“Primary health care starts with people. Our common humanity compels us to respect people’s universal aspiration for a better life. It compels us to respect the resilience and ingenuity of the human spirit, and the great capacity of individuals and communities to solve their own problems.” (Margaret Chan, WHO Director-General)
“We will lead and the rest of the world will follow. That’s what they want, to be like us.” – George Bush
