If your dreams do not scare you, they are not big enough.

Liberia has to take primary responsibility for its own reform agenda. But our resources are limited. We have to attract the private sector to get jobs to our people that will enable us to raise the government revenue, but to do that we have to build infrastructure. It's a very complex problem of development we are facing here.

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

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.

One has to look at my life story to see what I've done. I've paid a heavy price that many people don't realize.

Women work harder. And women are more honest; they have less reasons to be corrupt.

In Liberia, our salary scales are so low that our judicial system has become corrupt over the years. Now, we need to do some things ourselves.
