We've been a country for 150 years but made no progress. This should be a rich country but where has all the money gone? Corruption!

Often the greatest progress happen in the most difficult of times.

The unity of the country, the forward progress of the country would be lost. There are elements of ethnic cleansing, getting a minority community out of an area so that the majority community can take over, in certain parts of Iraq.

Every time I come back here, I see progress, ... . . . This part of the country is changing. You're moving forward.

Increasing union demands on hotels across the country will harm the industry, erasing the progress the tourism industry has made to rebuild after Sept. 11.

Considering this progress, and in the general interest of the country, I ask farmers to lift the barricades in the coming hours.
