More quotes by Tony Blair
Those who wish to cause religious conflict are small in number but often manage to dominate the headline.
Tony Blair
Politics may be the art of the possible but, at least in life, give the impossible a go.
Tony Blair
The art of leadership is saying no, not saying yes. It is very easy to say yes.
Tony Blair
The spread of freedom is the best security for the free.
Tony Blair
There's a huge wave of anti-establishment feeling. There's an enormous amount of anger. And it's collapsing governments and political movements across the world right now.
Tony Blair
I couldn't live with myself if I thought that these big strategic choices for my generation were there, and I wasn't even making them - or I was making them according to what was expedient rather than what I actually thought was right.
Tony Blair
We fall for... the theories of betrayal very easily, and one of the things that's always depressed me about the left, ever since I started in politics, is their ability to imbibe the propaganda of the right and regurgitate it to the left.
Tony Blair
Bill Clinton has been a true leader of the western world. He has been a friend and a counsel to me and other leaders right around the world.
Tony Blair
The moment you stigmatize a whole group of people - for example, Muslims - then, obviously, you make the decent, law-abiding Muslims feel as if they're under threat in some way or that their legitimacy, as members or citizens of society, is brought into question.
Tony Blair
Sometimes it is better to lose and do the right thing than to win and do the wrong thing.
Tony Blair
In government you carry each hope each disillusion. And in politics it's always about the next challenge.
Tony Blair
There are millions of young children being educated to a very narrow-minded view of religion. And it's out of that education of large numbers of young people that you then get this extremism.
Tony Blair
Where radical Islamism is going to be a factor, it's going to be very, very tough.
Tony Blair
The threat today is not that of the 1930s. It's not big powers going to war with each other. The ravages which fundamentalist political ideology inflicted on the 20th century are memories. The Cold war is over. Europe is at peace, if not always diplomatically.
Tony Blair
We are all internationalists now, whether we like it or not...
Tony Blair
I hope that people know me well enough and realise that I would never do anything to harm the country or anything improper. I never have. I think most people who have dealt with me think I am a pretty straight sort of a guy.
Tony Blair
That's the art of leadership. To make sure that what shouldn't happen, doesn't happen.
Tony Blair
What I will say to people is what you require are rules and not prejudices.
Tony Blair
Look, I am very competitive.
Tony Blair
I happen to think it's the politics that makes you electable, but the reason for that is politicians sometimes talk about electability as if it's just a matter of conning the public. Actually, it's a matter of persuading the public, and in my experience, usually, the public gets it right.
Tony Blair
