Value Quotes

“Pesa ina thamani pale unapokuwa nayo, si pale unapokuwa huna, hivyo iweke mahali unapoweza kuiona: katika nyumba, katika shamba au katika elimu. Badala ya kumpa mtu pesa ili ajenge nyumba, mpe nyumba. Badala ya kumpa mtu pesa ili afanye biashara, mpe biashara. Halafu, mpe elimu afanye maamuzi ya biashara yake. Pesa ina laana na Mungu pekee ndiye anayeweza kuiondoa laana hiyo. Ni rahisi kwa tajiri kupata baraka ya pesa kwa sababu ana pesa na ana uwezo mkubwa wa kusaidia maskini. Ni vigumu kwa maskini kupata baraka ya pesa kwa sababu hana au ana uwezo mdogo wa kusaidia maskini. Mungu anaweza kuondoa laana ya pesa kupitia hisani kwa maskini, kitu ambacho aghalabu hufanywa na matajiri wenye uwezo mkubwa. Heri kutoa kitu au huduma au elimu kwa maskini kuliko pesa.”

“In days long past, Jarod said he’d write a sentence about my love, translated in Russian, and that sentence, like my love, is clearly not for sale, unlike his virginity, or this book, which I’m both offering at ten times the market value, so hurry up and buy now, before it goes down.”

“Journalism is not like fiction and will never be. In fiction, you can feed people with lies, yet at the end of the reading, people still live the same life - go to work, eat, come back home, and sleep - nothing really changes aside from, at the very least, their perception of the world. But, things are different in journalism. You tell people a barefaced life, they will believe it, and something is going to happen. People will promptly respond to what they believe is true because it relates to their life, and we take life seriously, don't we?”
