Jacqueline Novogratz Quotes

Honour what is most beautiful about the past and build it into the promise of the future Picture Quote #1

May each of you live lives of immersion. They won’t necessarily be easy lives. But in the end, it is all that will sustain us Picture Quote #1

We are connected to each other not only as humans, but to every living thing on the planet Picture Quote #1

Our lives are so short. And our time on this planet is so precious. All we have is each other Picture Quote #1

Each of us can work to change a small portion of events. And it’s in the total of all those acts that the history of this generation will be written Picture Quote #1

It’s about all of us, and the kind of world that we, together, want to live in and share Picture Quote #1

Why do some people stop growing at age 30, just going from work to the couch and television, when others stay vibrant, curious, almost childlike into their nineties? Picture Quote #1

Poverty is not only about income levels, but for lack of freedom that comes from physical insecurity Picture Quote #1

I’ve heard it said that the most dangerous animal on the planet is the adolescent male Picture Quote #1

We have to remember that the girls and the women are most isolated and violated and victimized and made invisible in those very societies where our men and our boys feel disempowered, unable to provide Picture Quote #1

I’ve learned that there is no currency like trust and no catalyst like hope. There is nothing worse for building relationships than pandering, on one hand, and preaching, on the other.

Africa can stun you in an instant. It can throw floods and drought and disease at you, sometimes all at the same time. In the next moment, it will tease you with its magnificent beauty, so even if you don’t forget, you can find a way to forgive. Ultimately, it keeps you coming back for more Picture Quote #1

People need to believe that they can participate fully in the decisions that affect their lives and have a stake in the societies in which they live Picture Quote #1

What would the world look like if we asked ourselves the following more often; are our actions helping others find a way to feel more freer, more dignified and more beautiful? Picture Quote #1

Africans didn’t want saving, thank you very much, least of all not by me Picture Quote #1

The only way we really create change is to enter any situation with the humility to listen and to recognize the world as it is, and then the audacity to dream what it could be Picture Quote #1

Monsters will always exist. There’s one inside each of us. But an angel lives there, too. There is no more important agenda than figuring out how to slay one and nurture the other Picture Quote #1

Human beings tend not to spend money on health preventionally. We tend to spend it on top treatment Picture Quote #1

The poor also are willing to make, and do make, smart decisions, if you give them that opportunity Picture Quote #1

People have to understand that unless social enterprise is experimental, it will not succeed in making a difference Picture Quote #1

The only way to end poverty, to make it history, is to build viable systems on the ground that deliver critical and affordable goods and services to the poor, in ways that are financially sustainable and scaleable. If we do that, we really can make poverty history Picture Quote #1

I have seen that traditional approaches to charity and aid don’t solve problems of poverty. In fact, too often they create dependence Picture Quote #1

We often don’t realize what our action and our inaction do to people we think we will never see and never know Picture Quote #1
