Quotes

  • “The inability of those in power to still the voices of their own consciences is a great force leading to change.”
  • “People see him as a hero. Not just in Zimbabwe or here in Zambia but across the whole of southern Africa. It's no good demonising Robert Mugabe.”
  • “If the Government cannot without demoralizing so badly it's own people, then that government is no good and it must give way to people who can.”
