"Traditional guardians, in whose memory the text values are preserved, are the (only) carriers of tradition, but unfortunately they have not long to live. The immense oral cultural heritage must be saved, and must not be allowed to die with the death of the traditional guardians. In Africa, when an old person dies, it is a library that burns.
- Amadou Hampâté
