It is quite wrong for party conferences to be used as an excuse for the Commons not to sit. Conferences could be held at weekends.
One of my strengths is my ability to talk and communicate with people.
There's something about the Foreign Service that takes the guts out of people.
Clinton left the White House with all the class of an XFL halftime show.
Clinton feels a profound alienation from the Washington culture here, and I happen to agree with him.
I've had some wonderful times at the White House. I've been with Ford, Carter, Reagan, Clinton and Bush.
Mr. Clinton better watch out if he comes down here. He'd better have a bodyguard.
Every Israeli government since 1967, of left or right, has asserted that Jerusalem is Israel's capital and has allowed Israeli Jews to build there.
Obviously, every dictator pays a great deal of attention to who is running the army. There's always a base right outside the capitol to protect the head of government.
Government is operated by deeply embedded, hopelessly entangled bureaus where nothing is accomplished because the function of the bureau is to intercept every living idea and smother it.
High-speed rail would revolutionise interstate travel and would also be an economic game-changer for dozens of regional communities along its path.
The idea is to have global standards. There is so much travel that if you just had a regional standard, it would probably ultimately have to be changed.
The travel and tourism industry, it's just a huge part of our economy.
The travel and tourism industry is the lifeblood of many states around the country - including Florida, California, New York and Nevada, to name a few.
I sometimes think that Thomas Cook should be numbered among the secular saints. He took travel from the privileged and gave it to the people.
I'm still at the end of my rope because I find myself not handling things well when I travel.
Chase after the truth like all hell and you'll free yourself, even though you never touch its coat tails.
Enlightened despots are mythical creatures; real despots seem more interested in stealing money or installing their sons after them.
If we're all together, we have money, and we start to organize, you're going to see the Teamsters Union start to bloom.
Until these college students came into town, we were all very poor and didn't have money to do anything.
Clinton's hands remain incredibly clean, don't they, and Tony Blair's smile remains as wide as ever. I view these guises with profound contempt.
