It is true we have won all our wars, but we have paid for them. We don't want victories anymore.
Golda Meir
Image
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
Image
the modern woman asks herself: Is there something wrong with me if my children don't fill up my life?
Golda Meir
Image
Anybody who believes in something without reservation believes that this thing is right and should be, has the stamina to meet obstacles and overcome them.
Golda Meir
Image
My dear, old age is like an airplane flying in a storm. Once you're in it there's nothing you can do. You can't stop a plane, you can't stop a storm, you can't stop time. So you might as well take it easy, with wisdom.

The only alternative to war is peace and the only road to peace is negotiations.

Any one who speaks in favor of bringing the Arab refugees back must also say how he expects to take the responsibility for it, if he is interested in the state of Israel. It is better that things are stated clearly and plainly: We shall not let this happen.
Golda Meir
Image
I have always felt sorry for people afraid of feeling, of sentimentality, who are unable to weep with their whole heart. Because those who do not know how to weep do not know how to laugh either.
Golda Meir
Image
We do not rejoice in victories. We rejoice when a new kind of cotton is grown and when strawberries bloom in Israel.
Golda Meir
Image
At work, you think of the children you have left at home. At home, you think of the work you've left unfinished. Such a struggle is unleashed within yourself. Your heart is rent.
Golda Meir
Image
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
Image
We say peace and the echo comes back from the other side, war. We dont want wars even when we win.
Golda Meir
Image
We will not forgive you for making us kill your sons.
Golda Meir
Image
Don't become cynical. Don't give up hope. Don't believe that everything is judged only by expediency. There is idealism in this world. There is human brotherhood.
Golda Meir
Image
Being seventy is not a sin. It's not a joy, either.
Golda Meir
Image
It is always much easier, I have discovered, to make people cry or gasp than to make them think.
Golda Meir
Image
Israel itself is the strongest guarantee against another Holocaust.
Golda Meir
Image
I'm a slave to this leaf in a diary that lists what I must do, what I must say, every half hour.

Fashion is an imposition, a reign on freedom.

You can get used to anything if you have to, even feeling perpetually guilty.
