——2005年2月24日 斯洛伐克首都布拉迪斯拉发，在与美国总统布什共同举行的记者招待会上就布什批评俄罗斯民主而发言

The greatest tool we have is the power of our minds.

如果你懂得倾听，夜晚充满了低语。

I think we have been through a period where too many people have been given to understand that if they have a problem, it's the government's job to cope with it. 'I have a problem, I'll get a grant.' 'I'm homeless, the government must house me.' They're casting their problem on society. And, you know, there is no such thing as society. There are individual men and women, and there are families. And no government can do anything except through people, and people must look to themselves first. It's our duty to look after ourselves and then, also to look after our neighbour. People have got the entitlements too much in mind, without the obligations.

"Don't let yesterday take up too much of today."
