So interviews are a valuable tool, but under certain circumstances they'd be more valuable than others.

What surprises me, what amazes me, is that it seems the military people were expecting to stumble on large quantities of gas, chemical weapons and biological weapons.

Iraq did not spontaneously opt for disarmament. They did it as part of a ceasefire, so they were forced to do it, otherwise the war might have gone on. So the motivation has been very different.

Never humiliate anyone.

International cooperation, multilateralism is indispensable.

Like I said, I'm more worried long term about the environmental issues then the use of arms.

Disarmament by war and democracy by occupation are difficult prospects.

I found it peculiar that those who wanted to take military action could - with 100 per cent certainty - know that the weapons existed and turn out to have zero knowledge of where they were.

If you take the biological weapons in the United States we still will have perhaps a single individual who was able to make anthrax, dry it, and spread it through the mail and cause terror.

But I would say if the Security Council is only relevant if it agrees with the United States, then we have come a long way in a direction that I do not like very much.

To me the question of the environment is more ominous than that of peace and war...I'm more worried about global warming than I am of any major military conflict.

My dreams couldn't defeat me!

Hope says to us constantly "go on go on " and leads us to the grave.

Only those who love with the heart can animate the love of others.

I will defend Korea as I would my own country-just as I would California.

When you stop fighting, that's death.

One day I promised God that if he would give me my voice back I would never smoke again. I got three octaves back after quitting.

An inspiring word for me is to think of myself as limitless.

Speak but little and well, if you would be esteemed as a man of merit.

I past another telkhine, who was so startled he dropped his Lil' Demons lunch box. I left him alive - partly because he had a cool lunch box.

I didn't know what some of the stuff on Astral Weeks was about until years later.
