Our march to freedom is irreversible. We must not allow fear to stand in our way.

Courageous people do not fear forgiving, for the sake of peace.

Only through hardship, sacrifice and militant action can freedom be won. The struggle is my life. I will continue fighting for freedom until the end of my days.

Let us give publicity to HIV/AIDS and not hide it, because [that is] the only way to make it appear like a normal illness

I cannot overemphasise the value we place on a free, independent and outspoken press

I say to all those leaders, do not look the other way. Do not hesitate... It is within your power to avoid a genocide of humanity.

Whether you change the linen or stitch up wounds, cook the food or dispense the medicines, it is in your hands to help build a public service worthy of all those who gave their lives for the dream of democracy
