Sometimes one has to take on responsibilities that weren't those one imagined.

He who calls a person a fascist for opposing independence is not only wrong but putting themselves on the same level as those who call us Nazis for wanting independence.

Spain's constitution was introduced to cement democracy after Franco's dictatorship, but this government is exploiting its wording as a means to deny us our right to vote.

The best leaders don't set timid and selfish goals but instead set bold targets that may be harder to achieve.

We must have serious dialogue between Catalonia and the Spanish state on a referendum, on independence, and on how a separation from Spain - if that's what the Catalan people choose - would be accomplished.

Spain's parties must steel themselves to do the sensible thing and treat the Catalonia issue with the seriousness it deserves.
