I am deeply convinced that happiness does not exist in this world.

I was never afraid of anything in the world except the dentist.

I wanted to acquire an education, work extremely hard and never deviate from my goal, to make it.

If God treats you well by teaching you a disastrous lesson, you never forget it.

Under the previous regime of Prime Minister Meles Zenawi, I was detained. So was my wife, Serkalem Fasil. She gave birth to our son in prison in 2005.

If you're not having a good time, find something else that gives you some joy in life.
