But the power of science lies in open publication which with the rise of the Internet is no longer constrained by the price of paper.

Tact and diplomacy are fine in international relations in politics perhaps even in business in science only one thing matters and that is the facts.

We asked ourselves and the world to base decisions on good science and I really believe the United States can be the leader in delivering that message to our international trading partners.

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.

English once accepted as an international language is no more secure than French has proved to be as the one and only accepted language of diplomacy or as Latin has proved to be as the international language of science.

I'm chairing a UNESCO committee on how to improve global Internet communications for science help third-world people get onto the Net so they can be part of the process.

The world of science and the world of literature have much in common. Each is an international club helping to tie mankind together across barriers of nationality race and language. I have been doubly lucky being accepted as a member of both.

I have a better internal and intuitive understanding of folklore and myth than science and technology so in that way fantasy is easier.

After all science is essentially international and it is only through lack of the historical sense that national qualities have been attributed to it.

I've never met a woman who thinks they've got a good enough figure - however perfect they look - which is sad because no one else can see these perceived flaws they're entirely internal.

It's very rare that things are true about yourself that are on the Internet. It's just sad sometimes. So you definitely try and stay away from it as much as possible.

I think the crux of the matter was that if we were going to become partners in for example the International Space Station we had to gain the respect of a country like the United States and particularly its space organization NASA.

I call on the international community to be fair to the Iraqi people. My position is that we respect international resolutions but in return demand justice and accountability for those who stole Iraq's money.

The respect for human rights is nowadays not so much a matter of having international standards but rather questions of compliance with those standards.

Internationalism is a community theory of society which is founded on economic spiritual and biological facts. It maintains that respect for a healthy development of human society and of world civilization requires that mankind be organized internationally.

If Milosevic is to be tried he has to be tried by a proper court an impartial properly constituted court which has international respect.

I really don't spend any time on the Internet so I guess I live a little under a rock in that respect.

There are tens of thousands of interactions every single day across Afghanistan between the Afghan troops and International Security Assistance Force. On most of those every single day we continue to deepen and broaden the relationship we seek.

The PRC is the big brother in this relationship and it has the capacity to be generous to Taiwan on this issue in a manner that might do much to defuse that issue internally in Taiwan.

Our institute's agenda is relatively simple. We study the relationship between social-economic change and culture. By culture we mean beliefs values and lifestyles. We cover a broad range of issues and we work very internationally.

I've always been interested in the relationship between total external surround culture the political matrix technology etc. and the internal human consciousness.

It's impossible. You try to have any kind of relationship with your family with a man or with a friend and you have to be on the phone and the Internet the entire time.

Protect IP (PIPA) and the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) are a step towards a different kind of Internet. They are a step towards an Internet in which those with money and lawyers and access to power have a greater voice than those who don't.

In the next 10 years I expect at least five billion people worldwide to own smartphones giving every individual with such a phone instant access to the full power of the Internet every moment of every day.
