📄 Je suis soldat, la guerre fut toujours mon partage, et tant que l’acharnement, la barbarie et l’avarice de nos ennemis les porteront sur nos rivages, je justifierai votre choix ; et combattant à votre tête, je prouverai que le titre de votre général sera toujours honorable pour moi.

"In the euphoria that followed the departure of Haiti’s hated dictator, Jean-Claude Duvalier, most Haitian and foreign analysts treated the regimes of the two Duvaliers, father and son, as a historical nightmare created by the malevolent minds of the leaders and their supporters.
