More quotes by Che Guevara
One has to grow hard but without ever losing tenderness.
Che Guevara
Those who kill their own children and discriminate daily against them because of the color of their skin those who let the murderers of blacks remain free, protecting them, and furthermore punishing the black population because they demand their legitimate rights as free men - how can those who do this consider themselves guardians of freedom?
Che Guevara
If we had to kneel in order to live in peace, [ U.S. government] will have to kill us before.
Che Guevara
Why does the guerrilla fighter fight? We must come to the inevitable conclusion that the guerrilla fighter is a social reformer, that he takes up arms responding to the angry protest of the people against their oppressors, and that he fights in order to change the social system that keeps all his unarmed brothers in ignominy and misery.
Che Guevara
Let's be realistic. Let's do the impossible!
Che Guevara
I am not a liberator. Liberators do not exist. The people liberate themselves.
Che Guevara

Che Guevara
The socialist countries have the moral duty of liquidating their tacit complicity with the exploiting countries of the West.
Che Guevara
If it is an element of liberation for Latin America, I believe that it should have demonstrated that. Until now, I have not been aware of any such demonstration. The IMF performs an entirely different function: precisely that of ensuring that capital based outside of Latin America controls all of Latin America.
Che Guevara
I knew that the moment the great governing spirit strikes the blow to divide all humanity into just two opposing factions, I would be on the side of the common people.
Che Guevara
I finally felt myself lifted definitively away on the winds of adventure toward worlds I envisaged would be stranger than they were, into situations I imagined would be much more normal than they turned out to be.
Che Guevara
To accomplish much you must first lose everything.
Che Guevara
I am not the representative of guerrilla in this hemisphere. I would say that the representative would be Fidel Castro which was the leader of our revolution and who had the most outstanding role in the direction of the revolutionary struggle and directs the strategy of the Cuban government.
Che Guevara
How can it be mutually beneficial to sell at world market prices the raw materials that cost the underdeveloped countries immeasurable sweat and suffering.
Che Guevara
A country that does not know how to read and write is easy to deceive.
Che Guevara
