The able bodied poor don't want or need charity.... All they need is financial capital.

Business money is limitless.

This is not charity. This is business: business with a social objective, which is to help people get out of poverty.

The profit orientation is only one orientation of a person. The same people who are interested in profit-making are also selfless. I am not saying that capitalist theory is wrong. I am saying that it has not been interpreted and practiced fully.

The fact that the poor are alive is clear proof of their ability.

I avoid grandiose plans. I start with a small piece that I can do. I go to the root of the problem and then work around it. It's building brick by brick.

I’m encouraging young people to become social business entrepreneurs and contribute to the world, rather than just making money. Making money is no fun. Contributing to and changing the world is a lot more fun.
