More quotes by Yasser Arafat
Palestine is only a stones throw away for a small Palestinian boy or girl.
Yasser Arafat
The Israelis are mistaken if they think we do not have an alternative to negotiations. By Allah I swear they are wrong. The Palestinian people are prepared to sacrifice the last boy and the last girl so that the Palestinian flag will be flown over the walls, the churches and the mosques of Jerusalem.
Yasser Arafat
I am convinced that our people are now on the way to establishing a Palestinian state. The agreement signed in Cairo is the first step in establishing the state, and therefore it should be implemented.
Yasser Arafat
The obstacle is the USA administration. I know there is a strong Israeli lobby in America, no doubt of it.
Yasser Arafat
All religious wars are about people arguing over who has the biggest invisible friend.
Yasser Arafat
This is my homeland no one can kick me out.
Yasser Arafat
Our law is a Jordanian law that we inherited, which applies to both the West Bank and Gaza, and sets the death penalty for those who sell land to Israelis.
Yasser Arafat
We are a democratic - we are living in democracy.
Yasser Arafat
[Adolf] Hitler succeeded once upon a time to conquer all the big powers within two or three years and occupied all Europe, North Africa, and arrived at the gates of Moscow. This is not the real power. Real power is something completely different.
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
Whoever stands by a just cause cannot possibly be called a terrorist.
Yasser Arafat
I want to tell Carter and Begin that when the Arabs set off their volcano there will be only Arabs in this part of the world... Our people will continue to fuel the torch of the revolution with rivers of blood until the whole of the occupied homeland is liberated, the whole of the homeland is liberated, not just a part of it.
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
Where is [Ariel] Sharon who, planning to be one of the big heroes of Israel, became one of the killers, criminals, killing our small kids in Sabra and Chatila. Where is Alexander Haig?
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
Choose your friends carefully. Your enemies will choose you.
Yasser Arafat
It is another face in the new atmosphere of many leaders inside Israel. No doubt it is something new. Actually, Ezer Weizman is a Palestinian. He was born in Haifa.
Yasser Arafat
The Amman Agreement failed because there was American pressure, and Israeli pressure, on Jordan to deal alone.
Yasser Arafat
Peace cannot be achieved except after the cessation of military escalation and the economic and financial siege.
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
