That which man dreams of and to Which he aspires, unless fulfilled in his own lifetime, can produce no actual satisfaction to him. It will be self deceiving and a waste of time to advocate dialogue with those who are not ready to listen, because it is obvious that the freedom of millions is not a commodity subject to bargaining. It is better to die free than to live as slaves.
Haile SelassieEveryone, in all walks of life, regardless of his professional occupation should feel concerned and play an active role to solve such problems which affect mankind.
Haile SelassieIf you are open-minded and ready to learn, there are many things which you can learn not only from books and instructors but from the very life experience itself.
Haile SelassieHere is our opportunity and our challenge. If the nuclear powers are prepared to declare a truce, let us seize the moment to strengthen the institutions and procedures which will serve as the means for the pacific settlement of disputes among men.
Haile SelassieWe must act to shape and mold the future, and leave our imprint on events as they slip past into history.
Haile Selassie
