QUOTES

"It is important to remind young people that peace is the only victory."

"Having visited Oxfam-funded school programs in rural communities has made me realise how vital education is to developing countries in bringing people out of poverty and giving them a sense of dignity, self-worth and confidence."

"I'm not a statistician, but it doesn't take a genious to work out that 100 million children being denied an education is ridiculous. There is nothing lost in translation here, it's obvious that's wrong.

"It's strange how you have to go the non-profit route to make anything happen because the government is so slow.
