AIDS does not inevitably lead to death, especially if you suppress the co-factors that support the disease. It is very important to tell this to people who are infected.

I think we should put the same weight now on the co-factors as we have on HIV.

It's clear that prevention will never be sufficient. That's why we need a vaccine that will be safe.

Basic research is very useful, but it should be more geared toward application than it was before.

We don't know why, but there are some gradients of infection.

The idea of the live-virus vaccine is to produce in a continuous way some viral antigens.

Our goal is not to completely eradicate the infection - that would be very difficult - but to produce a vaccine that will prevent not infection but disease. I think this is more possible.

I've participated in meetings where there were concerns by ethical experts. There is no clear solution.

AIDS win be our first priority, but in two years' time we don't know where AIDS research will stand, so we are also thinking of activity on other diseases.

Psychological factors are critical in supporting immune function. If you suppress this psychological support by telling someone he's condemned to die, your words alone will have condemned him.

We can be exposed to HIV many times without being chronically infected. Our immune system will get rid of the virus within a few weeks, if you have a good immune system.

Time is a created thing. To say 'I don't have time, ' is like saying, 'I don't want to.

No Santa Claus! Thank God he lives and he lives forever. A thousand years from now Virginia nay ten times ten thousand years from now he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood.

A wise ruler ought never to keep faith when by doing so it would be against his interests.

The best advice I have been given is to live in the moment, as cliché as that sounds. It's crazy.

The very idea of freedom presupposes some objective moral law which overarches rulers and ruled alike...Unless we return to the crude and nursery-like belief in objective values, we perish.

Anyone who says there isn't pressure to look good as an actor in L.A. is lying.

Indulgence in resentment and vengeance will only further increase miseries to oneself and others in this life and in lives to come.

Over the last couple of years I have gotten an average of 2,000 letters a week from fans.

The only basis for living is believing in life, loving it, and applying the whole force of one's intellect to know it better.

If your only tool is a hammer, everything starts to look like a nail.
