly made.

If President Bush is serious about genocide, an immediate priority is to stop the cancer of Darfur from spreading further, which means working with France to shore up Chad and the Central African Republic.

I believe the only time when we can call for intervention is when there is an ongoing genocide.

Words without deeds violates the moral and legal obligation we have under the genocide convention but, more importantly, violates our sense of right and wrong and the standards we have as human beings about looking to care for one another.

But at the beginning, our definition of the genocide was what happened to Armenia in 1917 or 1919, it's happened to the Jew in Europe, and we were not realizing - In our point of view, they have not the tools to do a genocide.

So let us call genocide, genocide. Let us not minimize the deliberate murder of 1.5 million people. Let us have a moral victory that can shine as a light to all nations.

Committing genocide on behalf of an institution generates greater loyalty to it than merely getting people fired from their jobs on its behalf.

There aren't just bad people that commit genocide; we are all capable of it. It's our evolutionary history.
