Edward Snowden

I believe that all information should be free.

The government's actions are not about security, they're about power.

I'm just a guy who saw something wrong and tried to fix it.

The internet is a weapon.

I'm not a hero, I'm just a person who did what I thought was right.

The only way to ensure privacy is to encrypt everything.

I don't regret anything I've done.

The government is lying to the public.

I'm not a spy, I'm a public servant.

The government has overstepped its bounds.

I'm not trying to bring down the government, I'm trying to uphold the Constitution.

The world is changing, and we need to change with it.

I'm not a politician, I'm a human being.

The government is not benevolent.

I'm not a criminal, I'm a whistleblower.

The government is not transparent.

I'm not a traitor, I'm a patriot.

The government is not accountable.

I'm not trying to be a martyr.

I'm not trying to be famous.
