Quotes

  • My search consisted in trying to understand and fight against the repulsion that gave me all that blood spilled... The Rwandans committed genocide, but they are also Rwandans who stopped it, and not the international community. It is essential to keep this very present: if they have been capable of the worst, they can also be of the best.
  • I have privileged the word of the victims, I have not tried to be fair with the executioners and the victims. The repentant murderer is elusive, he recants, his words do not come in the same way. I have questioned the witnesses in our mother tongue, the contact is more direct, the expression is both more fluid, freer and more revealing, the speaker cannot hide behind the mediation of a foreign language, bad faith is seen in the eyes.
