A society in which the dignity of the individual is destroyed cannot hope to be a decent society.
Golda Meir

How can I explain the difference to me between America and Russia?.. the America I've known is a place where men on horseback escort union marchers, the Russia I've known is a place where men on horseback slaughter young Socialists and Jews.
Golda Meir
Pessimism is a luxury that a Jew can never allow himself.
Golda Meir
Those who don't know how to weep with their whole heart, don't know how to laugh either.
Golda Meir
