Quotes by Wole Soyinka.
1. The greatest threat to freedom is the absence of criticism.
3. My
father used to tell me stories before I fell asleep. When the children would
gather, at a certain point, I had a tendency to make up my own elementary
variations on stories I had heard, or to invent totally new ones.
4. We live
in a materialist word, and materialism appeals so strongly to humanity, no
matter where.
5. And I
believe that the best learning process of any kind is just to look at the work
of others.
6. For me,
justice is the prime condition of humanity.
7. Power is
domination, control, and therefore a very selective form of truth, which is a
lie.
8. I am
convinced that Nigeria would have been a more highly developed country without
the oil. I wished we’d never smelled the fumes of petroleum.
9. A war,
with its attendant human suffering, must, when that evil is unavoidable, be
made to fragment more than buildings: It must shatter the foundation of thought
and re-create. Only in this way does every individual share in the cataclysm
and understand the purpose of sacrifice.
