More quotes by Yasser Arafat
I had support - I had started it, not to forget.
Yasser Arafat
Choose your friends carefully. Your enemies will choose you.
Yasser Arafat
When American administration will find that their interest is to follow up with the international conference and to find peace in this area, they will search not only for me, but for any Palestinian to speak with him. And they will say, We have five million Arabs in the United States. We can't avoid them.
Yasser Arafat
Peace for us means the destruction of Israel. We are preparing for an all-out war, a war which will last for generations...
Yasser Arafat
We completely condemn this very dangerous attack, and I convey my condolences to the American people, to the American president and to the American administration, not only in my name, but on behalf of the Palestinian people.
Yasser Arafat
Who imagined that what I said upon my departure from Beirut would become a reality, when I said the volcano and typhoon which started in Beirut will not stop.
Yasser Arafat
The victory march will continue until the Palestinian flag flies in Jerusalem and in all of Palestine.
Yasser Arafat
I come bearing an olive branch in one hand, and the freedom fighter's gun in the other. Do not let the olive branch fall from my hand.
Yasser Arafat
Let us be worthy of those who pin their hopes on us. May God bless you with success.
Yasser Arafat
Martyrs, martyrs, martyrs,... we want a million martyrs to march on Jerusalem.
Yasser Arafat
We plan to eliminate the state of Israel and establish a purely Palestinian state. We will make life unbearable for Jews by psychological warfare and population explosion. We Palestinians will take over everything, including all of Jerusalem.
Yasser Arafat
Palestine is only a stones throw away for a small Palestinian boy or girl.
Yasser Arafat
We do not want to destroy any people. It is precisely because we have been advocating coexistence that we have shed so much blood.
Yasser Arafat
If there is any Arab problem we can solve it inside the Arab League. But we are going to deal with the other side, with the Israelis.... It is not me who will decide who will invite, to speak frankly. It is not me, it is not the Arab side, it is not the Israelis who will decide who will invite.
Yasser Arafat
We are a democratic - we are living in democracy.
Yasser Arafat
I am looking to have a place under the sun for our new generations to live in peace far away from repression, from terrorism, to live as human beings freely in this free world. That is what I am looking for. I am not asking for the moon. I am asking for the United Nations legality to be implemented.
Yasser Arafat
I have a solution. I agree for the United Nations forces to be on the borders between me and them for any period of time. Okay? Ezer Weizman challenged me a few days ago to accept an Israeli - Palestinian confederation.
Yasser Arafat
I am not receiving orders from Ariel Sharon.
Yasser Arafat
Still, the American administration is following blindly the Israeli advisers in your policy, while they are pushing you to more and more disasters.
Yasser Arafat
I am challenging Ezer Weizman to accept the democratic state where both of us can live in this democratic state. What confederation? No. One democratic state. He declared one offer, I am declaring the other offer. With two communities.
Yasser Arafat
