Ngokuqwashisa ngezimo nokuhlangenwe nakho kwabanye, kungaleso sikhathi kuphela lapho singenza khona intuthuko ebalulekile nehlala njalo emphakathini wethu.”

Futhi lapho izinqumo ezilinganayo zenziwa ezinkampanini nasezinhlanganweni, kubalulekile ukunikeza izinsiza ezifanele ukuze uqinisekise impumelelo eqhubekayo ngale kokubandakanyeka kwenhlangano yakho.

Sonke sinemibono yethu nokuchema okusekelwe lapho sivela khona nokuthi sizungezwe bani. Kodwa uma ufaka ukuhlukahluka kukho konke okwenzayo, ngokwakho noma ngokomsebenzi, sonke sithola izinzuzo.
