I shall not return to Constantinople until I have conquered Egypt!

I am ashamed of my nation.

800,000 Armenian deportees were actually killed... by holding the guilty accountable the government is intent on cleansing the bloody past.

With us it is not a question of Bolshevism or democracy, but of life or death. A decision in favor of a Soviet could not be opposed by the Young Turks.

There is nothing in the world that could make me turn from the law. With a clear conscience, I am prepared to answer for each and every one of my political and administrative orders and actions, and to do so before the court of public opinion.

I shall not return to Constantinople until I have conquered Egypt!
