“Everyone should look in the mirror, before pointing a finger. Maybe you are the person everyone is complaining about, but you don't see it. Women know the wrong things they do, and man also know the wrong things they do. Even if everyone denies it and trying to be innocent in public.

Everyone needs to work on themselves and fix the wrongs they do. That is how we will fix the country.”
