dbp:quote
  • “He was one of the blackest Africans I have ever seen...His expression was wistful, yet purposeful, like that of a man with few illusions but determined not to be got down by his experience...He was the only man who at that stage had a real insight into the political and social structures of the country and who was bold enough to challenge the narrow policy of the university." (en)
  • "I'm as much or more interested in Africanisation as any politician. But we have to get the right people. Most of these politicians see no reason why their relatives shouldn't be given jobs. I try to explain that the civil service is not a dumping-ground for party hacks. But many of them fail to see why it shouldn't be." (en)
  • "Here we come, I think, to the crux of the misunderstanding that has led to so much rancour and so much bloodshed. For it has been the conviction — conscious and unconscious — of many colonizing powers that on the other side of the confrontation there is nothing. Too often have they failed to recognize that even the poorest people, even those whose way of existence is evidence of a complete inability to meet the challenge that nature poses to man, even people such as these can have their own dignity and can be jealous of it."
