More quotes by Richard Armitage
I think understanding or comprehension is probably the strongest emotion that you feel, or at least some kind of empathy.
Richard Armitage
I think insanity is the hardest thing to play.
Richard Armitage
You have to remove your human sentiment when it comes to greed and the accumulation of wealth.
Richard Armitage
I think there was a pretty smooth hand-off from the administration of President Clinton to the administration of President Bush, particularly in the counterterrorism area. The reason I say that is because there was, for transitions, I think a stunning continuity.

According to the United Nations Special Commission [UNSCOM], which carried out inspections in Iraq for the better part of a decade, Iraq possesses some 25,000 liters of anthrax. This is, for the record, more than 5 million teaspoons of anthrax. And we have no idea where any of it is. Saddam Hussein has never accounted for one grain of it.

A terrorist is one who kills innocents for the pursuit of a political aim.
Richard Armitage
Sometimes I hate the job that I do as an actor. I feel like I'm just of no importance in the world, but sometimes you get a real thrill out of the diversity of the work.
Richard Armitage

Richard Armitage
I'm probably more of a new man. I'm not particularly alpha. 'Nourish and nurture' are my watchwords as opposed to 'search and destroy'.
Richard Armitage
Well, the United States has said that the disarmament of Iraq is the top priority, but we have also noted that there are many other United Nations Security Council Resolutions which are on the books, including the necessity to respect the human rights of all the citizens of Iraq that we're very interested in.

Richard Armitage
I come from very conservative parents, and we weren't particularly wealthy, but we were comfortable.
Richard Armitage
You can spend a bit of yourself when you give yourself to a character. At the end of a job, you have to remind yourself who and what you are.
Richard Armitage
I think most conflicts do end with negotiated settlements some don't, but most do.
Richard Armitage
Well, I think finding the weapons of mass destruction is going to be quite time consuming. I know we've uncovered some documents, we'll have to exploit them, and we're going to have to blanket a country the size of California and search, I think, quite rigorously, but we'll come up with them.
Richard Armitage
I'm the only honest person in Washington.
Richard Armitage
Diplomacy is much more than just talking to your friends... You've got to talk to people who aren't our friends, and even people you dislike.
Richard Armitage
The war we are fighting today against terrorism is a multifaceted fight. We have to use every tool in our toolkit to wage this war - diplomacy, finance, intelligence, law enforcement, and of course, military power - and we are developing new tools as we go along.
