•  We Turks are a kind of a nation that have been symbol of liberty and independence throughout the history. •  Gentlemen, may in your life you become a deputy, may you become a minister, may you even become a president, but you may never become an artist. •  Full happiness and well-being in life can be found only in working for the honour, existence an well-being of the next generations. •  Peace at home, peace in the world. •  “There is no defence of a line, but defence of a ground, and this ground is all Homeland.” •  One day my mortal body will turn to dust, but the Turkish Republic will stand forever. •  Our true mentor in life is science.

•  Authority, without any condition and reservation, belongs to the nation. 

•  ”Gentlemen and you nation, know it well that the Republic of Turkey cannot be a country of sheikhs, dervishes, disciples, and mystics.”

•  “A nation left without art, is a nation whose one of the life veins is broken away.

•  Teachers are the one and only people who save nations.

•  ”There is no command over the nation. There is service to the nation. Those who serve his nation, becomes its master.”

•  To see me does not necessarily mean to see my face. To understand my thoughts and my emotions and if you can feel them, this is enough and that means that you have seen me. 

•  Do not be afraid of telling the truth.

•  Liberty and independence are my character. I must definitely remain as a descend of an independent nation. Then either independence or death!

•  ”I am fond of a sportiest who is smart, active and also decent.”

•  You Turkish Youth! Your first duty is to GUARD and defend the Turkish Independence and the Turkish Republic forever. You will find the strength you need in your noble blood.
