If you are an envoy of the quartet, you have a certain amount of possibilities in negotiations. If you are the secretary of state of the United States, I would have to say, there is a little more clout associated with it. And to push it over the edge, one needs not envoys, but secretaries of state. - James Wolfensohn Quotes

It is our responsibility. - James Wolfensohn Quotes
