Text Quotes
I’m always amazed at how much people ‘get’ when I’m performing overseas. I’ve never had to change my act on my international shows; I just make sure that I’ve taken some time to get to know the people in those countries before I perform. That’s been really useful.  (Countries Quotes) We do not covet one inch of Lebanese territory, and the basis for the peace treaty between our two countries will be the international border, which exists now, between Rosh Haniqra and Ras en Naqura.  (Countries Quotes) I think one of the things that distinguished my work from the beginning when I was in college was my turning towards poetry from other countries.  (Countries Quotes) At the beginning of the twentieth century, every single leading Muslim intellectual was in love with the west, and wanted their countries to look just like Britain and France.  (Countries Quotes) The Vatican has always had a core of diplomats for centuries. It has ambassadors in 180 countries and always played a kind of behind-the-scene role in many world issues.  (Countries Quotes) The Global Fund is a central player in the progress being achieved on HIV, TB and malaria. It channels resources to help countries fight these diseases. I believe in its impact because I have seen it firsthand.  (Countries Quotes) What really distinguishes this generation in all countries from earlier generations ... is its determination to act, its joy in action, the assurance of being able to change things by one’s own efforts.  (Countries Quotes) I just started taking Mandarin classes. I love the idea of globalization: of being able to work in different countries.  (Countries Quotes) And Israel, being a tiny, small country, of course has interest to strengthen - we have interest to strengthen our relations with other countries, mostly countries that were hostile for many, many years.  (Countries Quotes) Norway’s a very gender-aware country, and we’re very liberal. There are lots of women’s voices being heard here compared to many other countries.  (Countries Quotes) I drove 3,500 miles this summer on our family holiday, we drove across 10 countries. I have driven across the United States four times. I love cars, I love being in cars, I think so do most people. I want to help and support those people who have that same kind of enthusiasm for driving that I have.  (Countries Quotes) NATO has a special relationship with countries far away from Europe: Australia, Japan, South Korea. They have joint projects and programmes which are being implemented without these countries becoming members of NATO.  (Countries Quotes) Help is even being offered from across the ocean, as over two dozen countries have stepped forward to offer financial and material support to the American people.  (Countries Quotes) There’s a long record here of being wrong. There’s a good reason for it. There are probably multiple reasons. Certainly proliferation is a hard thing to track, particularly in countries that deny easy and free access and don’t have free and open societies.  (Countries Quotes) In many countries, schools are preparing students to participate in a democratic environment; yet schools themselves tend to be extremely autocratic, with all high-level decisions being made by adults.  (Countries Quotes) I would like to draw your attention to the fact that in Russia, unlike in one third of the world’s countries, being gay is not a crime.  (Countries Quotes) Having read the histories of other countries, I saw that expansion was everything, and that the world’s surface being limited, the great object of present humanity should be to take as much of the world as it possibly could.  (Countries Quotes) Countries which receive aid do graduate. Within a generation, Korea went from being a big recipient to being a big aid donor. China used to get quite a bit of aid; now it’s aid-neutral.  (Countries Quotes) An American champion, obviously being here in the states, is something that we all look at with the U.S. Open. But golf is played all over the world, and there are so many great golfers from other countries, and we’re lucky enough that this is our home base to be able to play out of.  (Countries Quotes) And why is our music called world music? I think people are being polite. What they want to say is that it’s third world music. Like they use to call us under developed countries, now it has changed to developing countries, it’s much more polite.  (Countries Quotes) Today, being the biggest developing countries in the world, China and India are both committed to developing their economy and raising their people’s living standards.  (Countries Quotes) Crime stories are our version of sitting round a camp fire and telling tales. We enjoy being scared under safe circumstances. That’s why there’s no tradition of crime writing in countries that have wars.  (Countries Quotes) Entrepreneurialism, to me, means being able to fail. And I believe that kind of leadership is not necessary only in business, but it’s necessary for running countries, too. You’ve got to be able to believe in something strongly enough that you want to do it even if there’s a risk of failure.  (Countries Quotes) I think I’m being conservative when I say there are more people playing soccer in the United States than in 90% of the world’s other countries, probably 95%.  (Countries Quotes) Still, in international matters, the treaty changes nothing. That is, it doesn’t prevent us from being friends with other countries, which indeed we are.  (Countries Quotes) I never trust the airlines from those countries where the pilots believe in the afterlife. You are safer when they don’t.  (Countries Quotes) Not many countries establish a prize for peace. The Seoul Peace Prize has its roots in the 1988 Summer Olympics when this country opened its doors to people and athletes from more than 160 countries. Korea did so in part because it believes in the power of sports for peace and development.  (Countries Quotes) In countries with a properly functioning legal system, the mob continues to exist, but it is rarely called upon to mete out capital punishment. The right to take human life belongs to the state. Not so in societies where weak courts and poor law enforcement are combined with intractable structural injustices.  (Countries Quotes) Experience in other countries shows how big money, rather than the best political candidate, can influence politics.  (Countries Quotes) The poorest parts of the world are by and large the places in which one can best view the worst of medicine and not because doctors in these countries have different ideas about what constitutes modern medicine. It’s the system and its limitations that are to blame.  (Countries Quotes)
