I think I'm seen as trustworthy. I'm seen as having determination and persistence, and I'm seen as having a capacity to reach achievable answers to difficult issues.

We want to assert the very principle that truth is absolute, truth is supreme, truth is never disposable in national political life.

I grew up in a strong family; we had strong family bonds.

I thank all of those who were...

I thank all of those who weren't born in this country for coming here and making a contribution to Australia. We are the least discriminatory country in the world, in my view.

John Howard 43 quotes

Australia will always be clos...

Australia will always be closer to the U.S. than she is to China because our values and political traditions are much closer.

John Howard 43 quotes

I'm not running away from the fact that I had previously said I did not contemplate a major increase, and that was a fair statement of the Government's state of mind at the time I made that.

On economic policy, my support of smaller government, lower taxes and economic reform is consistent with the mainstream of the Republican Party in the United States and with many Democrats as well.

There will, in my view, come a time when there has to be some kind of political denouement inside China, because the newly enriched generation might put up with being told what to do by their rulers - but their children, who will take prosperity for granted, will not.

This is appalling. The idea that a person could be punished because of their religious belief and the idea they might be executed is just beyond belief.

I have absolutely no difficulty myself with the playing of God Save the Queen in the presence of Her Majesty.

I don't think there's any reason on Earth why people should have access to automatic and semiautomatic weapons unless they're in the military or in the police.

John Howard 43 quotes

I don't share the view that China and the U.S. need to reach some kind of strategic accommodation to carve up the Asia-Pacific region - that is an arrogant proposition and deeply insulting to other countries in the region, including Japan and potentially also India and Indonesia.

It's too much to expect in an academic setting that we should all agree, but it is not too much to expect discipline and unvarying civility.

Truth is absolute, truth is supreme, truth is never disposable in national political life.

John Howard 43 quotes

In my estimation, there shoul...

In my estimation, there should always be a mixture of economic liberalism - which means small government, a great emphasis on markets - but also a certain degree of social conservatism, not to favor change unless that change is beneficial. So I describe myself as an economic liberal and a social conservative.

John Howard 43 quotes

If the tradition which claims...

If the tradition which claims that war may be justified does not also admit that it could be unjustified, the affirmation is not morally serious. A Christian who prepares the case for a justified war without being equally prepared for hte negative case has not soberly weighted the prima facie presumption that any violence is wrong until the case for an exception has been made.

The bicycle is a curious vehicle. Its passenger is its engine.

John Howard 43 quotes

You are not prime minister of Australia because of some kind of process of divine selection. You are prime minister of Australia through the gift of the Australian people.
