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
Steps toward a rapprochement between Israel and the Arab states create a process that turns economics into the moving force that shapes the regional relations instead of nationalist interests that were dominant in the past.
Yitzhak Rabin
It is the duty of the government to guarantee maximum security, and this is not an easy task.
Yitzhak Rabin
You have got to sit down and talk to people. You can't understand people from a distance.

We do not celebrate the death of our enemies.
Yitzhak Rabin
No Arab ruler will consider the peace process seriously so long as he is able to toy with the idea of achieving more by the way of violence.
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
[Israel will] create in the course of the next 10 or 20 years conditions which would attract natural and voluntary migration of the refugees from the Gaza Strip and the west Bank to Jordan. To achieve this we have to come to agreement with King Hussein and not with Yasser Arafat.
Yitzhak Rabin
Practically the only way to dry the swamp of radical Islam is through economic development and an improved standard of living.
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.
