“Long before the time when the German Emperor Charles V said that he talked German only to his horse, and when the German nobility wrote only in Latin and were ashamed of the German language, in "barbarous" Bulgaria, the Apostles Cyril and Methodius had created and spread the use of the old Bulgarian script.”
— Giorgi Dimitrov, at the , as reported in Mercia MacDermott, A History of Bulgaria: 1393–1885 (1962), p. 18
“Oh, you foolish freaks! Why are you ashamed to call yourself Bulgarians and why don't you read and speak in your mother tongue? Do you believe that the Bulgarians did not have their own czardom and country? For many years, they reigned and were glorious, famous all over the world and they made the powerful Romans and the wise Greeks pay them taxes many times.”
— Paisius of Hilendar, Istoriya Slavyanobolgarskaya (1762), translation reported in Nations and States in Southeast Europe, 2nd ed. (CDRSEE, 2009), p. 27
