At the bottom of enmity between strangers lies indifference.

Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.

A criminal may improve and become a decent member of society. A foreigner cannot improve. Once a foreigner, always a foreigner. There is no way out for him.

I have said this before, but I shall say it again and again and again: your boys are not going to be sent into any foreign wars.

If a man be gracious and courteous to strangers, it shows he is a citizen of the world, and that his heart is no island cut off from other lands, but a continent that joins to them.

Some of us would be greatly astonished to learn the reasons why others respect us.

It’s good to remember that in crises, natural crises, human beings forget for a while their ignorances, their biases, their prejudices. For a little while, neighbors help neighbors and strangers help strangers.

“Abroad,” that large home of ruined reputations.

There is no foreign land; it is the traveler only that is foreign.

Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing that some have entertained angels without knowing it.

This is not a clash between civilizations. It is a clash about civilization.

The noblest kind of retribution is not to become like your enemy.
