Keep Your Friends Close -

I Started To Make A Study Of The Art Of War And Revolution And, Whilst Abroad, Underwent A Course In Military Training. If There Was To Be Guerrilla Warfare, I Wanted To Be Able To Stand And Fight With My People And To Share The Hazards Of War With Them.

The Call Now Is For Each Of Us To Ask Ourselves: Are We Doing All We Can To Help Build The Country Of Our Dreams?

It Is Necessary To Heal The Wounds Of The Past If You Are Going To Build Your Country And To Have Unity. I Am Working With People Who Fought Me Very Bitterly Before The Elections. It Was My Responsibility As The Man Who Is Leading The Majority Party, My Responsibility To Heal The Wounds Of The Past And To Work With People Who Were My Opponents.

When I Closed The Grapes Of Wrath, I Was A Different Man. It Enriched My Powers Of Thinking And Discipline, And My Relationships. I Left Prison More Informed Than When I Went In. And The More Informed You Are, The Less Arrogant And Aggressive You Are.

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.
