NAME:
“General Emílio Garrastazu Médici made few statements during his government, but every time he did, he said memorable things. On March 22, 1973, for example, he commented: “I feel happy every night when I turn on the television to watch the newspaper. While the news reports strikes, unrest, attacks and conflicts in various parts of the world, Brazil marches in peace, towards development. It's like I took a tranquilizer after a day's work.”
