Chinese Foreign Policy

Famous quotes containing the words foreign policy, foreign and/or policy:

A foreign minister who waited until everyone agreed with him would have no foreign policy at all.
    —A.J.P. (Alan John Percivale)

    There seeps from heavily jowled or hawk-like foreign faces
    The guttural sorrow of the refugees.

    Men must learn now with pity to dispense,
    For policy sits above conscience.
