More quotes by Tony Blair
Retreat might give us a moment of respite but years of repentance at our weakness would, I believe, follow.
Tony Blair
I think the single most important political distinction today is actually between open-minded versus closed-minded, and that's why I think this crosses the boundaries of traditional - center-right and center-left have much more in common with each other right now than the right does with the center-right, and the left does with the center-left.
Tony Blair
The appalling details of the campaign of intimidation - which include grave-robbing - show the depths to which the animal extremists are prepared to stoop.
Tony Blair
It's not a burning ambition for me to make sure that David Beckham earns less money.
Tony Blair
I abhor Saddam's regime, but the basis has to be disarmament.
Tony Blair
For me, 9/11 was a game changer. It altered my perception of the security threat we faced. I took the position that Britain should be shoulder to shoulder with the U.S. It was a big decision I didn't take it lightly, or in ignorance of its consequences. It's a big commitment for a country to give, but I believed it was the right thing to do.
Tony Blair
I say to the Taliban: surrender the terrorists or surrender power. It's your choice.
Tony Blair
People divide into groups where they talk to each other, but don't talk across the divide. And yet most of the challenges we face in the world today are challenges that are to do with trade, with technology, with how you make sure that people are properly educated, reform your health care system.
Tony Blair
If I'd proposed solving the pension problem by compulsory euthanasia for every fifth pensioner I'd have got less trouble for it.
Tony Blair
The free enterprise system has not failed the financial system has failed.
Tony Blair
Where radical Islamism is going to be a factor, it's going to be very, very tough.
Tony Blair
We are going to expand enormously -- our economy, our consumption, over the years to come ... But the consequences of that on emissions are going to be severe unless we change direction.
Tony Blair
What I'm really more interested in doing - because I think, in a way that's kind of obvious - and you can see, look into Austria - you've got a far-right candidate who may become the president because he's in a close-run race.
Tony Blair
We have taken a situation in the U.K. because of concerns, for example, over immigration and other things, so Britain now is on a path out of Europe.
Tony Blair
This is not a battle between the United States of America and terrorism, but between the free and democratic world and terrorism.
Tony Blair
...we must support and protect individuals and companies engaged in life saving medical research
Tony Blair
The kaleidoscope has been shaken. The pieces are in flux. Soon they will settle again. Before they do, let us re-order this world around us.
Tony Blair
Every so often, I feel I should graduate to classical music, properly. But the truth is, I'm more likely to listen to rock music.
Tony Blair
We expected, I expected to find actual usable, chemical or biological weapons after we entered Iraq. But I have to accept, as the months have passed, it seems increasingly clear that at the time of invasion, Saddam did not have stockpiles of chemical or biological weapons ready to deploy.
Tony Blair
Today the impulse towards interdependence is immeasurably greater. We are witnessing the beginnings of a new doctrine of international community.
Tony Blair
