Francois Duvalier quotes:

Communism has established centres of infection... No area in the world is as vital to American security as the Caribbean...We need a massive injection of money to reset the country on its feet, and this injection can come only from our great, capable friend and neighbor the United States.

I know the Haitian people because I am the Haitian people.

Revolutions are not made with literature. Revolutions equal gunfire.

I accept the people's will. As a revolutionary, I have no right to disregard the will of the people.

God and the people are the source of all power. I have twice been given the power. I have taken it, and damn it, I will keep it forever.
