Letter from Gotse Delchev to Nikola Maleshevski (1899) - "Sofia, 1 May 1899,
Kolyo (Nikola),
I have received all the letters sent by you and through you. Let us not allow the splits and splintering to frighten us. It is, indeed, a pity, but what can we do, since we are Bulgarians and all suffer from one common disease. If this disease had not been present in our ancestors, from whom we inherited it, they would have never fallen under the sceptre of the Turkish Sultan..."

‪Sandanski that not only was in the BULGARIAN army, but has also openly stated :‬ ‪"свободна българска Македония"‬ ‪"Free BULGARIAN Macedonia"‬ ‪and in this little interview he gave to Branislav Nusic:‬ ‪question by Branislav Nusic: ...So, you are not allowed to enter Bulgaria?"‬ ‪answer by Yane Sandanski: "I dare not go to Bulgaria, but I don't need it. "Here is my BULGARIA"‬

‪"Why are we ashamed and flee from the truth that whole positive Macedonian revolutionary tradition comes exactly from exarchist part of Macedonian people. We shall not say a new truth if we mention the fact that everyone, Gotse Delchev, Dame Gruev, Gjorche Petrov, Pere Toshev were teachers of the Bulgarian Exarchate in Macedonia." LJUBCO GEORGIEVSKI‬
