The first principle of aid is respect.

There's only one thing that all the successful companies in the world have in common: None was started by one person.

The first principle of aid is respect.

If people don't want to be helped, leave them alone.

What you do [to provide better aid is] you shut up. You never arrive in a community with any ideas.

The future of every community lies in capturing the passion, imagination, and resources of its people.

Planning is the kiss of death of entrepreneurship.
