You are as free as a prisoner in an open air prison
~ Bangambiki Habyarimana
Eternity is today
I don't care about eternity. I was not their when it began, I will not be there when it ends
Gods are fragile beings. They depend on the hospitality of those who believe in them
An angry enemy is a conquered enemy
It’s not that the hero is blind to the dangers of the journey, it’s those dangers that raise the hero in him
Some people should never be told truth. Their stomachs are not mature enough for that type of food
Truth is like beauty, it lies in the mind of the beholder
Truth was not meant to be told but found
Everyone prays to his own god, that's why miracles happen to some and not to others
The giving hand is considered powerful, the receiving hand is considered weak. It’s better to give than to receive.
Planning is worrying based on facts
Politicians look for interests not people
A politician will promise the moon but deliver an ant hill
Mix carefully truth and deceit, you have politics
In theory man is put at the center of everything but in practice he is barely allowed to sit on the sidelines
We fight exploitation of man by man in words but live it in daily life
Live as if you were a country and other people as other nations. Then learn politics
Politics preys on people's naivety
Politicians are a breed of the human race who believe they know everything
Be persistent like a mosquito, at the end you will get your bite
They will call you immoral if you dare to describe their immorality
Only the weak hit the fly with a hammer
The only way anyone can hope to live after death is if he leaves something that posterity can remember him for.
Hoarding can never end, for the heart of man always covets for more, its raging appetites can only be quenched by the heavy sands of the grave.
There is no one who is completely evil as to lack some goodness in him.
You say you need to love others, but do you love yourself
You marvel and applaud big heroes in their big heroic actions, and forget you are a hero in your humble life and have modest heroic actions to complete yourself.
There is no pleasure in fighting a weak opponent
Its ok to be different, the climate is not the same in every mind
Keep quiet and the enemy will reveal himself.
The best way to destroy your enemies is to make them adopt your worldview
Some enemies are part and parcel of our lives, we cannot destroy them without risking our own survival
Envy is a sign that you are being overtaken
Be happy when people envy you, you are on the right path
Fact is is always truth but truth is not always fact
If you have ever wanted to serve god, go on and serve him. Don't wait to be authorized by anybody. He is not copyrighted
Read whatever book you lay your hands on if you can, for every writer has a story to tell
Our thoughts shape how we behave.
Make your paradise here on earth, your own little paradise
