“During my lifetime I have dedicated myself to this struggle of the African people. I have fought against white domination, and I have fought against black domination.

But if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die.”

Barack Obama

“I already love in you your beauty, but I am only beginning to love in you that which is eternal and ever precious – your heart, your soul.

Leo Tolstoy
