19 Quotes by Ivorian authors

Ivorian quotations carry the quick wit of Nouchi banter and the measured cadence of village elders. They braid generosity with shrewdness, urging patience without silencing ambition. Cocoa fields, lagoon breezes, and the bustle of Adjamé market surface as living metaphors, while drums and the storyteller’s grin keep counsel near. Themes of kinship, reconciliation, and work well done share space with satire that pricks vanity. Imagery that feeds the mouth and the spirit, and wisdom that walks, never hurries, beside you.
