It takes four months to ship food aid and 40 percent of the cost is in the shipping. People cannot eat shipping costs. We have had people die when there are surpluses in the markets.

Development does not take place in Washington, DC. Development takes place in the rest of the world.

You don’t produce development through aid; you produce it through private investment which creates jobs.

Many, many large cities have old, crumbling infrastructure that have got to be dealt with in the nearest future, or they're going to be in serious trouble. They'll be unlivable if they don't do something.

If you put too much aid too quickly into weak institutions, you have corruption and failure.

Well, in terms of the American taxpayers’ contribution, I do, this is it for the U.S...But the American part of this will be the $1.7 billion.

No one in USAID embodied the spirit of compassion and brotherhood that underpins our efforts more than Larry Foley.

We couldn't spend $91 billion if we wanted to.
