The whole object of travel is not to set foot on foreign land; it is at last to set foot on one's own country as a foreign land.

A Country is not a mere territory; the particular territory is only its foundation. The Country is the idea which rises upon that foundation; it is the sentiment of love, the sense of fellowship which binds together all the sons of that territory.

We have forgotten that we have not come to an empty land to inherit it, but we have come to conquer a country from people inhabiting it, that governs it by the virtue of its language and savage culture.

In 1988, King Hussein of Jordan said that it doesn't take any connection any more to those territories, and he would like to split from those territories. So according to the international law, it doesn't belong to anyone.

Territory is but the body of a nation. The people who inhabit its hills and valleys are its soul, its spirit, its life.

The land is ours. It's not European and we have taken it, we have given it to the rightful people... Those of white extraction who happen to be in the country and are farming are welcome to do so, but they must do so on the basis of equality.

You can either invade a country or leave them alone and trade with them. When goods cross borders, armies don't.

In the past, on Earth, it has largely been to exploit foreign resources and to expand the domestic territory.
