"Had the versailles treaty dealt fairly with a defeatedgermany at the end of world war one could the german public ever have been receptive to the nazi program" "Now...yes?" "What about 9/11?" "3,000 people died." "Should we have recognized the terrorists' right to kill those people?" "But those people had a grievance." "Yes,I know they had a grievance,but that doesn't mean that they were right." "Sufficient that they were willing to kill their children." "Yeah,well,you know what?" "I don't mind them killing their children." "I object to their killing my children." "Somebody thinks I offended him I suppose he can give me a call." "He comes into my house in the middle of the night with a butcher knife," "I'm going to shoot him dead because I have a family to defend." "Is this so foreign from your way of thinking?"

"You scream at firemen when they're going to put out a fire?" "Do you?" "Well,there's a fire,people." "You're at war." "And though it's hard for me to believe you don't know it." "You're out of order and you're in the wrong room!" "What about "recognizing the absolute right of the other?" "" This is a peace meeting." "Oh,good.Well." "You're willing to fight for peace." "Good for you." "'Cause that's what the men and the women on the base are doing." "Good for you!" "Now,I have a few more remarks."

"These men labor in the sun for years to obtain but a fraction of the diamonds your people stole in a quarter of an hour which you stole from acquaintances of mine." "I regret that we have offended you." "How is such regret traditionally expressed?" "You've thought ahead." "Commendable." "Mm-hmm." "My friends may still come looking for you for an explanation." "I'll have one prepared." "And should you come across any more stones on a similar basis... thank you." "Quite good stones,by the way." "We should do well." "What are you hoping to realize?"
