More quotes by Ariel Sharon
When I was born here on one of the farms in Israel, my childhood, I never thought for one day that we will not be living together with Arabs.
Ariel Sharon
In Lebanon, there was an agreement not to liquidate Yasser Arafat. In principle, I'm sorry that we didn't liquidate him.
Ariel Sharon
For me, peace should provide security to the Jewish people.
Ariel Sharon
Arabs may have the oil, but we have the matches.
Ariel Sharon
And Israel, being a tiny, small country, of course has interest to strengthen - we have interest to strengthen our relations with other countries, mostly countries that were hostile for many, many years.
Ariel Sharon
Legitimate steps of self-defence which Israel takes in its war against Palestinian terror - actions which any sovereign state is obligated to undertake to ensure the security of its citizens - are presented by those who hate Israel as aggressive, Nazi-like steps.
Ariel Sharon
A rabbi told me that when you have two problems - one near, one not so near - concentrate on the immediate one.
Ariel Sharon
It is the duty of Israeli leaders to explain to public opinion, clearly and courageously, a certain number of facts that are forgotten with time. The first of these is that there is no Zionism, colonialization, or Jewish State without the eviction of the Arabs and the expropriation of their lands.
Ariel Sharon
My mood altered and the pain turned to rage.
Ariel Sharon
Like all Israelis, I yearn for peace. I see the utmost importance in taking all possible steps that will lead to a solution of the conflict with the Palestinians.
Ariel Sharon
The ongoing conflict between us has caused heavy suffering to both peoples. The future can and must be different. Both our peoples are destined to live together side by side, on this small piece of land. This reality we cannot change.
Ariel Sharon
I was born on a farm. My strength has nothing to do with political apparatus. I get my strength from nature, from flowers.
Ariel Sharon
It is impossible to have a Jewish, democratic state and at the same time to control all of Eretz Israel. If we insist on fulfilling the dream in its entirety, we are liable to lose it all. Everything. That is where the extremist path takes us.
Ariel Sharon
I am ready to compromise, but there is one thing I won't compromise on: the safety of the Israeli people.
Ariel Sharon
We have evidence that Iran makes a reactor to possess nuclear weapons.
Ariel Sharon
I would like to be on the farm. To ride the horses. To watch the cattle, and the plantations, and the beautiful vegetables that my sons are growing there. I would like it. I am one of those who do not have to worry about what I am doing later. I love the fields.
Ariel Sharon
You cannot like the word, but what is happening is an occupation - to hold 3.5 million Palestinians under occupation. I believe that is a terrible thing for Israel and for the Palestinians.
Ariel Sharon
We do not build new Jewish communities in Samaria, Judea and Gaza. The United States has never accepted our building of communities or of the fence. Yet, I've managed to develop relations between Israel and the United States even though President Bush never supported settlements.
Ariel Sharon
Both during the elections and as Prime Minister, I have repeatedly and publicly said that I support the establishment of a Palestinian state alongside the State of Israel.
Ariel Sharon
A lie should be tried in a place where it will attract the attention of the world.
