More quotes by Mikhail Gorbachev
I certainly wouldn't say that we loved the arms race. Trillions of dollars were used to stoke it. For our economy, which was smaller in size than the American economy, it was a burden. But one cannot agree with the statement that the arms race played the key role in the collapse of the Soviet Union.
Mikhail Gorbachev
We must speak more clearly about sexuality, contraception, about abortion, about values that control population, because the ecological crisis, in short, is the population crisis. Cut the population by 90% and there aren't enough people left to do a great deal of ecological damage.
Mikhail Gorbachev
We are all passengers aboard one ship, the Earth, and we must not allow it to be wrecked. There will be no second Noah's Ark.
Mikhail Gorbachev
My life's work has been accomplished. I did all that I could.
Mikhail Gorbachev
In October 1917, we parted with the old world, rejecting it once and for all. We are moving toward a new world, a world of Communism. We shall never turn off that road.
Mikhail Gorbachev
I support freedom and I support a free market economy, but it should be a socially oriented market economy. I support globalization, but it should be globalization with a human face.
Mikhail Gorbachev
We are not abandoning our convictions, our philosophy or traditions, nor do we urge anyone to abandon theirs.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Contemporary social democracy is what I believe is the right concept.
Mikhail Gorbachev
For the first time ever, we have confronted in reality the sinister power of uncontrolled nuclear energy.
Mikhail Gorbachev
What we need is Star Peace and not Star Wars.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Even today, a majority of people surveyed say that they regret the fact that the USSR collapsed. But only 9 percent say that they would want it back.
Mikhail Gorbachev
It is my firm belief that the infinite and uncontrollable fury of nuclear weapons should never be held in the hands of any mere mortal ever again, for any reason.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Putin wants to stay in power, but not so that he can finally solve our most pressing problems: education, health care, poverty.
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
To me, nature is sacred. Trees are my temples and forests are my cathedrals.
Mikhail Gorbachev
We have no right ever to forget that psychological warfare is a struggle for winning people's minds.
Mikhail Gorbachev
If you want Russia to be a real fully developed partner, then America should invest in Russia and activate Russia as a strong nation.
Mikhail Gorbachev
I think the United States is sick. It suffers from the sickness, the disease of being the victor and it needs to cure itself from this disease.
Mikhail Gorbachev
I began to feel the desire for something more I wanted to do something to make things better.
Mikhail Gorbachev
History punishes those that come late to it.
