I know I had no hand in making this war, and I know I will make more sacrifices today than any of you to secure peace.

Peace is our gift to each other.

I'll keep peace at all cost, even if I choke to death on my tongue.

In a war everybody always knows all about Switzerland, in peace times it is just Switzerland but in war time it is the only country that everybody has confidence in, everybody.

Martin Luther King Jr. is remembered as our prince of peace, of civil rights. We owe him something major that will keep his memory alive.

My constant prayer, my number one foreign goal, is to bring peace to Israel. And in the process to Israel's neighbours.
