Arab Spring Quotes

Text Quotes
None of us is certain about the outcome of the Arab Spring  (Arab Spring Quotes) As you know with the Arab Spring, there were no dividends  (Arab Spring Quotes) Half the U.S. population owns barely 2 percent of its wealth, putting the United States near Rwanda and Uganda and below such nations as pre-Arab Spring Tunisia and Egypt when measured by degrees of income inequality.  (Arab Spring Quotes) No matter what’s happening in the Middle East - the Arab Spring, et cetera, the economic challenges, high rates of unemployment - the emotional, critical issue is always the Israeli-Palestinian one.  (Arab Spring Quotes) The problem with what we call the ‘Arab spring’ is that these are very nationalistic experiences. Tunisians are concerned with Tunisia, Egyptians concerned with Egypt and so on.  (Arab Spring Quotes) In much of the world, there is a sense of an ultra-powerful CIA manipulating everything that happens, such as running the Arab Spring, running the Pakistani Taliban, etc. That is just nonsense.  (Arab Spring Quotes) I’ve never conspired to overthrow the government; all I did was report on the Arab Spring and suggest that something similar might happen in Ethiopia if the authoritarian regime didn’t reform.  (Arab Spring Quotes) The Arab Spring is over. The days of the protesters with laptops and BlackBerrys in Tahrir Square are long gone.  (Arab Spring Quotes) The ‘Arab Spring’ is the most spectacular example of the dispersal of power  (Arab Spring Quotes) The Arab Awakening or Arab Spring has transformed the geopolitical landscape  (Arab Spring Quotes) Time and again-from the collapse of the Soviet Union to the events of 9/11 to the onset of the Arab Spring-events have caught the experts, whether in government or on the outside, completely by surprise. Business owners with comparable performance records go bust. Brokers lose their clients. Physicians get sued for malpractice. Yet think-tankers and policy wonks continue to opine, never pausing to reflect on-or apologize for-their spotty records.  (Arab Spring Quotes) In any conflict area, it is always the women who are the first point of attack. But I think the more they have seen of oppression and violence, they have gotten more brave, more strong, more fearless than they were. You see this refusal to just keep quiet and do as you are told.  (Arab Spring Quotes) Independence used to be the ticket for liberty. But today, security and freedom, whether it’s in the Arab Spring, whether it’s in Iraq or whether it’s right here in the United States, means working cooperatively and interdependently with others.  (Arab Spring Quotes) The end of despots is always odd?exhilarating to those who suffered their tyrannies, and to those who hold despotism in contempt, and anti-climatic at the same time, the discovery that these tyrants were petty, frightened men after all.  (Arab Spring Quotes) If democracy succeeds in Egypt, other countries will follow. Should the democratic experiment in Egypt be hijacked by the military or anti-democratic Islamist groups, the revolution will fail elsewhere.  (Arab Spring Quotes) The Arab Spring has heightened the ideological tension between Ankara and Tehran, and Turkey’s model seems to be winning.  (Arab Spring Quotes) Secretary Clinton and I have worked well together, but the Arab Spring is a different question... This administration, collectively, made some very bad decisions, and they now have to climb out of a deep hole  (Arab Spring Quotes) We tie ourselves in knots when we act as if democracy is good for the United States and Israel but not for the Arab world. For far too long, we’ve treated the Arab world as just an oil field  (Arab Spring Quotes) The riveting moral power of the Arab Spring comes from its homegrown quality. This is about Arabs overcoming fear to become agents of their own transformation and liberation  (Arab Spring Quotes) The international community cannot stand by and watch the massacre of Libyan protesters. In Rwanda we watched. In Kosovo we acted  (Arab Spring Quotes) But for us, in Syria, we have principles. We’ll do anything to prevent the region from another crazy war. It’s not only Syria. Because it will start in Syria  (Arab Spring Quotes) Congress needs to send a strong signal that direct communication with the leader of the free world is a privilege, particularly for a regime that has been as hostile as Iran has been towards America for more than three decades. President Rouhani needs to take these two simple steps to demonstrate good faith before any further discussions  (Arab Spring Quotes) The Arab Spring I think we will look back whether it’s two years, five years, ten or fifteen. And say it’s a good thing  (Arab Spring Quotes) Social media allows people to connect. So instead of reading about the Arab Spring, I can have students following along, in real-time, with what is happening  (Arab Spring Quotes) I think the Internet and technology in general has changed everything. We can see it overseas even more with the Arab Spring and so forth  (Arab Spring Quotes) All the big revolutions, whether it’s the Industrial Revolution, the Arab Spring, those changes happened by economic and social shifts brought about by the people’s voices, and those things weren’t voted for. Most of our changes today are brought about through technology, not by voting  (Arab Spring Quotes) Revolution is like a love story. When you are in love, you become a much better person. And when you are in revolution, you become a much better person  (Arab Spring Quotes) The Arab Spring has heightened the ideological tension between Ankara and Tehran, and Turkey’s model seems to be winning  (Arab Spring Quotes)
