“Do not make the mistake of finding yourself thinking that you should be someone other than who you are. You should be who you are. You should be as you were created. Look at how to improve yourself, how to make yourself better.
Others were also created in their unique way. You cannot think of becoming the person who did what you admire. Instead, you learn from them so that you become better, true to yourself, as you are, in your own way.
That is how a person is. That is how a family is. And that is how a country is. This country of Rwanda cannot be turned into any other country. Do not even think of it, because it is neither natural nor viable. That is also why, in the way the world is made, with small countries, medium ones, big ones, rich ones, powerful ones, you cannot take a country like Rwanda and change it however you want, because you did not create it. You also cannot take me and make me into whatever you want, because you did not create me.” President Kagame | National Prayer Breakfast.
