PALM, n. A species of tree having several varieties, of which the familiar "itching palm" (_Palma hominis_) is most widely distributed and sedulously cultivated. This noble vegetable exudes a kind of invisible gum, which may be detected by applying to the bark a piece of gold or silver. The metal will adhere with remarkable tenacity. The fruit of the itching palm is so bitter and unsatisfying that a considerable percentage of it is sometimes given away in what are known as "benefactions."

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

I also want to put on record the very high regard which the British government as a whole, and I personally, have for Kofi Annan, in leading and steering the United Nations through a period of great change in international relations,

Jack Straw

In community relations, you don't know for years the effect you've had. Building good relations is like nurturing a friendship over years. In a crisis, you can turn to your friend in another ethnic or religious community and say, 'I need your help.' Bill has been just a master at this kind of community building.

Jonathan Levine

The problem with the United Nations is that while democracy within nations is the best available form of government, democracy among nations can be a moral disaster -- especially if some nations are not democracies.

Jonah Goldberg

In the past two decades, what is abnormal in the discourse among nations has been accepted as normal in US-Iran relations. Lack of diplomatic relations, often between countries at conflict, even at war, is the abnormality, not the norm.

Cyrus Vance (1917-)

The success of the India-US relations depends on connections in other fields. The experiences of young people will shape the future of the India-US relations.

Lawrence Summers (1954-)

Good government never depends upon laws, but upon the personal qualities of those who govern. The machinery of government is always subordinate to the will of those who administer that machinery. The most important element of government, therefore, is the method of choosing leaders.

Frank Herbert (1920-1986)

We are committed to promoting the Sino-Japanese friendship and cooperation in the 21st century with real actions, so as to ensure sound and steady growth of Sino-Japanese relations and lasting friendship between the two peoples for generations to come,

Hu Jintao

If any good comes from the catastrophe, it will be that it signaled the beginning of the media's reassertion of aggressive, in-your-face reporting, in which it confronts government wrongdoing, rather than just swallowing the government's public-relations handouts.

Paul Levinson

If fear is cultivated it will become stronger, if faith is cultivated it will achieve mastery.

John Paul Jones (1747-1792)

Tro

This report unambiguously rejects the notion that business as usual at the United Nations is acceptable, ... We need to reform the U.N. in a manner that will prevent another oil-for-food scandal. The credibility of the United Nations depends on it.

John Bolton

We do not want to break relations with the US government; it is not in our plans, ... But if the aggressions continue, ... this could put diplomatic relations between Venezuela and the United States at risk.

Hugo Chavez

There are still treaty issues that First Nations will have to negotiate on the rail corridor, but those negotiations will be between First Nations and government.
