You have no right to criticise Russia over Chechnya.

I especially love driving down a hill directly at a tree and swerving to one side at the last moment. That's my way to relax.

Let's not talk about Communism. Communism was just and idea, just pie in the sky.

We want peace and a political solution to the situation in Chechnya.

Storm clouds of terror and dictatorship are gathering over the whole country... They must not be allowed to bring eternal night.

Gorbachev gave us freedom of worship and freedom of speech and freedom to see what was going on and freedom to vote, but that freedom won't last unless it is underpinned by economic freedom.

Liberty sets the mind free, fosters independence and unorthodox thinking and ideas. But it does not offer instant prosperity or happiness and wealth to everyone.
