Revolutions Are Brought About By

It Is Far Better To Be Free To Govern Or Misgovern Yourself Than To Be Governed By Anybody Else

I Believe Strongly And Sincerely That With The Deep-rooted Wisdom And Dignity, The Innate Respect For Human Lives, The Intense Humanity That Is Our Heritage, The African Race, United Under One Federal Government, Will Emerge Not As Just Another World Bloc To Flaunt Its Wealth And Strength, But As A Great Power Whose Greatness Is Indestructible Because It Is Built Not On Fear, Envy And Suspicion, Nor Won At The Expense Of Others, But Founded On Hope, Trust, Friendship And Directed To The Good Of All Mankind.

The Essence Of Neo-colonialism Is That The State Which Is Subject To It Is, In Theory, Independent And Has All The Outward Trappings Of International Sovereignty. In Reality Its Economic System And Thus Its Political Policy Is Directed From Outside.

We Have Awakened. We Will Not Sleep Anymore. Today, From Now On, There Is A New African In The World!

Those Who Would Judge Us Merely By The Heights We Have Achieved Would Do Well To Remember The Depths From Which We Started.
