Sarkozy speechwriter

Henri Guaino is President Nicolas Sarkozy's speechwriter  

"The African peasant only knows the eternal renewal of time, rhythmed by the endless repetition of the same gestures and the same words. ...In this imaginary world where everything starts over and over again, there is no place for human adventure or for the idea of progress."

Henri Guiano, Dakar, Juillet 2006
