There's no alternative to Catalan independence.

The alternative to independence is decline, because the relationship with the Spanish state is not good; everyone knows that.

The independence project in Catalonia is... a peaceful revolution, carried out in suit, shirt, and tie.

I don't believe there will be anyone who will use violence or who will want to provoke violence that will tarnish the irreproachable image of the Catalan independence movement as pacifist.

We show each day that we are prepared to act as an independence state... Not just in exceptional moments.

Our plan is what the Scottish government had with the U.K. It's an agreement to consult over the independence of Catalonia. And we will not abandon this plan until the end.
