Quote of the Day

"In the end, history has a clear direction and it is not the way of those who arrest women and babies for singing in the streets. It is not the way of those who starve and silence their own people, who cling to power by the threat of force."
— U.S. President Barack Obama, speaking about Robert Mugabe
