President Bill Clinton discussing a conversation with then-Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin on Sept. 19, 1993, just before Rabin and Arafat sealed their peace accord with a handshake, saying Rabin's words resonate with him still:
"You do not make peace with your friends, but friendship can come with time and trust and humility, when we do not pretend that our willfulness is an expression of God's will."
President Bill Clinton:
"Remember that all the great peacemakers in the world, in the end, have to let go and walk away, like Christ, not from apparent, but from genuine, grievances."
