More quotes by Che Guevara
I am not Christ or a philanthropist, old lady, I am all the contrary of a Christ I fight for the things I believe in, with all the weapons at my disposal and try to leave the other man dead so that I don't get nailed to a cross or any other place.
Che Guevara
What we consider is that the Venezuelan government is not a leftist government, has nothing of a leftist government. It is an oppressor, an oppressive government, it is a murderer - he murders them - the peasant fights in the region of Falcon, for example, where there are military advisers of the U.S.
Che Guevara

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
It is not a matter of wishing success to the victim of aggression, but of sharing his fate one must accompany him to his death or to victory
Che Guevara
A country that does not know how to read and write is easy to deceive.
Che Guevara
If they attack, we shall fight to the end. If the rockets had remained, we would have used them all and directed them against the very heart of the United States, including New York, in our defense against aggression. But we haven't got them, so we shall fight with what we've got.
Che Guevara
The negro is indolent and a dreamer spending his meager wage on frivolity or drink the European has a tradition of work and saving, which has pursued him as far as this corner of America and drives him to advance himself, even independently of his own individual aspirations.
Che Guevara
The guerrilla band is not to be considered inferior to the army against which it fights simply because it is inferior in fire power.
Che Guevara
Live your life not celebrating victories, but overcoming defeats.
