More quotes by 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 will not rest until we reach a permanent agreement [with the Palestinians] that would secure a safe future for our children and that would provide us with renewed hope to live in a region where people lead a life of co-operation and not, God forbid, where blood is shed.
Yitzhak Rabin
Peace will be victorious.
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
Only the change on the international scene, the crisis in the gulf, and the strong, firm position of the United States against aggression between two Arab countries created realities that led to the Madrid Peace Conference.
Yitzhak Rabin
I, serial number 30743, Major General Yitzhak Rabin, am a soldier in the army of peace.
Yitzhak Rabin
Enough of blood and tears. Enough!
Yitzhak Rabin
We have to recognize that there is a Palestinian entity, that the PLO and the Palestinian Authority has to run their life.
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
We will not leave the Golan Heights, not even in exchange for a peace treaty. We will be ready for a limited compromise and it does not have to be in territorial terms.
Yitzhak Rabin
Peace has no borders.
Yitzhak Rabin
Israel has an important principle: It is only Israel that is responsible for our security.
Yitzhak Rabin
I considered the prevention of war as the test of our security policy in addition to being able to rapidly and forcefully end any war forced upon us.
Yitzhak Rabin
We did not think that [Egyptian President] Nasser wanted war. The two divisions he sent to Sinai on May 14 would not have been sufficient to launch an offensive against Israel. He knew it and we knew it.
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 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
[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
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
Syria doesn't want to talk with us on a bilateral basis, only under the auspices of the United States.
Yitzhak Rabin
Military cemeteries in every corner of the world are silent testimony to the failure of national leaders to sanctify human life.
