VIKTOR ORBAN

It would be a sad story to get rid of religious belief, national identity, family, and even sexual identity. That's not freedom.

Irresponsibility is the mark of every European politician who holds out the promise of a better life to immigrants and encourages them to leave everything behind and risk their lives in setting out for Europe.

Europe has the technology, the strategic and economic might to defend itself.

Hungary was the only Central European country that was not able to create a new constitution after the collapse of the communist regime.

We will not import crime, terrorism, homophobia, and a brand of anti-Semitism that sets synagogues ablaze.

In Hungary, if homosexuals would like to live together, they can do so under the civil code. But what we call marriage is exclusively for one man and one woman. We are a Christian country. That's a historical fact.

Life starts at conception and must be protected from the first moment.

It is not in our interest to sign economic policy agreements with the IMF, as that unnecessarily limits the room to manoeuvre of... the Hungarian government, Hungarian parliament and lawmakers.

Kadar died as a mass killer, and the Hungarian nation can't forget that.

Turkey is a safe country. Stay there.

The best migrant is the migrant who does not come.

Europe and European identity is rooted in Christianity.

Take seriously the traditions, the Christian roots, and all the values that are the basis of the civilisation of Europe.

The Hungarians, by nature, are not extreme. They become more extreme only when they are forced to fight for their freedom, as was in the case in the uprising against the communists in 1956 or the revolution against the Austrian Empire. They will not turn extreme in the name of despotism.

The migration wave can be stopped.

We need to fight to prove to people that it is possible to form an E.U. migration policy that is in line with the Hungarian national interest.

Europe can be saved.

Brussels' stance against Poland is not just... they should give more respect to the Poles.

We think that without cooperation with the Russians, we cannot achieve our goals.

These activists who support immigrants inadvertently become part of this international human-smuggling network.

Protecting a border is not a nice thing. It is not a matter of aesthetics; it cannot be done with flowers and teddy bears.

The Hungarian interest is that, if necessary, we should make loan agreements with the IMF on a regular basis.

With a successful center-right party such as ours, it is hard for the radical right to find room to operate. This is why they repeatedly attack us in the ugliest manner. They attack us more than they attack the Jewish community or the 'Jewish conspiracy' - which they believe exists. I am one of their main targets.

I don't think that our European Union membership precludes us from building an illiberal new state based on national foundations.

If Europe's outer border is not blocked off, it makes no sense to speak of quotas.
