“Shakespeare must be a black girl.”

“Everything in the universe has a rhythm, everything dances.”

“Facts can obscure the truth.”

“The footpath down to the well is healed.”

“When we walk, we naturally go to the fields and woods: what would become of us, if we walked only in a garden or a mall?”

“Nature has no use for the plea that one 'did not know'.”

“The commerce between India and Africa will be of ideas and services, not of the manufactured goods against raw materials after the fashion of the Western exploiters.”

“I dream of an Africa which is in peace with itself.”

“I never knew of a morning in Africa when I woke that I was not happy.”
