Technical know-how of the experts must be transformed into practical do-how of the people.

I must dedicate my life to teaching my people, for only education would make their lot less bitter, their latent power more strong.

True independence is not a gift to be received. It can't be a hand-out to people. It must be an achievement by the people.

Go to the people and live among them in order to know them and learn from them.

Relief has its place. But what the people need is not relief, but release - release of their own potential for development.

We work with the people not out of pity but out of respect for their potential for growth and development, both as individuals and as communities.

The people are the foundation of the nation. Our only chance for a lasting peace on earth: the release of the strength of the common man.
