“While Israel is prepared to make generous compromises for peace, it cannot go back to the 1967 lines…”

I know Donald Trump. I know him very well. And I think his attitude, his support for Israel is clear.

The right combination is between a free economy and social policy that addresses the needs of society and creates equal opportunity.

I think they’re timid, they’re afraid to actually stand up to these killers. And I think that they’re afraid, maybe for their own sake, for their own political hides, sometimes for their own physical safety. And they don’t take that necessary plunge.

I’m not intervening in Syria. But at the same time, if Syria tries to intervene with us, if Iran tries to use Syria to attack us, we’ll stop it.

You can make peace with an enemy, if the enemy abandons the idea of destroying you. That is the critical test. Democracies fail to understand what I just said.

If there is willingness on the Palestinian side to reach an agreement, it is possible. We are conducting the negotiations with goodwill.

We want there to be less friction. We want to remove outposts to help the Palestinian population. We will not reoccupy the Palestinian population.

American leaders worry about the security of their country. Israeli leaders worry about the survival of their country.

I don’t want a single state. And I talked about two states where a demilitarized Palestinian state recognizes the Jewish state, and I stand by that. I haven’t retracted my position; I haven’t changed it.

Donald Trump feels very warmly about the Jewish state, about the Jewish people and about Jewish people. There’s no question about that.

First of all, Arafat is wrong. Jerusalem is Israel’s capital, will never be divided, and will remain the capital of the State of Israel, the capital of the Jewish people, for ever and ever.

If the Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be no more ‎violence. If the Jews put ‎down their weapons ‎today, there would be no ‎more Israel’‎

I am certain that I speak on behalf of my entire nation when I say: Today, we are all Americans. In grief, as in defiance.

We are using missile defense to protect our civilians, and they’re using their civilians to protect their missiles.

The people of Israel will have to be convinced that the Palestinians are ready for peace.

Throw people from the sixth floor, their own people. … They’re the enemies of peace, they’re the enemies of Israel, they’re the enemies of all civilized countries. And I believe they’re the enemies of the Palestinians themselves.

There’s a lot of romance to sort of living by your own rules and sort of not subscribing to what society tells you to do, but society pushes back pretty strongly, so there’s a lot of compromise that goes with that.

It was a compromise. There was a sense that I could write my own memoirs, and Larry [Grobel] would help me down the line, or maybe not, maybe he was too close to me.

Adjust to your surroundings, because the world don’t wait for you.

You want the lyrics to match the melody, because if you are composing a song or recording a song, it’s cacophonous if they don’t match.

I like that Pilates compromises the mind and body. It’s not just about being able to run around the block a few times.

I will not compromise on language or content. At 15, people can handle the same language as me, they’re just as complicated as me and are very interested in thinking about important questions for the first time.

Negotiating means getting the best of your opponent.

We didn’t see [the NBA lockout] as a victory at all.
