More quotes by Che Guevara
We must do away with all newspapers. A revolution cannot be accomplished with freedom of the press.
Che Guevara
Direct aggression against Cuba would mean nuclear war. The Americans speak about such aggression as if they did not know or did not want to accept this fact. I have no doubt they would lose such a war.
Che Guevara
The interests of the IMF represent the big international interests that today seem to be established and concentrated in Wall Street.
Che Guevara
The fact of the attempted suicide by Augusto Martinez was explained in a concise and exact form by our government in a communique. There is absolutely nothing else to add.
Che Guevara
When forces of oppression come to maintain themselves in power against established law, peace is considered already broken.
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
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
I am not Christ or a philanthropist, old lady, I am all the contrary of a Christ.
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
The myth of the self-made man, has to be profoundly hypocritical: it is the self-serving demonstration that a lie is the truth
Che Guevara
To execute a man we don't need proof of his guilt. We only need proof that it's necessary to execute him. It's that simple.
Che Guevara
Americans are given the sole option of electing their jailer for four years and sometimes do him the honour of re-electing him.
Che Guevara
I would rather die standing up to live life on my knees.
Che Guevara
A smoke in times of rest is a great companion to the solitary soldier.
Che Guevara
The question is one of fighting the causes and not just being satisfied with getting rid of the effects.
Che Guevara
I know you are here to kill me. Shoot, coward, you are only going to kill a man.
Che Guevara
At the risk of seeming ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love. It is impossible to think of a genuine revolutionary lacking this quality.
Che Guevara
The socialist countries have the moral duty of liquidating their tacit complicity with the exploiting countries of the West.
Che Guevara
If you have the capacity to tremble with indignation every time that an injustice is committed in the world, then we are comrades.
Che Guevara
Our youth must always be free, discussing and exchanging ideas concerned with what is happening throughout the entire world.
