Until the control of the issue of currency and credit is restored to government and recognized as its most conspicuous and sacred responsibility, all talks of the sovereignty of Parliament and of democracy is idle and futile. ↗

The United Nations should come in and take over Liberia, not temporarily, but for life.

Well, I think one of the problems with 'Birds of Prey' was there were too many cooks in that kitchen. The studio, the producers, the network, all had very different visions of what that should be.

The most important thing I learned was that you control your crowd, not the other way around. ↗
