I love you breathlessly, my amazing man.

All good things come to those who wait.

There are some battles, no matter how much you don’t want to fight them, that you just have to fight. That are worth giving your life for.

You are my hand grenade, my artillery fire. You have replaced my heart with yourself.

Tania, there is so much still ahead of you. Be patient with life

This is the new politics. Personal responsibility. Not leaving it to others. I am my planet's keeper.

I think we should follow a simple rule: if we can take the worst, take the risk.

A reactionary is someone who wants to return to a previous state - that's never a possibility in my books. For me, everything's irreversible in the life of a society, as well as an individual's.

But it's about health, not forcing my body to be something it's not meant to be.
