A very short excerpt from the speech:
'...And there are other physically tantalising books published by Mbali Press and available in most of our libraries; for example, books by Teboho Letshaba, and chief Bolaji, and the general one, Interviews with effervescent writers… Truly the literary evolution continues on our shores, and we have to thank Mme Schimper's deep-seated vision for this.
Actually this occasion should prod us to ponder: what type of person am I? What good have I done to society, or the world at large? Am I leaving any legacy in this world? By any disparate criteria, Mrs. Schimper scores high resoundingly. And her vision and achievements will continue to be appreciated in the over-arching literary fraternity...'
