Math and science fields are not the only areas where we see the United States lagging behind. Less than 1 percent of American high school students study the critical foreign languages of Arabic Chinese Japanese Korean or Russian combined.

As I have tried to show science in producing the airplane and the wireless has created a new international political environment to which governments must adjust their foreign policies.

Science is an integral part of culture. It's not this foreign thing done by an arcane priesthood. It's one of the glories of the human intellectual tradition.

Ladies and gentlemen it is with great sadness that I announce that I will resign as Australia's Minister for Foreign Affairs. I am sad because I love this job. I'm totally dedicated to the work that we are doing in Australia's name around the world and I believe that we have achieved many good results for Australia and I'm proud of them.

Where defining foreign policy as 'ethical' went wrong was that it implied that all decisions would be exclusive in every respect of any dealings with unethical regimes.

We shall listen not lecture learn not threaten. We will enhance our safety by earning the respect of others and showing respect for them. In short our foreign policy will rest on the traditional American values of restraint and empathy not on military might.

In better times the religion of the tribe or state has nothing in common with the private and foreign superstitions or magical rites that savage terror may dictate to the individual.

We're in an illusion about what our role is in world politics and foreign affairs and our policies are killing and destroying and doing a lot of things that we are not aware of.

The lesson of the last year is this: foreign policy can't be managed through the politics of personality and our President would do well to take note of an observation John F. Kennedy made once he was in office - that all of the world's problems aren't his predecessor's fault.

I think that it's always appropriate for Americans and for American foreign policy to make clear why we feel that self-government is most compatible with peace the well-being of people and human dignity.

If our nation goes over a financial Niagara we won't have much strength and eventually we won't have peace. We are currently borrowing the entire defense budget from foreign investors. Within a few years we will be spending more on interest payments than on national security. That is not as our military friends say a 'robust strategy.'

I challenge anybody to say that I wouldn't know how to approach foreign policy because unlike some of the other people I at least have a foreign policy philosophy which is an extension of the Reagan philosophy. Peace through strength and my philosophy is peace through strength and clarity.

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

The proper means of increasing the love we bear our native country is to reside some time in a foreign one.

French is a foreign language but I've been speaking it since I was 18 so it's second nature to me.

Shoot a few scenes out of focus. I want to win the foreign film award.

What affects men sharply about a foreign nation is not so much finding or not finding familiar things it is rather not finding them in the familiar place.

It is the superfluous things for which men sweat - superfluous things that wear our togas theadbare that force us to grow old in camp that dash us upon foreign shores.

Civil war? What does that mean? Is there any foreign war? Isn't every war fought between men between brothers?

Personally I like two types of men - domestic and foreign.

Nearly every study shows that competition from cheap foreign labor undercuts the wages of American workers and legal immigrants.

For me French is so rich and so sacred that learning it is like learning a foreign language.

Playing golf is like learning a foreign language.
