All historical experience demonstrates the following: Our earth cannot be changed unless in the not too distant future an alteration in the consciousness of individuals is achieved.

By the time a person has achieved years adequate for choosing a direction the die is cast and the moment has long since passed which determined the future.

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.

Blowing up buses will not induce the Israelis to move forward and neither will the killing of Palestinians or the demolition of their homes and their future. All this needs to stop. And we pledge that Jordan will do its utmost to help achieve it.

We are a party of innovation. We do not reject our traditions but we are willing to adapt to changing circumstances when change we must. We are willing to suffer the discomfort of change in order to achieve a better future.

I look forward to a time in the not so distant future when we no longer look forward to 'firsts' as milestones women have yet to achieve but we look back on them as historic events that continue to teach and inspire.

If future generations are to remember us more with gratitude than sorrow we must achieve more than just the miracles of technology. We must also leave them a glimpse of the world as it was created not just as it looked when we got through with it.

Destiny is no matter of chance. It is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for it is a thing to be achieved.

Especially with a comedy you've got the clear cut goal of trying to make a scene funny. It's not like drama where you're trying to achieve some kind of emotion or trying to further the story along. You're trying to figure out what's the funniest way to do something.

Here is my prescription to heal all wounds. Watch the film 'Funny Girl' at least five times eat at least 45 chocolate bars and hang out with all those friends you blew off to hang out with your ex. I truly believe that through a combination of Nutella old pals and Barbra Streisand we can achieve happiness and very probably world peace.

My most brilliant achievement was my ability to be able to persuade my wife to marry me.

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.

I am optimistic that peace can be achieved in the region because I believe that every society on earth can be free and that if freedom comes to the Middle East there can be peace.

The United States is a giant island of freedom achievement wealth and prosperity in a world hostile to our values.

Freedom is an internal achievement rather than an external adjustment.

My heart goes out to the brave citizens of Syria who each day risk and even sacrifice their lives to achieve freedom from a murderous regime. We in Israel welcome the historic struggle to forge democratic peace-loving governments in our region.

I was determined to achieve the total freedom that our history lessons taught us we were entitled to no matter what the sacrifice.

Today hundreds of millions dwell in freedom from the Baltic to the Adriatic from the Western Approaches to the Aegean. And while we must never take this for granted the first purpose of the European Union - to secure peace - has been achieved and we should pay tribute to all those in the EU alongside Nato who made that happen.

In South Africa we could not have achieved our freedom and just peace without the help of people around the world who through the use of non-violent means such as boycotts and divestment encouraged their governments and other corporate actors to reverse decades-long support for the Apartheid regime.

So long as you do not achieve social liberty whatever freedom is provided by the law is of no avail to you.

Let freedom reign. The sun never set on so glorious a human achievement.

The ability to forgive is one of man's greatest achievements.

When it becomes hard for me not to eat bad food I try to think about what I have to do and what is ahead of me and what I want to achieve.

No one's ever achieved financial fitness with a January resolution that's abandoned by February.
