The old bastions of the post-communist regime collapsed before my very eyes. The monsters who had kept Ukraine in a criminal state left the stage.

I just heard the latest joke about my hair: 'Do you know what that is on her head? It's a steering wheel to drive the state.

Everything that I have is natural - braid, nails - I practically never use cosmetics. They often ask me in the provinces about my braid.

The post-Soviet mafia wove a spider's web of dirty money around the world. Where better to attack it than to start with the Ukrainian criminal heavyweights - the 'family' and its closest circle?

I know the Russian political elite has got used to the Ukraine suffering from an inferiority complex, but I want this to disappear from our relationship.

I think women have to change their hairstyle from time to time.

Whenever you see a successful woman, look out for three men who are going out of their way to try to block her.

I think everyone remembers how certain Russian bureaucrats used to work against the Ukrainian opposition; I think it is hard to drop old habits.

I ask you, people who care about the soul of Ukraine, those who want to preserve the heart, the spirit and the faith of our country for future generations, to please defend it.

I am sure that all complaints regarding me were initiated from Ukraine.

I never complain. I chose the road of fighting with the Ukrainian oligarchy in 1996, and have paid for this with my freedom and that of my husband, my father and my close friends.

Life is all about Peace and LOVE

The first time I watched him fight, I got hard. My heart pounded in my chest, and I chewed on my lip until it bled. I vowed then I would make him mine.

If I eat a huge meal and I can get the girl to rub my belly, I think that's about as romantic as I can think of.

He was one of those men who, as in youth they are never very young, so in age are they never very old.

Memory is satisfied desire.

In my writing I'm trying to explore the violations people commit upon each other.

Men are not conditioned to be less powerful than a woman. It will be the wise woman who realizes this and is sensitive to that issue.

Brotherly love is the badge of Christ's disciples.

Being transparent about our plans enables us to get better feedback.
