Politics is like boxing — you try to knock out your opponents.

Sometimes people mistake the way I talk for what I am thinking. I never had any formal education—not even a nursery school certificate. But sometimes I know more than Ph.D.s because as a military man I know how to act. I am a man of action.

Appears in Barbet Schroeder (1974)
