I will continue to blow the trumpet for democracy in the state of Antigua and Barbuda.At the end of my life, I would only want to be remembered as that drop of water that bore a hole in the stone, not as a great policeman nor a great community activist nor a great politician.I continue to drip on the big stone of corruption in Antigua and Barbuda, nepotism, bigotry, and prejudice, and, the most dangerous stone, silence.I deny myself to put Antigua first. I ask what I can do for my country, not what my country can do for me.
