I don't run a woman government. I run a government of people.

I work hard, I work late, I have nothing on my conscience. When I go to bed, I sleep.

I just think that unless you have that cohesiveness in the family unit, the male character tends to become very dominant, repressive and insensitive. So much of this comes also from a lack of education.

Leadership is never given on a silver platter, one has to earn it.

I think the majority of the Liberian people want peace.

In Liberia, the big challenge that remains for us is job creation. We want young people to work or go to school. That is our main preoccupation right now.

The people of Liberia know what it means to be deprived of clean water. But we also know what it means to see our children begin to smile again, with a restoration of hope and faith in the future.
