Rush LimbaughBut how do European railways manage without them? How do they continue to convey millions of travellers and mountains of luggage across a continent? If companies owning railways have been able to agree, why should railway workers, who would take possession of railways, not agree likewise?

Peter KropotkinWhat people generally tell you is, "We'll all agree," and then once you sign, they expect to get their own way. I think it was a bit of a surprise that I was still very headstrong even after signing. I wasn't so happy to get a deal that I would agree to anything.

But they wanted the record to come out, and I wanted the record to come out, so we had to work together.

Jeffrey KlugerFailing at something is one thing, but Buddhism tells us that it is up to us how we interpret that failure [Buddhism] a philosophy and way of life that resonates with me I identify with it. I agree with so much of the sentiment behind it.

But I'm the president of the United States, and the nation-state by definition means that boundaries mean something and borders mean something.

Cornelia FunkeIn one question you are expressing a world of opinion. Because it is you who thinks that America has been mistakenly starting these conflicts. I happen to agree with you, and I will repeat what your question suggested...we have mistakenly gotten into one fracas after another.

If you wanted to live longer, you could keep flying to the east so the speed of the plane added to the earth

Daniel DennettOf course there are collaborations. But in official meetings with Western diplomats from the US and the European Union, the major issues of our relationships are simply not discussed.

They should stop using pompous orchestrated summits and begin a serious dialogue with small meetings.
