"The Palestinian election is something that was really a turning point. It’s a mandate for peace." ― Warren Christopher Topic(s): Peace More From Warren Christopher "This is a very important relationship we have with Russia, the relationship over the nuclear arsenal that they have obviously is important. They’re a very powerful country." "It was helpful to have the American troops there in great strength. They knew there’d be consequences if they didn’t move back. Now, there has been some removal of the foreign forces." "My clerkship with Justice Douglas was tremendously important. He told me, Christopher, get out into the stream of history and see what happens. I’ve tried to follow that advice." More In Peace "Politics is about the improvement of people’s lives. It’s about advancing the cause of peace and justice in our country and the world. Politics is about doing well for the people."― Paul Wellstone "In my mind the city of Ariel is a thorn in Israel’s side and a serious obstacle to peace."― Theodore Bikel "Peace is not made at the council table or by treaties, but in the hearts of men."― Herbert Hoover
