More quotes by Mikhail Gorbachev
We had 10 years after the Cold War to build a new world order and yet we squandered them. The United States cannot tolerate anyone acting independently. Every US president has to have a war.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Dangers await only those who do not react to life.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Nature is reminding us that it used to exist without human beings.
Mikhail Gorbachev
It is better to see once than to hear a hundred times.
Mikhail Gorbachev
America must be the teacher of democracy, not the advertiser of the consumer society. It is unrealistic for the rest of the world to reach the American living standard.
Mikhail Gorbachev
The opponents of perestroika had suffered a defeat, and then they organized the coup.
Mikhail Gorbachev

Mikhail Gorbachev

Mikhail Gorbachev
You are fortunate to live here. If I were your President, I would levy a tax on you for living in San Francisco!
Mikhail Gorbachev
Gentlemen, comrades, do not be concerned about all you hear about Glasnost and Perestroika and democracy in the coming years. They are primarily for outward consumption. There will be no significant internal changes in the Soviet Union, other than for cosmetic purposes. Our purpose is to disarm the Americans and let them fall asleep.
Mikhail Gorbachev
You cannot go to sleep with one form of economic system and wake up the next morning with another.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Political leaders still think things can be done through force, but that cannot solve terrorism. Backwardness is the breeding ground of terror, and that is what we have to fight.
Mikhail Gorbachev
The phenomenon of UFOs does exist, and it must be treated seriously.
Mikhail Gorbachev
My life's work has been accomplished. I did all that I could.
Mikhail Gorbachev
A new generation of more educated people started to be active. Then society required freedom, society demanded freedom.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Today, peace means the ascent from simple coexistence to cooperation and common creativity among countries and nations.
Mikhail Gorbachev
It would be naive to think that the problems plaguing mankind today can be solved with means and methods which were applied or seemed to work in the past.
Mikhail Gorbachev
I began to feel the desire for something more I wanted to do something to make things better.
Mikhail Gorbachev
The emerging 'environmentalization' of our civilization and the need for vigorous action in the interest of the entire global community will inevitably have multiple political consequences. Perhaps the most important of them will be a gradual change in the status of the United Nations. Inevitably, it must assume some aspects of a world government.
