Education, particularly higher education, will take Africa into the mainstream of globalization.
~By John Agyekum Kufuor ~
So I think that, yes, anything that makes it more palatable and easier to understand, such as a Virtual Centre, has to be seen as a primary activity within the educational and information global state.
~By Richard Rogers ~
We went out for six weeks a year. We first started in Mexico and we did that for so many years that we finally said we've got to explore and start going globally. And then we started going all over the world.
~By Gavin MacLeod ~
But let no one be under any doubt that the scale of the challenge that Europe faces in this emerging global economy is immense and the practical pace of our collective action to meet these challenge to date has just been too slow.
~By John Hutton ~
What we can do as individuals may not be very much on the global scale, but we have to start the change by living as we are teaching.
~By Harri Holkeri ~
The right response to the non-problem of global warming is to have the courage to do nothing.
~By Christopher Monckton ~
Think on a 50-year scale, which is a much more natural time-scale for global warming. The US is right now spending about 200 million dollars annually on research into renewable energy.
~By Bjorn Lomborg ~
Olympics is global competition in which eighty, ninety, hundred, hundred and ten countries participate.
~By George Pataki ~
In the 'Nike Economy,' there are no standards, no borders and no rules. Clearly, the global economy isn't working for workers in China and Indonesia and Burma any more than it is for workers here in the United States.
~By John J. Sweeney ~
Almost every way we make electricity today, except for the emerging renewables and nuclear, puts out CO2. And so, what we're going to have to do at a global scale, is create a new system. And so, we need energy miracles.
~By Bill Gates ~
The most important thing about global warming is this. Whether humans are responsible for the bulk of climate change is going to be left to the scientists, but it's all of our responsibility to leave this planet in better shape for the future generations than we found it.
~By Mike Huckabee ~
Mr. Vice President, the most fiscally conservative thing this government has ever done, is to invest massively in the green part of the recovery. Because those green dollars are the hardest working dollars in the history of American politics. That same dollar that is being used to cut energy bills, is also cutting global warming gas emissions, is also cutting unemployment, is also cutting poverty, through retrofits it's also raising the value of homes, is also by cleaning the air, cutting asthma rates.
~By Van Jones ~
Contagion has become very much a phenomenon, and it's a phenomenon of globalization.
~By Lawrence Summers ~
The regime of globalization promotes an unfettered marketplace as the dynamic instrument organizing international relations.

~By Valerie Jarrett ~
America has global trade with plenty of nations that provide inexpensive labor, but it's better for us when they're in our own hemisphere, rather than sending that business halfway around the world.
~By Ernest Istook ~
AIDS is a global problem and there should be a global solution found by the entire international community. It is really scary to see and imagine our world fall into pieces because we refuse to share and put in the common vestiges of our civilizations.
~By Sarah Polley ~
If you're totally illiterate and living on one dollar a day, the benefits of globalization never come to you.
~By Jimmy Carter ~
Addressing global resentment cannot be put off. If we do not learn to use our predominant power with great restraint, we will antagonize the world.
~By Lee H. Hamilton ~
My friends, there is no Palestinian-Israeli conflict. There is only the global war on terrorism.
~By Tom DeLay ~
As we realise that more and more things have global impact, I think we're going to get people increasingly wanting to get away from a purely national interest.
~By Peter Singer ~
To compete in a global economy, our students must continue their education beyond high school. To make this expectation a reality, we must give students the tools they need to succeed, including the opportunity to take a college entrance exam.
~By Jennifer Granholm ~
When we walk away from global warming, Kyoto, when we are irresponsibly slow in moving toward AIDS in Africa, when we don't advance and live up to our own rhetoric and standards, we set a terrible message of duplicity and hypocrisy.
~By John F. Kerry ~
Today's cinema is a global art form, it is impossible to make movies for a market the size of France, representing no more than 4% of the world's total.
~By Jean-Jacques Annaud ~
The negative side to globalization is that it wipes out entire economic systems and in doing so wipes out the accompanying culture.
~By Peter L. Berger ~
Accordingly, globalization is not only something that will concern and threaten us in the future, but something that is taking place in the present and to which we must first open our eyes.
~By Ulrich Beck ~
Often times when you face such an overwhelming challenge as global climate change, it can be somewhat daunting - it's kind of like trying to lose weight, which I know something about.
~By Hillary Clinton ~
Israel is no longer a people that dwells alone, and has to join the global journey toward peace, reconciliation and international cooperation.
~By Yitzhak Rabin ~
It created a global platform that allowed more people to plug and play, collaborate and compete, share knowledge and share work, than anything we have ever seen in the history of the world.
~By Thomas Friedman ~
Although this crisis in some ways started in the United States, it is a global crisis. We bear a substantial share of the responsibility for what has happened, but factors that made the crisis so acute and so difficult to contain lie in a broader set of global forces that built up in the years before the start of our current troubles.
~By Timothy Geithner ~
No state should be allowed to profess partnership with the global coalition against terror, while continuing to aid, abet and sponsor terrorism.
~By Atal Bihari Vajpayee ~
It is vital that the United States maintains open lines of communication with our allies. We must assure them of our commitment to eradicating global terrorism wherever it may reside or wherever it's given haven.
~By George Allen ~
It is amazing to me, as a professional geologist, how many otherwise intelligent people have, as some may say, 'drunk the Al Gore Kool-Aid' concerning global climate change.
~By Earl F. Titcomb, Jr. ~
In the US, most progressives start to see the differences between internationalism and economic globalization.
~By David Korten ~
As of today, we do not need expert reports by the authoritative analytical institutions to realise that the reasons for such a situation in our community lie in global inequality, poverty and illiteracy.
~By Nursultan Nazarbayev ~
What is being called the UN 'gender architecture' is more like a shack. Women need a bigger global house if equality is ever to become a reality.
~By Charlotte Bunch ~
This is a global effort we're going to have to lead to overcome this jihadist effort. It's more than Osama bin Laden. But he is going to pay, and he will die.
~By Mitt Romney ~
In a situation where many national leaders do the same thing and look out for national interests, and with an issue like global warming, you're likely to get no solution, so I think you have to have some kind of ethical trump on some of those issues.
~By Peter Singer ~
Globalization is a fact of economic life.
~By Carlos Salinas de Gortari ~
That level of trade deficit throttles real growth in our country and continues the unfortunate path of selling out America. We are not winning the global trade war, we are losing it badly.
~By Marcy Kaptur ~
I am a huge believer in giving back and helping out in the community and the world. Think globally, act locally I suppose. I believe that the measure of a person's life is the affect they have on others.
~By Steve Nash ~
Every one of our greatest national treasures, our liberty, enterprise, vitality, wealth, military power, global authority, flow from a surprising source: our ability to give thanks.
~By Tony Snow ~
As a scientist, my attention became totally focused on global warming some 15 years ago by the elegant and powerful measurements of carbon dioxide trapped in ice cores taken as much as 2 miles deep from the great East Antarctica ice sheet.
~By John Olver ~
Today, we can see with our own eyes what global warming is doing. In that context it becomes truly irresponsible, if not immoral, for us not to do something.
~By Joe Lieberman ~
Maintaining clean, safe water remains one of our greatest national and global challenges and responsibilities.
~By Jerry Costello ~
The nature of the global business environment guarantees that no matter how hard we work to create a stable and healthy organisation, our organisation will continue to experience dramatic changes far beyond our control.
~By Margaret J. Wheatley ~
The point is that there is tremendous hypocrisy among the Christian right. And I think that Christian voters should start looking at global warming and extreme poverty as a religious issue that speaks to the culture of life.
~By Al Franken ~
The war on terrorism has made national security a legitimate concern, and a rising deficit, changes brought on by globalization and even the price of oil have thrown the nation's economic health into question.
~By Roger Mahony ~
For globalization to work for America, it must work for working people. We should measure the success of our economy by the breadth of our middle class, and the scope of opportunity offered to the poorest child to climb into that middle class.
~By John J. Sweeney ~
In fact, even the current administration now is releasing recent reports indicating that climate change is real, that global warming is occurring, that it is heavily influenced by man-made objects and that it is something we cannot ignore any longer.
~By Ron Kind ~
So, there is enormous instability in the global economy with a shift of winners and losers.
~By David Korten ~
The globalization of the capital market is actually part of economic globalization. This will create a change in the entire world economy, not just restricted to some fields in some countries.
~By Richard Grasso ~
It seems incontrovertible to me that there is a global warming effect and that it is going to be serious, probably not in the amount of, say, six degrees warming, but it's likely that we'll get two to three degrees warming and that will be serious enough.
~By Bjorn Lomborg ~
We should have been there shoulder to shoulder with our allies. Our concern is the instability of our government as an ally. We are playing again with national and global security matters.
~By Stephen Harper ~
Outsourcing and globalization of manufacturing allows companies to reduce costs, benefits consumers with lower cost goods and services, causes economic expansion that reduces unemployment, and increases productivity and job creation.
~By Larry Elder ~
In the first instance, therefore, global terrorism created a kind of global community sharing a common fate, something we had previously considered impossible.
~By Ulrich Beck ~
But in the past, US companies have been able to increase their profits through downsizing in the US, through colonizing other people's resources, and through the increase of globalization.
~By David Korten ~
Believe it or not, very little research has ever been funded to search for natural mechanisms of warming... it has simply been assumed that global warming is manmade. Climate change - it happens, with or without our help.
~By Roy Spencer ~
Career Education is one of the largest global providers in the higher education sector. We are projecting to be over $1.1 billion in revenue in 2003, which puts us number one in our sector for onsite education and number two for online education in terms of revenue.
~By John Larson ~
As the global expansion of Indian and Chinese restaurants suggests, xenophobia is directed against foreign people, not foreign cultural imports.
~By Eric Hobsbawm ~
The degree of leverage now being reversed is staggering, and the underlying global imbalances - notably between the savers and the spenders - will require long and painful adjustment.
~By Vince Cable ~
It is people who are the objects of globalization and at the same time its subjects. What also follows logically from this is that globalization is not a law of nature, but rather a process set in train by people.
~By Tarja Halonen ~
The 1980s will seem like a walk in the park when compared to new global challenges, where annual productivity increases of 6% may not be enough. A combination of software, brains, and running harder will be needed to bring that percentage up to 8% or 9%.
~By Jack Welch ~
In my ideal world, no child would suffer. Charitable instincts would prevail. There would be global acceptance of all different types of people.
~By Clay Aiken ~
In too many instances, the march to globalization has also meant the marginalization of women and girls. And that must change.
~By Hillary Clinton ~
So another challenge for our generation is to create global institutions that reflect our ideas of fairness and responsibility, not the ideas that were the basis of the last stage of financial development over these recent years.
~By Gordon Brown ~
Humanity today possesses sufficient economic, cultural and spiritual resources to introduce a better global order.
~By Hans Kung ~
I believe there is a moral sense and a global ethic that commands attention from people of every religion and every faith, and people of no faith. But I think what's new is that we now have the capacity to communicate instantaneously across frontiers right across the world.
~By Gordon Brown ~
I believe global warming and climate change are real threats to our planet.
~By Andrew Cuomo ~
The true credit for our safety and security goes to our men and women who are serving in places like Iraq and Afghanistan in the global war on terrorism.
~By Asa Hutchinson ~
The launch of the report coincides with the initiation by WHO of the global strategy for the prevention and control of osteoporosis, and I think a good partnership could be established in our common efforts to prevent osteoporosis.
~By Gro Harlem Brundtland ~
There is no credible evidence of the current exceptional global warming trumpeted by the IPCC. The IPCC is no longer behaving as an investigative scientific organization or pretending to be one. Their leaders betrayed the trust of the world community.
~By Grant Miles ~
Yet in this global economy, no jobs are safe. High-speed Internet connections and low-cost, skilled labor overseas are an explosive combination.
~By Bob Taft ~
Our view is that economic isolationism is the wrong way to go. Vibrant, successful growing economies that advance the interests of their citizens engage the global economy. And, we're committed to engaging the global economy.
~By John W. Snow ~
We are making gods out of global celebrities.
~By Elizabeth Joan Smith ~
Mr. Speaker, I agree with those who say that the Global War on Terrorism is actually a Global War of Ideas and that terrorism is one of the tactics used in that War.
~By Mac Thornberry ~
Neither conscience nor sanity itself suggests that the United States is, should or could be the global gendarme.
~By Robert McNamara ~
Leadership has become a heavy industry. Concern and interest about leadership development is no longer an American phenomenon. It is truly global. Though I will probably be in less demand, I wanted to move on.
~By Warren Bennis ~
Entropy theory is indeed a first attempt to deal with global form; but it has not been dealing with structure. All it says is that a large sum of elements may have properties not found in a smaller sample of them.
~By Rudolf Arnheim ~
Global Warming: It is a hoax. It is bad science. It is high-jacking public policy. It is the greatest scam in history.
~By John Coleman ~
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.
~By Joshua Lederberg ~
The human species really could have faced global thermonuclear war. During seventy years of Cold War we grew used to it.
~By Larry Niven ~
Russia should support globalization. The Internet can develop in Russia in a very speedy way.
~By Anatoly Chubais ~
Well, I heard of Sunny Ade, and looks as if his music is gonna be big on a global level, because I was in London the other day and some people asked me to review the album.
~By Dennis Brown ~
What will we do in a globalised world? All human beings are equal, so they have the same right to have the same lifestyle-the same social security, jobs, education.
~By Joschka Fischer ~
I am convinced that policies meant to reduce alleged carbon dioxide-induced global warming will be destructive.
~By Christopher Monckton ~
Much of the debate over global warming is predicated on fear, rather than science.
~By James Inhofe ~
I am not someone who believes we should build a fence around our country but I do believe there ought to be some fairness with respect to the rules of this globalization.
~By Byron Dorgan ~
The good news is that a competitive dollar in the global market and a strong dollar at home are compatible in both the long run and during the transition to a more competitive dollar.
~By Martin Feldstein ~
Technology is driving the innovation. Technology is driving the creativity. Technology and the use of that is going to determine our workers' ability to compete in the 21st century global marketplace.
~By Ron Kind ~
The new electronic independence re-creates the world in the image of a global village.
~By Marshall McLuhan ~
The idea is to have global standards. There is so much travel that if you just had a regional standard, it would probably ultimately have to be changed.
~By Gijs de Vries ~
Cinema has become a global economy, totally international.
~By Lasse Hallstrom ~
We have to choose between a global market driven only by calculations of short-term profit, and one which has a human face.
~By Kofi Annan ~

~By Kevin Rollins ~
Global equations undergo changes, this is their nature.
~By Mahmoud Ahmadinejad ~
The increased global linkages promote economic growth in the world through two key mechanisms: the division of labor and the international spillovers of knowledge.
