Haile Selassie
We should accept diversity in culture and tradition and coexist peacefully.
Haile Selassie
A man who says “I have learned enough and will learn no further” should be considered as knowing nothing at all.
Haile Selassie
Our youth must be steadfast and take advantage of the benefits of modern civilization. Do not fall prey to idleness for it shall be a curse to you and to succeeding generations. You must set yourselves us as examples of determination and hard work. Plan your time and use both your physical and mental powers purposefully and productively.
Haile Selassie
Feel the needs of others more than your own.
Haile Selassie
If you are open-minded and ready to learn, there are many things which you can learn not only from books and instructors but from the very life experience itself.
Haile Selassie
This world was not created piecemeal. Africa was born no later and no earlier than any other geographical area on this globe. Africans, no more and no less than other men, possess all human attributes, talents and deficiencies, virtues and faults.
Haile Selassie
Democracy, Republic: What do these words signify? What have they changed in the world? Have men become better, more loyal, kinder? Are the people happier? All goes on as before, as always. Illusions, illusions.
Haile Selassie
Education develops the intellect and the intellect distinguishes man from other creatures. It is education that enables man to harness nature and utilize her resources for the well-being and improvement of his life
Haile Selassie
Misguided people sometimes create misguided ideas. Some of my ancestors were Oromo. How can I colonize myself?
Haile Selassie
It is not only war that can stop war but men of goodwill, conscious of their mission can deal with such deadly enemy.

The true leader is a different sort he seeks effective activity which has a truly beneficient purpose. He inspires others to follow in his wake, and holding aloft the torch of wisdom, leads the way for society to realize its genuinely great aspirations.
Haile Selassie
