For me, dreaming is simply being pragmatic.

I am a president who also gives pardons. Usually my considerations are humane.

We have to be reasonable people.

Bulgaria is a true friend of Israel, that stood up to save the Jewish people 70 years ago in Europe, and who stood by throughout the terror attack that took place in Burgas last July.

We are the only country who is an ally of the United States that never asked for American soldiers.

I read when I get up in the morning, when I can during the day and every single evening. Most of my weekends are spent reading great books. Books are my constant companions. If you eat three times a day you'll be fed. But if you read three times a day you'll be wise.

We should use our imagination more than our memory.
