THEY SAID IT - VLADIMIR PUTIN

“I have a copy of the Bible in my plane, and I fly a lot. I have the Bible in my plane and I also have an icon there, a special icon, embroidered, but everything is there. If I am flying a long distance - and we have a big country, and I also fly abroad regularly - I have the chance to read the Bible. It is my firm conviction that only religion can provide the moral values without which humanity as a whole and we as individuals cannot live. As for specific institutions or churches, this is a separate issue. Someone said once that if God exists, he does not know that people have different views on the church.” – Russian President Vladimir Putin, TIME Magazine’s Person of the Year
