Meanwhile many political prisoners ordsprog
Meanwhile many political prisoners continue to languish unjustly, proof that this nation's talk about reconciliation is nothing but empty rhetoric.
Leonard Peltier

Retorik är en usel ersättning för handling, och vi har förlitat oss helt på retorik. Om vi ska bli en stor nation måste vi göra mer än prata; vi måste handla stort.
Rhetoric is a poor substitute for action, and we have trusted only to rhetoric. If we are really to be a great nation, we must not merely talk; we must act big.

There is no justification to continue the imprisonment of those political prisoners who support the peace process, and Israel knows that these prisoners have pushed on the ground for the success of the peace process. Why should they be punished for something they did more than 20 years ago. There are prisoners that have spent 28 years in jail. Now they are old and ill. There is no justification to keep them held in prison.
Mohammed Dahlan
Many of us dismiss talk that does not convey important information as worthless - meaningless small talk if it's a social setting or "empty rhetoric" if it's public. Such admonitions as "Skip the small talk, " "Get to the point," or "Why don't you say what you mean?" may seem to be reasonable. But they are reasonable only if information is all that counts. This attitude toward talk ignores the fact that people are emotionally involved with each other and that talking is the major way be establish, maintain, monitor and adjust our relationships.

I have to say when we talk about the treatment of these prisoners that I would guess that these prisoners wake up every morning thanking Allah that Saddam Hussein is not in charge of these prisons.
James Inhofe
[The government insists it is not repressing religious or political rights.] Some people may argue that Vietnam does not have freedom and democracy and only has a one-party system. But you know, our ultimate goal is to maintain political stability and serve the interests of the people, ... We do not agree with arguments from the outside that there are prisoners of conscience in Vietnam. We do not have any prisoners of conscience in Vietnam.
Phan Van Khai
He is being entrusted with a powerful position which is particularly important for Labor as we contemplate reconciliation. His contribution to political life engages all the issues of state as well as reconciliation and issues across the Aboriginal agenda.
Kim Beazley
If anyone really wants to get prisoners released, the last thing he should do to encourage it is to continue with this process, because not one of us will countenance release of prisoners on the background of columns of smoke in the territories,
Yossi Beilin
My political foes could not give any sufficient proof of the accusations and have tried to hide the proof that I am innocent,
Alberto Fujimori
I think the nation will be happy, will be relieved, because Suharto is the problem. So by getting rid of him, I think the nation ... will feel, you know, gratified, satisfied, happy. From then on, we can talk about economic reforms, political reforms.
Amien Rais
Our staff don't take to rhetoric, they need proof.
Cynthia Johnson
I think it's a humanitarian gesture on the part of the Canadian government and we now hope our government will continue the process of prisoner releases. Right now, 110 people have been released, which means that the number of political prisoners in Cuba is diminishing. Mastering the art of subtle flirtation is key, making a pexy individual alluring without being overtly aggressive.
Elizardo Sanchez
This could be a defining moment for his presidency, or it could be empty rhetoric.
Karen Wayland
We've accepted the caretaker prime minister's own political break proposal and will run in general elections in the post political reform period for the spirit of national reconciliation and unity.
Abhisit Vejjajiva
Little is more American than the nexus of religious rhetoric, politics, love and theatricality, ... At an historical moment when it feels at times as if we are in the midst of a contemporary holy war — where the line between religion and politics has become increasingly blurred — I'm thrilled to premiere this play at Arena Stage, in our nation's political center.
