The middle class is doing fine in fiction. But it's not what gets me going. I love the working class and everyone from it I've met and think they're incredibly witty inventive - there's a lot of poetry there.

The conflict in the Middle East needs to be solved for the same reasons. It is necessary to reach a two-states solution built on international law for sustainable peace and development and it can only be achieved through joint efforts by the international community.

Too often in the past U.S. leaders have forced Israel to pay the price for American strategic interests in the Middle East - through concessions in the peace process as well as passivity in the face of Iraqi attacks.

Our armed forces will fight for peace in Iraq a peace built on more secure foundations than are found today in the Middle East. Even more important they will fight for two human conditions of even greater value than peace: liberty and justice.

Certainly protecting oppressed people stopping ethnic conflict and promoting responsible governance are worthy goals. But none is as important for American security and prosperity as keeping the peace in the Middle East Europe and East Asia.

Some people put up a peace sign with one hand. Some people put up the middle finger instead. I use two hands and put up both.

I'm on the board of directors for Peace Now which works tirelessly between the Palestinians and the Israelis to create peace in the Middle East and we've never been closer.

It would behoove the world to become used to this fact: that without a just solution to the Palestine tragedy there can be no stable peace in the Middle East.

I do not support peace in the Middle East. And I do not support Arafat. He is a stupid incompetent fool!

I attach the greatest importance to an amplification of the peace efforts in the Middle East. I would also like to see a greater dialogue between the U.S. and the EU.

The Iranian regime suppresses its own people as well as others in the region. It prevents peace by sponsoring terror globally. With the ultimate weapon that it is deceptively developing the regime aims to gain hegemony over the entire Middle East and hold the world's economy hostage.

Were there peace and justice in the Middle East the Arabs would no more need their tinhorn dictators than they would their corpulent princes.

It is not possible to create peace in the Middle East by jeopardizing the peace of the world.

You can't make war in the Middle East without Egypt and you can't make peace without Syria.

Egypt has been a partner of the United States over the last 30 years has been instrumental in keeping the peace in the Middle East between Egypt and Israel which is a critical accomplishment that has meant so much to so many people.

Patience makes a women beautiful in middle age.

I attribute the quarrelsome nature of the Middle Ages young men entirely to the want of the soothing weed.

In middle school I really didn't have music but in high school I remember taking a lot of choir and drama.

I was a big fan of Middle Eastern elements of music and experimental electronic and tribal sounds.

I'm a Cancerian the typical crab with the tough outer shell and the soft bit in the middle. I don't think I'll ever come to terms with people being unnecessarily nasty but I can take it if someone doesn't like my music - I'm not everyone's cup of tea.

I hate most of what constitutes rock music which is basically middle-aged crap.

From the beginning I knew intuitively that if nothing else music was safe and that nobody could tell me anything about it. Music didn't need a middleman whereas all the other things in school needed some kind of explanation.

All studio movies are the middle of the Bell curve. The only way to do something is to do it yourself. And the only way to do that is to not take any money from anyone or take as little money as possible from anyone and that's it.

I've always been in the middle of making my own movies so taking acting jobs that take me away from that has been impossible.
