As a citizen of a democratic state, I have always believed that when a prime minister is elected in Israel, even those who voted against him at the polls are obligated to desire his success.

A prime minister must not promise things that can't be fulfilled.

Today is the birthday of prime minister Ariel Sharon. We all pray for his health and wish for his speedy recovery.

Prime Minister, you have blood on your hands.

When I addressed international forums as prime minister, the Israeli people expected me to present bold political initiatives that would bring peace - not arguments outlining why achieving peace now is not possible.

I have never been bribed as a Prime Minister.
