I believe that what's much more important is not what you say, but what you do. And I am a doer.

You can organize elections any day, even tomorrow. But what will be the result of chaotic elections? More chaos!

What is the situation today? We have a united country. We have a single currency. We have managed to stabilize the economy, despite difficulties. We could talk all day about all those achievements.

Nobody as of today can produce any oral or written statement from me talking about changing the constitution.

One of the reasons why a number of people have decided to go into the opposition were the reforms we carried out.

We are not going to finance elections when we need to fight to win back occupied territory.

The constitution is very clear as to how and when the president hands over power. He can only hand power over to an elected successor.

When Europe senses danger, it needs to do something to keep all the Africans at home where they belong.

Democracy was assassinated here when Patrice Lumumba was assassinated. And who brought democracy back to this country? We are the ones who did that after pushing out the dictatorship in 1997.

The West exploited Africa and now it wants to save it. We have been living with this hypocrisy for too long. Africa can only be saved by Africans.

I cannot interpret the constitution. Only the constitutional courts can interpret the constitution.

If you insist on being determined by the past that's your game, but the fact of the matter is it all starts right now.

I'm an indestructible master of war.

I'm a mathematician, basically. What I do is look around for problems where I can find useful applications for mathematics. All I do, really, is the math, and other people have the ideas.

I'm just a normal girl who really enjoys her job, and so you have to take the other things that come with being in the public eye.

I did not know I was in my prime until afterwards.

To take good care of yourself and to take good care of living beings and of the environment is the best way to love God.

When I'm [playing] a character, I can look at it and know it's not me and not be concerned with how it looks.

Unfortunately, moral beauty in art - like physical beauty in a person - is extremely perishable.

This is the potential start of something...awareness

A speckled cat and a tame hare Eat at my hearthstone And sleep there; And both look up to me alone For learning and defence As I look up to Providence.
