For me, 'revolution' simply means radical change.

I don't think you can work on feelings in politics, apart from anything else, political change can come very unexpectedly, sometimes overnight when you least expect it.

I don't understand why people say that I am full of courage. I feel terribly nervous.

War is not the only arena where peace is done to death.

Freedom and democracy are dreams you never give up.

If I advocate cautious optimism it is not because I do not have faith in the future but because I do not want to encourage blind faith.

A family is very special. So when a family splits up, it's not good, it's never good.

Of course I regret not having been able to spend time with my family.

One wants to be together with one's family. That's what families are about.

It is not power that corrupts but fear. Fear of losing power corrupts those who wield it and fear of the scourge of power corrupts those who are subject to it.
