Education is very political, because when you educate the people, then you have a country that you can't fool anymore.

Your color doesn't define your brain nor your soul. You can stand next to any human being and challenge that person as long as you use your brain.

Dream big, as long as you do it in sync with your truth, with your heart, your brain. And you are not hurting anybody, go ahead and do it.

If you're on stage and you're more concerned about your dress, and then you think that the public is accessory, you got nothing to do there.

You can fall, but you can rise also.

It doesn't matter what challenge you face, the most important thing is, when you fall, how you rise and how high you want to go, where you want to go from that rise on.

Everyone wins when children - and especially girls – have access to education. An educated girl is likely to increase her personal earning potential and prepare herself for a productive and fulfilling life, as well as reduce poverty in the whole community. Investing in girls' education also helps delay early marriage and parenthood. Our booming economies in Africa need more female engineers, teachers and doctors to prosper and sustain growth.
