Votes do not fall from the trees like ripe plums. They have to be fought for.

We tend to get what we expect.

Those of us who have been privileged to receive education, skills, and experiences and even power must be role models for the next generation of leadership.

Before you can control conditions, you must first control yourself.

The defence of our rights and our dignity, as well as efforts never to let ourselves to be overcome by the feeling of hatred - this is the road we have chosen.

Let my enemies devour each other.
