Michel Martelly Quotations

It's time for Haitians to have access to health care. It's time to open our borders to the Haitian diaspora, open our markets to the world. It's time to open our country to potential investors.

When I was campaigning, I told the people if nothing happens under my mandate it will still be a positive thing because my mandate will be used as a rupture between the past and the future.

I believe my past is my strength.

Any MP has to have a proper family life, they have to have support of their partner.

I don't want to force the peacekeeping nations to feel like I'm pushing them out.

The State should have made sure the money given to the NGOs was used according to a global plan for Haiti; not doing whatever they want. They should be supervised and have to report and make sure the money is being used properly. They are here, but we are seeing no results.

Everything in Haiti right now is a priority.

When you put more than a million kids in school, you take a plane today and go to Haiti, you cannot see the results. You will see the results in 30 years when you see a different type of Haitian.

I don't even want to be president!

I remain close to my people. I keep singing with them.
