• I'm a military man, I did what I did only because my country had to be saved from tribalism and feudalism. If I failed, it was only because I was betrayed. The so-called genocide was nothing more than just a war in defence of the revolution and a system from which all have benefited.

• Judge not that ye be judged; we carried the torch to the goal.

  Your body is woven of ours: see that the torch is alight.

  Edward Joseph Harrington O'Brien

I learned that nobody's better than you to get your business off the ground. The experience you get is priceless.
