Our aim, during our Presidency in the next six months will be to lead this challenge, to show that Europe can function in a mature and responsible way, to start delivering tangible results that show we are taking people's concerns seriously.

So that we focus not on competing visions for Europe but on what Europe can do to improve economic growth, to give us a cleaner environment, to create more jobs, to make us more secure.

The challenge to our national economies and the collective economy of Europe will become - with the growth of China and the continuing productivity growth of the US - even more intense in the decades to come.

I remember a tour where we played 50 cities in 56 days. We also went to Europe a couple of times.

In Europe, they're more demanding, the ones that rent the build ings.

In Europe, architects consider themselves artists. They think they're special when they win a competition.

In the last quarter of the eighteenth century bourgeois Europe needed to emancipate itself from that combination of feudalism and commercial capitalism which we know as mercantilism.

It's a complex fate, being an American, and one of the responsibilities it entails is fighting against a superstitious valuation of Europe.

When we get piled upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, we shall become as corrupt as Europe.

New ideas should confront old ideas. We must refer to the example of Europe. People have fought to make Europe what it is today. Freedom is not something that is served up on a plate.

Although we were The Spice Girls of 1984 in Europe, My work has never been widely promoted in the U.S.

Long after this wonderful event in the Earth's history, when the human species was spread over a good deal of Asia, Europe, and Africa, migration to the American continents began in attempts to find new feeding grounds and unoccupied areas for hunting and fishing.

I went with Lionel Hampton for three years. Out of that came a trip to Europe.

I do not separate France from Europe.
