Not a single leaf moves in this country if I'm not the one moving it.

During 65 years, I have walked the path of duty and discipline... And today, looking back at that long path of service, my soldier's heart stirs and murmurs from deep within: Thank you. Thank you, my homeland.

I was only an aspiring dictator. I was never a real dictator.

Sometimes democracy must be bathed in blood.

Rome cut off the heads of Christians and they continued to reappear one way or another. Something similar happens with Marxists.

My moral and spiritual formation does not allow me to be a dictator... If I were a dictator, You can be sure that many things have happened.

I will die. The person who succeeds me will also have to die. But elections, you won't have.
