I know there isn't anything I can do that will please everybody. But if I have done according to my beliefs, I sleep very very well.

The politicians think that I have not included enough of them; the nonpoliticians think that I have gone back to the old ways; and the mass public groups think I have forgotten them.

One must be frank to be relevant.

I salute the 51 congressmen who voted (for the impeachment complaints.) It's not over yet. There will always be hope.

I was very privileged and really blessed with so many material and spiritual gifts that I should give back, ... I should do something for my people, but ... it's not just in politics that you can be a servant of the people, you can do it in so many other ways.

I just do whatever it is that I believe I should do, regardless of the risks to my life.

It is true you cannot eat freedom and you cannot power machinery with democracy. But then neither can political prisoners turn on the light in the cells of a dictatorship.
