More From Boutros Boutros-Ghali

Let us consider the actual, worldly jew - not the sabbath jew, as bauer does, but the everyday jew. ... what is the worldly religion of the jew? huckstering. what is his worldly god? money. money is the jealous god of israel, in face of which no other god may exist. money degrades all the gods of man - and turns them into commodities. the bill of exchange is the real god of the jew. his god is only an illusory bill of exchange. the chimerical nationality of the jew is the nationality of the merchant, of the man of money in general.

A genocide in africa has not received the same attention that genocide in europe or genocide in turkey or genocide in other part of the world. there is still this kind of basic discrimination against the african people and the african problems.

I can look back . . . at two distinct periods of opinion whose foundations i have successively come to distrust - a period before 1919 or so, when the weight of classic authority unduly influenced me, and another period from 1919 to about 1925, when i placed too high a value on the elements of revolt, florid colour, and emotional extravagance or intensity.

Hath not a jew eyes? hath not a jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions? ...if you poison us, do we not die? and if you wrong us, shall we not revenge? if we are like you in the rest, we will resemble you in that. if a jew wrong a christian, what is his humility? revenge. if a christian wrong a jew, what should his sufferance be by christian example?

We make tools for people. tools to create, tools to communicate. the age we're living in, these tools surprise you. ... that's why i love what we do. because we make these tools, and we're constantly surprised with what people do with them.

In 2003, at the time i made my "old europe" comment, the center of gravity in nato and europe had long since shifted to the east. with the former warsaw pact countries joining nato, the alliance has a different mix today. some people were sensitive about my comment because they thought it was a pejorative way of highlighting demographic realities. apparently they felt it pointed a white light at a weakness in europe - an aging population. europe has come some distance since world war ii in becoming europe.

I have been long sensible that while i was endeavoring to render our country the greatest of all services, that of regenerating the public education, and placing our rising generation on the level of our sister states (which they have proudly held heretofore), i was discharging the odious function of a physician pouring medicine down the throat of a patient insensible of needing it.

Soldiers join the military to serve their country, but when bullets are flying, it's hard to fight for an abstract notion like patriotism. they're fighting for the people standing next to them, and it doesn't matter who's a republican or a democrat, or who's black or white or christian or muslim or gay or straight. if congress and all americans could manage to ignore those differences, we would have a perfect country, but somehow we cannot rise to that level of nobility.
