The Character Of A People May Be

Were I To Sum Up The Basle Congress In A Word- Which I Shall Guard Against Pronouncing Publicly- It Would Be This: 'at Basle, I Founded The Jewish State. If I Said This Out Loud Today, I Would Be Answered By Universal Laughter. If Not In 5 Years, Certainly In 50, Everyone Will Know It.'

The Jewish People Asked Nothing Of Its Sons Except Not To Be Denied. The World Is Grateful To Every Great Man When He Brings It Something; Only The Paternal Home Thanks The Son Who Brings Nothing But Himself.

If You Will It, It Is No Dream; And If You Do Not Will It, A Dream It Is And A Dream It Will Stay

Universal Brotherhood Is Not Even A Beautiful Dream. Antagonism Is Essential To Man's Greatest Efforts.

The Spirit In Which The Offer Was Made Must Of Necessity Contribute To Improving And Alleviating The Situation Of The Jewish People Without Our Renouncing One Iota Of The Great Principles Upon Which Our Movement Is Based.
