Congo Quotes

(with reference to climbing volcanos while filming Congo (1995)).. I smoke two packs of Marlboros a day, which doesn`t go well with volcanos

I would hate to see operations in the Congo held hostage to Sierra Leone but I really think that`s the way it`s got to be. At one point we`ve got to decide to get it right and we`ve got to be professional.

However, I think, first of all, that what`s happening in Sierra Leone is going to have the great influence on those governments who will be asked to provide forces to the Congo. Second, of course, the Security Council has no professional military advice organized in any way.

I think the Congo force is in danger of not being enacted if we don`t clean up the act in Sierra Leone and indeed in all peace-keeping of the future.

There is a need to take advantage of the change that has taken place in the Congo, however tragic that has been in its coming.
