For me, to celebrate the twelfth of October is the absolute expression of triumphism, occupation and presumptuousness, and I think that history will remember those that celebrate it.

We are not myths of the past, ruins in the jungle, or zoos. We are people and we want to be respected, not to be victims of intolerance and racism.

This world's not going to change unless we're willing to change ourselves.

What I treasure most in life is being able to dream. During my most difficult moments and complex situations I have been able to dream of a more beautiful future.

I am like a drop of water on a rock. After drip, drip, dripping in the same place, I begin to leave a mark, and I leave my mark in many people's hearts.

We have learned that change cannot come through war. War is not a feasible tool to use in fighting against the oppression we face. War has caused more problems. We cannot embrace that path.

We say no to the peace that keeps us on our knees, no to the peace that keeps us in chains, no to the false peace that denies the values and contributions of our peoples.

... only those of us who carry our cause in our hearts are willing to run the risks.

The people are the only ones capable of transforming society.

I wish that a conscious sense of peace and a feeling of human solidarity would develop in all peoples.

There is not one world for man and one for animals, they are part of the same one and lead parallel lives.

But this room looked like it had been decorated by the unholy lovechild of Barbie and Strawberry Shortcake.

Reality is what trips you up when you walk around with your eyes closed.

The path of nonviolence is the path of respect. It is respect towards every being. It is the path of awakening the consciousness of every being.

God warms his hands at man's heart when he prays.

The emotional brain responds to an event more quickly than the thinking brain.

If other things must be destroyed in order for fire to exist, that's all right with fire. As far as fire is concerned, that's what those things are there for in the first place.

A poem is not an expression, nor is it an object. Yet it somewhat partakes of both. What a poem is is never to be known, for which I have learned to be grateful.

I've been changed watching films or reading books or hearing music, and that helps you to live your life.

In God's good time, Which does not always fall on Saturday When the world looks for wages.

With publicity comes humiliation.
