God and Nature first made us what we are and then out of our own created genius we make ourselves what we want to be. Follow always that great law. Let the sky and God be our limit and Eternity our measurement.

Plants that wake when others sleep. Timid jasmine buds that keep their fragrance to themselves all day but when the sunlight dies away let the delicious secret out to every breeze that roams about.

It is a golden maxim to cultivate the garden for the nose and the eyes will take care of themselves.

One of the matters that must be addressed is that Rwanda and Uganda have to leave the Democratic Republic of the Congo. We're also supporting processes to ensure that the political dialogue among the Congolese themselves takes place so that the people there can decide their future.

The goal of my Foundation is to give young people a chance to better themselves and establish a base for a successful future.

I'd like to think that the actions we take today will allow others in the future to discover the wonders of landscapes we helped protect but never had the chance to enjoy ourselves.
