We need new partnerships for peace and security.

Globalisation has made us more vulnerable. It creates a world without borders, and makes us painfully aware of the limitations of our present instruments, and of politics, to meet its challenges.

Firstly, economic globalisation has brought prosperity and development to many countries, but also financial crises to Asia, Latin America and Russia, and increasing poverty and marginalisation.

Globalisation makes it clear that social responsibility is required not only of governments, but of companies and individuals. All sources must interact in order to reach the MDGs.

We urge President Bush to abstain from the National Missile Defense, just as we urge China, India and Pakistan to discontinue their nuclear arsenals.

Global markets must be balanced by global values such as respect for human rights and international law, democracy, security and sustainable economic and environmental development.

The United Nations remains our most important global actor. These days we are continuously reminded of the enormous responsibility of the Security Council to uphold international peace and stability.

In a case like Iraq the UN has again shown what important role it plays as the guarantor for protecting international peace and stability in the global political structure.

Regional exchange can be a source of growth and development, and of enhancing good governance.

The WTO has one of the most impressive records in global economic governance, by promoting trade liberalisation and economic development.

Everyday should be Christmas. Christ first loved us, we ought to love one another.

We have the technical sophistication of Tinker Toy’s protecting the IoT microcosms of America’s health sector organizations.

Writing is a bit like being a god

I need to set the record straight for myself.

When you are a high school girl, there is nothing more miraculous than a high school boy.

The fact that the climate is getting warmer doesn't scare me at all. There's no reason why one should be scared.

Wisdom is corrupted by ambition, even when the quality of the ambition is intellectual. For ambition, even of this quality, is but a form of self-love.

I myself have always stood in the awe of the camera. I recognize it for the instrument it is, part Stradivarius, part scalpel.

At parties, I'll start talking and notice everyone is looking at me and feel dumb and say, 'Forget it,' and then start eating things.

Fortune is always on the side of the largest battalions.
