Boris Yeltsin

It is important to understand that the world is not a simple place.

I have always been a fighter.

I'm not a drunk, I'm just a very thirsty man.

I'm a man of the people.

We are building a new Russia.

It's not easy to be a president.

I hate communism, but I love Russia.

The future is in our hands.

I'm a simple man, but I have a strong will.

I'm not a dictator. I'm an elected president.

We need more freedom, more democracy, more market economy.

I'm not perfect, but I'm trying.

The greatest victory is to defeat the enemy without fighting.

I'm not a fan of corruption.

I believe in the power of the individual.

I'm a survivor. I've been through a lot.

I want to see Russia strong and prosperous.

I'm not a communist. I'm a democrat.

The people are my strength.

I'm not a fan of bureaucracy.
