We tried in our simple way to lead our life in a manner that may make a difference to those of others.

It is always impossible until it is done.

Negotiation and discussion are the greatest weapons we have for promoting peace and development.

Education is the great engine of personal development. It is through education that the daughter of a peasant can become a doctor, that the son of a mineworker can become the head of the mine, that a child of farm workers can become the president of a great nation. It is what we make out of what we have, not what we are given, that separates one person from another.

What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.

Children are the most important asset in a country. For them to become that asset, they must receive education and love from their parents.

Resentment is like a glass of poison that a man drinks; then he sits down and waits for his enemy to die.
