More From Vladimir Putin

Some countries have a parliamentary republic, some are presidential republics and some are still monarchies, but no one sees them as not being democratic. in some countries regional leaders are appointed from the centre and in others they are elected. in russia, the president is elected through direct secret ballot, and in the united states, the president is elected through a system of electoral colleges.

I remember my very first encounter with japan. at that time, i was deputy mayor of st petersburg. out of nowhere, japan's consul general in st petersburg came to my office and said japan's ministry of foreign affairs wanted to invite me to japan. i was very surprised because i had nothing to do with japan except being a judoka. this was an opportunity to visit tokyo and a couple of other cities. and, you know, a capital is a capital everywhere: there is the official script and certain protocol. it is always easier to talk in the provinces, the conversation is more natural.

In the islamic world, the u.s. is seen in two quite different ways. one view recognizes what an extraordinary country the u.s. is.the other view is of the official united states, the united states of armies and interventions. the united states that in 1953 overthrew the nationalist government of mossadegh in iran and brought back the shah. the united states that has been involved first in the gulf war and then in the tremendously damaging sanctions against iraqi civilians. the united states that is the supporter of israel against the palestinians.

You may ask what kind of a republic i dream of. let me reply: i dream of a republic independent, free, and democratic, of a republic economically prosperous and yet socially just; in short, of a humane republic which serves the individual and which therefore holds the hope that the individual will serve it in turn. of a republic of well-rounded people, because without such it is impossible to solve any of our problems, human, economic, ecological, social, or political.

Currently, the united states has troops in dozens of countries and is actively fighting in iraq, syria, libya, and yemen (with the occasional drone strike in pakistan). in addition, the united states is pledged to defend 28 countries in nato. it is unwise to expand the monetary and military obligations of the united states given the burden of our $20 trillion debt.

...black women write differently from white women. this is the most marked difference of all those combinations of black and white, male and female. it's not so much that women write differently from men, but that black women write differently from white women. black men don't write very differently from white men.

Imagine you had a bank that each morning credited your account with $1,440 - with one condition: whatever part of the $1,440 you failed to use during the day would be erased from your account, and no balance would be carried over. what would you do? you'd draw out every cent every day and use it to your best advantage. well, you do have such a bank, and its name is time. every morning, this bank credits you with 1,440 minutes. and it writes off as forever lost whatever portion you have failed to invest to good purpose.

I like horror, but i tend to like it as seasoning. i'd get very bored if i was told i had to write a horror novel. i'd love to write a novel with horror elements, but too much, and it doesn't taste of anything else.

I wonder why anyone would hesitate to be generous with their writing. i mean, if you really want to make a living, go to wall street and trade oil futures ... we're writers. we're doing something that is inherently a generous act. we're exposing ourselves to the muse and to the things that frighten us. why do that if you're not willing to be generous? and paradoxically, almost ironically, it turns out that the more generous you are, the more money you make. but that's secondary. for me, the privilege of being generous is why i get to do this.

More and more in the art world are becoming moralistic, telling artists and critics what they should and shouldn't write, do, or make art about. never mind the intellectual hypocrisy of this: those who violate the clublike code are made out to be wrong, immoral, corrupt.
