I had to choose: Either leave the country, where it's become dangerous for me, or go on the offensive.

Any private security is a joke in a country where youre up against your own government.

I may not be a politician, but I will fight to the end of my life for what I believe in.

Since the whole village was poor, we didnt realize our own poverty. I was happy.

I won't go back on my decision. I'm not afraid of prison, but there are even worse dangers.

A small country like Georgia has little influence on conflicts that must be resolved at the global level.

I get no pleasure from politics; its not in my character.
