-----------------------------------

On selflessness
"A fundamental concern for others in our individual and community lives would go a long way in making the world the better place we so passionately dreamt of."
-------------------------------------------

On determination
"Everyone can rise above their circumstances and achieve success if they are dedicated to and passionate about what they do."
---------------------------------------------

On integrity
"Those who conduct themselves with morality, integrity and consistency need not fear the forces of inhumanity and cruelty."
------------------------------------------------

"No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite."
---------------------------------------

"In my country we go to prison first and then become President."
