What I was really overwhelmed with by Africa was its tremendous natural beauty; I got to go to some pretty amazing places.

Women in Africa are really the pillar of the society, are the most productive segment of society, actually. Women do kids. Women do cooking. Women doing everything.

United States has always been very close to Africa and it’s very sad now to see that Africa has a lot more friends - a lot more engagements with the Chinese, with the Indians, with the Brazilians as the United States retreats.

Let me be very blunt: the heterosexual transmission of AIDS is, in Africa, a function of truly pathological promiscuity.

I do normal kind of contributions, particularly for people who are going over to Africa and help highlighting global health, and that’s tended to be pretty bipartisan in nature because of the coalition there exists fortunately around these global health issues. But I don’t think my backing, putting a lot of money into political contributions is a way I’m going to try and help improve the world Picture Quote #1

I believe that the fundamental proposition is that we must recognize that the hostilities in Europe, in Africa, and in Asia are all parts of a single world conflict. We must, consequently, recognize that our interests are menaced both in Europe and in the Far East Picture Quote #1

When I went to live in South Africa, I immediately began to understand what went wrong. Because here was a place supposed to be under apartheid - I arrived there in 1991 - but here a black person had more say and had more influence over his white government than an average Kenyan had over the Moi government Picture Quote #1
