Poland is quite a mediocre country in some regards. The only natural resource that we have, and with which we can compete, is freedom.

Poland should be strong and prosperous and independent and play its proper role as a great nation in the heart of Europe.

Poland is an ally of the United States of America. It was our duty to show that we are a reliable, loyal, and predictable ally. America needed our help, and we had to give it.

Poland is one of the few countries that can afford to conduct a conventional monetary policy and that means we have to act against the buildup of imbalances in the economy.

Germany is a great nation only because its people have so much Polish blood in their veins.

We are giving the citizens of Poland a sense that a reasonable and predictable government is ruling here.

I've lost Poland. Without Poland, I go down. I've been thrown out; yet I love my country.

Poland is a wildly dramatic and tragic story. It's just unbelievable what went on with those people. How they survive, I don't really know. The Germans had a particular hatred for the Poles; they really considered them subhuman Slavs, and they were very brutal to them.

As a Jew, even if you were not born in Poland, the very name, Poland, gives rise to a shuddering in your body and a longing in your heart. This country was the breeding ground for the soul of the Jewish nation, and unfortunately, also grounds to the largest Jewish cemetery.
