More From Natan Sharansky

What is the value of having millions of people in iraq not having a repressive regime? what is the value of having the iraqi regime not shooting at uk and us aircraft almost every day? what is the value of the iraqis having a free press? what is the value of the foreign minister of iraq going to paris, calling for an end of the gadhafi regime and citing iraq as a model, as an example, that in fact a freer political system can exist in that part of the world?
Iraq Paris People
I did not suggest that iran is a democracy; just the opposite. i talked about it being a repressive theocracy. what i think is indisputable is that even within this repressive regime, the political leaders there - including the supreme leader - are sensitive to the concerns of the population within bounds.
Thinking Iran Opposites
The promotion of human rights cannot be about exhortation alone. at times, it must be coupled with painstaking diplomacy. i know that engagement with repressive regimes lacks the satisfying purity of indignation. but i also know that sanctions without outreach -- condemnation without discussion -- can carry forward only a crippling status quo. no repressive regime can move down a new path unless it has the choice of an open door.

A few really dedicated people can offset the masses of out of harmony people, so we who work for peace must not falter, we must continue to pray for peace and to act for peace in whatever way we can. we must continue to speak for peace and to live the way of peace; to inspire others, we must continue to think of peace and know that peace is possible. what we dwell upon we help bring to manifestation. one little person giving all of her time to peace makes news. many people giving some of their time can make history.
Peace Thinking People
Arafat rejected the deal because, as a dictator who had directed all his energies toward strengthening the palestinians hatred toward israel, arafat could not afford to make peace.
Peace Israel Hatred
We can work on inner peace and world peace at the same time. on one hand, people have found inner peace by losing themselves in a cause larger than themselves, like the cause of world peace, because finding inner peace means coming from the self-centered life into the life centered in the good of the whole. on the other hand, one of the ways of working for world peace is to work for more inner peace, because world peace will never be stable until enough of us find inner peace to stabilize it.
Peace Mean Self
Similar Quotes
We must move past indecision to action. we must find new ways to speak for peace in vietnam and for justice throughout the developing world, a world that borders on our doors. if we do not act, we shall surely be dragged down the long, dark, and shameful corridors of time reserved for those who possess power without compassion, might without morality, and strength without sight.
Peace War Moving
If you want to know when a war might be coming, you just watch the u.s. and see when it starts cutting down on its defenses. it's the surest barometer in the world.
Peace War Cutting
The institutions of human society treat us as parts of a machine. they assign us ranks and place considerable pressure upon us to fulfill defined roles. we need something to help us restore our lost and distorted humanity. each of us has feelings that have been suppressed and have built up inside. there is a voiceless cry resting in the depths of our souls, waiting for expression. art gives the soul's feelings voice and form.
Karma Art Peace
The peace of heaven is theirs that lift their swords, in such a just and charitable war.
