Golda Meir
Israel itself is the strongest guarantee against another Holocaust.
Golda Meir
Those who don't know how to weep with their whole heart, don't know how to laugh either.
Golda Meir
It's no accident many accuse me of conducting public affairs with my heart instead of my head. Well, what if I do?.. Those who don't know how to weep with their whole heart don't know how to laugh either.
Golda Meir
There will be peace in the Middle East only when the Arabs love their children more than they hate Israel.
Golda Meir

Golda Meir
I can honestly say that I was never affected by the question of the success of an undertaking. If I felt it was the right thing to do, I was for it regardless of the possible outcome.
Golda Meir
It is not a sin to be seventy but it is also no joke.
Golda Meir
But the individual was not a tool for something. He was the maker of tools. He was the one who must build. Even for the best purpose it is criminal to turn an individual into simply a means for some ultimate end. A society in which the dignity of the individual is destroyed cannot hope to be a decent society.
Golda Meir
Once in a Cabinet we had to deal with the fact that there had been an outbreak of assaults on women at night. One minister suggested a curfew women should stay home after dark. I said, 'But it's the men who are attacking the women. If there's to be a curfew, let the men stay home, not the women.
Golda Meir
It is true we have won all our wars, but we have paid for them. We don't want victories anymore.
Golda Meir
We say peace and the echo comes back from the other side, war. We dont want wars even when we win.
Golda Meir
Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement.
Golda Meir
It is not only a matter, I believe, of religious observance and practice. To me, being Jewish means and has always meant being proud to be part of a people that has maintained its distinct identity for more than 2,000 years, with all the pain and torment that has been inflicted upon it.
Golda Meir
There is no such thing as a Palestinian people... It is not as if we came and threw them out and took their country. They didn't exist.
Golda Meir
We Jews have a secret weapon in our struggle with the Arabs we have no place to go.
Golda Meir
We will not forgive you for making us kill your sons.
Golda Meir
Pessimism is a luxury that a Jew can never allow himself.
Golda Meir
I'm a slave to this leaf in a diary that lists what I must do, what I must say, every half hour.
