To the citizens of Israel I say: we have passed difficult years faced the most painful experiences and overcame them. The future lies before us. We are required to take difficult and controversial steps but we must not miss the opportunity to try to achieve what we have wished for for so many years: security tranquillity and peace.
But there's one thing we are not going to compromise at all: when it comes to security of Israeli citizens and the State of Israel there are not going to be any compromises - not now and not in the future.
My commitment to the security and future of Israel is based upon basic morality as well as enlightened self-interest. Our role in supporting Israel honors our own heritage.
The security and the future of Jordan is hand-in-hand with the future of the Palestinians and the Israelis.
We would fight not for the political future of a distant city rather for principles whose destruction would ruin the possibility of peace and security for the peoples of the earth.
The American people I talk to don't spend every moment thinking 'How can I tax my neighbor more than they're being taxed?' They say 'How can I get a good job? How can my kids get good jobs? How can seniors have a confidence in their future when they know that Social Security Medicare and Medicaid are bankrupt?'
I was going through a little bit of turbulence in my career. And so it's funny how turbulence itself will make you hold onto something for security. And so the only thing I knew is trust in the Lord and lean not unto your own heart in all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy path.
Even in the common affairs of life in love friendship and marriage how little security have we when we trust our happiness in the hands of others!
Our constitutional liberties shall not be sacrificed in our search for greater security for that is what our enemies and all enemies of freedom and democracy hope to achieve.
The balance between freedom and security is a delicate one.
By helping readers understand these mechanics I hope they will appreciate why freedom is for everyone why it is essential for our security and why the free world plays a critically important role in advancing democracy around the globe.
The abortion license has not brought freedom and security to women. Rather it has ushered in a new era of irresponsibility toward women and children one that now begins before birth.
We are expected to believe that anyone who objects to the Department of Homeland Security or the USA Patriot Act is a terrorist and that the only way to preserve our freedom is to hand it over to the government for safekeeping.
Just as the Security Council was largely irrelevant to the great struggle of the last half of the twentieth century - freedom against Communism - so too it is largely on the sidelines in our contemporary struggles against international terrorism and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.
One of the things that bothers me most is the growing belief in the country that security is more important than freedom. It ain't.
I think the American people have become more reliant upon government and less reliant upon themselves and that they now tend to put security ahead of freedom but I think freedom is the most important aspect of our lives.
We must plan for freedom and not only for security if for no other reason than that only freedom can make security secure.
