Once in a while, I have to pinch myself to remind myself I am Nobel laureate, but that is not part of my work plan every day.

From Mohamed ElBaradei

You will not really have durable peace without a proper security structure in the Middle East.

From Mohamed ElBaradei

If a country is suspected of going nuclear, you need to understand why. Why does it feel insecure?

From Mohamed ElBaradei

I argue that for every country to have an independent fuel cycle is the wrong way to go. Because any country which has a complete fuel cycle is a latent nuclear weapons country, in the sense that it is not far from making a nuclear weapon.

From Mohamed ElBaradei

I'm not a grassroots organizer; that is clear. I believe in a division of labor. I'm not trained to organize the grassroots, and grassroots has to come from the grassroots.

From Mohamed ElBaradei

I guess law was always interesting to me because you deal with constants. I like to deal with constants, abstracts, constants and reason and ration, rational approaches to things. I don't know, I never really thought why I wanted to study law. But if you ask me whether I would do it again, absolutely.

From Mohamed ElBaradei

Barack Obama has injected fresh momentum into efforts - stalled for a decade - to bring about nuclear disarmament.

From Mohamed ElBaradei

I think the Egyptian people need to restore confidence that Americans, the U.S., means what they say when they talk about democracy, rule of law.

From Mohamed ElBaradei

From Mohamed ElBaradei

The time is right for a political solution and the way is negotiations.
