More quotes by Yitzhak Rabin
You have got to sit down and talk to people. You can't understand people from a distance.
Yitzhak Rabin
It is my hope that I could be not just a Prime Minister, but a Prime Minister for Aboriginal affairs, the first I imagine that we've ever had.
Yitzhak Rabin
We are ready to compromise. We are ready to take calculated risks, but for a peace that will give us security.
Yitzhak Rabin
Indigenous programs and policy will come within the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet because Indigenous policy and programs should not be an add - on, they should not be an afterthought, but they should be at the heart of a good Australian Government.
Yitzhak Rabin
We can continue to fight. We can continue to kill - and continue to be killed. But we can also try to put a stop to this never-ending cycle of blood. We can also give peace a chance.
Yitzhak Rabin
I believe that it is my responsibility as the prime minister of Israel to do whatever can be done to exploit the unique opportunities that lie ahead of us to move towards peace. Not everything can be done by one act.
Yitzhak Rabin
We do not celebrate the death of our enemies.

Yitzhak Rabin
A couple of things are missing from Indigenous affairs. We tend to go and process, we tend to spend a lot of money for very limited outcomes, and we have got to change that.
Yitzhak Rabin
I was a military man for 27 years. I fought so long as there was no chance for peace. I believe that there is now a chance for peace, a great chance. We must take advantage of it for the sake of those standing here, and for those who are not here - and they are many.
Yitzhak Rabin
I am 73 years old. I was born in Jerusalem. I'm the first prime minister of Israel to be born here. I am the only former general to become a prime minister.
Yitzhak Rabin
What I, as the prime minister of the present government of Israel, started to do, is first to tackle the longest part of the Arab-Israeli conflict, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
Yitzhak Rabin
A diplomatic peace is not yet the real peace. It is an essential step in the peace process leading towards a real peace.
Yitzhak Rabin
We appreciate the efforts of the United States, of the president, of the secretary of state, and we are ready to find any form of talks, but we have to overcome the differences between Syria and Israel to reach peace.
Yitzhak Rabin
The Government chose to give peace a chance. The Government chose to do something to achieve it.
Yitzhak Rabin
The negotiations must address all aspects, both peace and withdrawal.
Yitzhak Rabin
I would like Israel to be a Jewish state, and therefore not to annex over 2 million Palestinians who live in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip to Israel, which will make Israel a bi-national state.
Yitzhak Rabin
One of my theories about why we've been cranky is Australians have been forced to focus on politics or party politics a little bit more than they normally would.
Yitzhak Rabin
We must think differently, look at things in a different way. Peace requires a world of new concepts, new definitions.
