I have enough energy to insist on saying what I think.

I don't think people are fools, and I think they deserve a good attitude and smart entertainment.

I am interested in the subject which is Russia.

People know that I am a very good author. But they would rather read what I have to say about the next election.

Art has nothing to do with politics. It is the freest thing in the world.

If there is a pattern, it will come back - maybe in Russia more than anywhere else, because it has collapsed so many times. Maybe less so here in the States, because here the society is so young.
