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.

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.

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.

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