My father was a great historian. And well, he taught me several things. He said that the first condition for a living organism is to identify danger in time. Because if you don't, you could be devoured, you could be destroyed very quickly. And that's the nature of human conflict. In fact, for the Jewish people, we didn't.

We lost the capacity to identify danger in time, and we were almost devoured and destroyed by the Nazi threat. So when I see somebody parroting the Nazi goal of destroying the Jewish state, I try to mobilize the country and the world in time, because I think Iran is a global threat, not only a threat to Israel. That's the first thing.

The second thing is I once asked him before I got elected, I said, well, what do you think is the most important quality for a prime minister of Israel? And he came back with a question, what do you think? And I said, well, you have to have vision and you have to have the flexibility of navigating and working towards that vision, be flexible, but understand where you're heading and

And he said, well, you need that for anything. You need it for, you know, if you're a university president or if you're a leader of a corporation or anything. Anybody would have to have that. I said, all right, so what do you need for it to be the leader of Israel? He said... He came back to me with a word that stunned me. He said, education.

You need a broad and deep education or you'll be at the mercy of your clerks or the press or whatever. You have to be able to do that. As I spend time in government, being re-elected by the people of Israel, I recognize more and more how right it was. You need to constantly ask yourself, where's the direction we want to take the country? How do we achieve that goal, but also understand that

New disciplines are being added. You have to learn all the time. You have to learn all the time. You have to add to your intellectual capital all the time. Kissinger said that, he wrote that once you enter public life, you begin to draw on your intellectual capital and it'll be depleted very quickly if you stay a long time. I disagree with that.

I think you have to constantly, constantly increase your understanding of things as they change because my father was right. You need to broaden and deepen your education as you go along. You can't just sit back and say, well, I studied some things in university or in college or in Boston or at MIT, and that's enough. I've done it. No. Learn, learn, learn, learn, learn.
