It is the destiny of the people of Haiti to suffer.

When people talk to me about tyranny, it makes me laugh and gives me the impression that people suffer from amnesia.

I am currently in Haiti to help the Haitian people in their reconstruction.

I want to take this opportunity to express, one more time, my deep sadness to those countrymen who feel, rightly, that they were victims of my government.

In 25 years of exile, I've never had a frozen account, either in Switzerland or elsewhere in the world.

I'm the one who initiated the democratic process.

I never had the financial means that the media said I had. I laugh when I hear the amounts, $400 million, $800 million. Where do they get this imagination?

All I know is politics. Really, politics takes up most of my time; it's nonstop.

There has not been one day since I left that I have not thought about Haiti.

As we began discussing authorship of a white paper summarizing our conclusions, we debated who our target audience should be and what kind of outcome we were hoping to achieve.

Look them... look this black hoodies... they are having fun... why you don't try also?(Drugs are good for you..)(Can you think!?)- At least blink!

So if I have two pieces of cake, do I have twice as good an experience as the first piece of cake? One of the things I've found in life is that the first piece of cake is the best.

I cannot remember a time when I was not interested in both gardening and painting. I must have been born with a trowel in one hand and a paintbrush in the other.

I search for the realness, the real feeling of a subject, all the texture around it... I always want to see the third dimension of something... I want to come alive with the object.

I bought properties inexpensively and made a lot of money. I began to think it was easy.

Friendship that flows from the heart cannot be frozen by adversity, as the water that flows from the spring cannogt congeal in winter.

There was something that finished chaos, born before Heaven and Earth.

Christ alone has succeeded in so raising the mind of man toward the unseen, that it becomes insensible to the barriers of time and space.

I believe in telling the truth.
