Quotes by Paul Rusesabagina (?)

“I still wonder how policy officials... can sit down at the table with their families and have any appetite for food, or go to sleep at night, knowing that they failed to act. Human beings were sacrificed for political convenience. This would be enough, I think, to turn any reasonable man into a prisoner of his own conscience for the rest of his life.”
― Paul Rusesabagina

“Kindness is not an illusion and violence is not a rule. The true resting state of human affairs is not represented by a man hacking his neighbor into pieces with a machete. That is a sick aberration. No, the true state of human affairs is life as it ought to be lived.”
― Paul Rusesabagina, An Ordinary Man: An Autobiography

“This is why I say that the individual's most potent weapon is a stubborn belief in the triumph of common decency.”
