Free nations generally look for ways to deal with dictators amicably  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) Imagine if the United States, in its war against Hitler, had said to Stalin: we don’t want your support until you make your country democratic  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) I have no doubt that given a real choice, the vast majority of Muslims and Arabs, like everyone else will choose a free society over a fear society  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) On the other hand, if the free world is concerned with how a new Palestinian leader governs, then the peace process will have a real chance to succeed  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) The central premise behind Oslo was that if Arafat were given enough legitimacy, territory, weapons and money, he would use his power to fight terror and make peace with Israel  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) The message of the free world to any potential Palestinian leadership should be a simple one: Embrace democratic reform and we will embrace you  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) To understand why dictators have a problem with making peace - or at least a genuine peace - the link between the nature of a regime and its external behavior must be understood  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) Unfortunately, little attention was paid to how Arafat ruled. In fact, some saw the harsh and repressive nature of Arafat’s regime as actually bolstering the prospects for peace  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) Those who warned that Gorbachev was being put under too much pressure were wrong  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) Bush explained his fundamental concept to me, that freedom is not an American invention, but rather a gift from God to all people  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) I am optimistic that peace can be achieved in the region because I believe that every society on earth can be free and that if freedom comes to the Middle East, there can be peace  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) My theory is that security - also against terror - can only be accomplished through global democratization  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) Japan is not a Western democracy. The Japanese have kept their traditions, culture and heritage, but they have joined the community of free nations  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) Bush explained his fundamental concept to me, that freedom is not an American invention, but rather a gift from God to all people.  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) The three main sources of scepticism are first, that not every people desires freedom; second, that democracy in certain parts of the world would be dangerous; and third, that there is little the world’s democracies can do to advance freedom outside their countries.  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) Imagine if the United States, in its war against Hitler, had said to Stalin: we don’t want your support until you make your country democratic.  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) The message of the free world to any potential Palestinian leadership should be a simple one: Embrace democratic reform and we will embrace you.  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) I have no doubt that given a real choice, the vast majority of Muslims and Arabs, like everyone else will choose a free society over a fear society.  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) On the other hand, if the free world is concerned with how a new Palestinian leader governs, then the peace process will have a real chance to succeed.  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) By focusing once and for all on helping the Palestinians build a free society, I have no doubt that an historic compromise between Israelis and Palestinians can be reached and that peace can prevail.  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) By focusing once and for all on helping the Palestinians build a free society, I have no doubt that an historic compromise between Israelis and Palestinians can be reached and that peace can prevail  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) In contrast, fear societies are societies in which dissent is banned  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) Believe me, the drug of freedom is universally potent  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) Free societies are societies in which the right of dissent is protected  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) Of course, there can be serious injustices within free societies  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) I was inspired to write this book by those who are sceptical of the power of freedom to change the world  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) Will dissent be permitted? The answer to that question will determine whether the society is a free society or a fear society  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) Can someone within that society walk into the town square and say what they want without fear of being punished for his or her views? If so, then that society is a free society. If not, it is a fear society  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) My optimism is not based primarily on the successful march of democracy in recent times but rather is based on the experience of having lived in a fear society and studied the mechanics of tyranny that sustain such a society  (Natan Sharansky Quotes) People may believe that there can be a society where dissent is not permitted, but which is nonetheless not a fear society because everyone agrees with one another and therefore no one wants to dissent  (Natan Sharansky Quotes)
