I have been obsessed with this man recently. He does things vigorously and resolutely, without procrastination. He is tough when he should be tough and soft when he should be soft. He is a tough guy and a great leader.
I found "The Biography of Putin" and read it. I feel that the whole book is about Putin's legendary life, which is somewhat subjective. However, the attached quotations from Putin are worth pondering, and every sentence is very reasonable, so I would like to excerpt them for you to share.
1. Anger without strength is meaningless.
2. Do not take up arms if you are not prepared to use force.
3. A real man has to keep figuring things out, while a real woman has to keep struggling.
4. Once you are bullied, you should fight back immediately.
5. Whoever is weak will be destroyed.
6. There is no negotiation on territorial issues, only war.
7. Russia is indeed very large, but not an inch is redundant.
8. If you meet a terrorist in the toilet, drown him in the toilet.
9. Give me 20 years and give you a strong Russia!
10. Why not invite bin Laden to the White House, ask him what he wants, then give him what he wants and let him leave in peace!
11. I am accustomed to learning to allocate necessary time to do something I am willing to do.
12. Engaging in judo is a voluntary thing in my life. It is not only a sport, but also seems to be a philosophy. It teaches me to treat my opponents with respect. 13. Learning English – It’s a bit like an intellectual sports show for me.
14. I don’t need to bring bodyguards when I inspect the Russian army.
15. Russia has only two allies - the army and the navy.
16. Whoever does not regret the disintegration of the Soviet Union has no conscience; whoever wants to restore the Soviet Union of the past has no brains.
17. You know, some people are addicted to cigarettes; some people are addicted to drugs; some people are addicted to money. They say the greatest addiction is the obsession with power. I've never been obsessed with power, I've never been addicted to anything. If God gives me the opportunity to work for my country and people, that is the greatest reward for me.
18. I am not a savior, but an ordinary citizen of Russia. My feelings are the same as those of any citizen of Russia.
19. Even if the Kremlin is sold, a new generation of submarines must be built in time, because this is related to the future of Russia.
20. I have never been an alcoholic. Alcohol does not help solve problems. I enjoy achieving a set goal. If something is holding me back, I remove it. 21. The art of politics is to seek the balance between necessity and possibility. Every time, the specific situation we face is always different. Adapting to the situation is an art in itself.
22. Judo is not a simple sport, but a philosophy. No matter how powerful your opponent is, as long as you master the skills and seize the opponent's weaknesses, you can take advantage of the situation to defeat the opponent. "Softness" is to overcome "hardness", and concession is to win.
23. We can no longer ignore the life and death of the elderly, and we can no longer watch poor children cry indifferently!
24. Once you decide to fight this fight, you must persist until the end. In other words, if you don’t fight, you will win, if you fight, you will win!
25. Books - of course they are important, but there are more important things around you in life - family and friends.
26. I think I have worked hard over the years. And, I work sincerely. The people must have felt it. I promise you that I will work in the same way for the next four years.
27. You should not work for some absurd ideal that no one understands. You should always work based on reality, for the specific people living today, and for the future generations living tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
28. There is only one training in Russia, which is to love your country. If we lose the spirit of patriotism, we will lose our national pride and dignity, and we will also lose the people who can create great achievements.
29. I am full of admiration for Peter the Great, but I do not think that all his words and deeds are correct. For example, he once ordered the citizens of Petersburg to drink coffee or smoke.
