More quotes by Che Guevara
The blacks, those magnificent examples of the African race who have maintained their racial purity thanks to their lack of an affinity with bathing, have seen their territory invaded by a new kind of slave: the Portuguese.
Che Guevara
The state sometimes makes mistakes. When one of these mistakes occurs, one notes a decline in collective enthusiasm due to the effect of a quantitative diminution in each of the elements that make up the mass. Work is paralyzed until it is reduced to an insignificant level. It is time to make a correction.
Che Guevara
There is no other definition of socialism valid for us than that of the abolition of the exploitation of man by man.
Che Guevara
We must do away with all newspapers. A revolution cannot be accomplished with freedom of the press.
Che Guevara
It is an illusion to think that the matter can be resolved through words.
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 true revolutionary is guided by great feelings of love.
Che Guevara
Socialism is young and has made errors. Many times revolutionaries lack the knowledge and intellectual courage needed to meet the task of developing the new man with methods different from the conventional ones - and the conventional methods suffer from the influences of the society, which created them.
Che Guevara
Cruel leaders are replaced only to have new leaders turn cruel.
Che Guevara
I know you are here to kill me. Shoot, coward, you are only going to kill a man.
Che Guevara
I knew that when the great guiding spirit cleaves humanity into two antagonistic halves, I will be with the people.
Che Guevara
The question is one of fighting the causes and not just being satisfied with getting rid of the effects.
Che Guevara
A country that does not know how to read and write is easy to deceive.
Che Guevara
Each spilt drop of blood, in any country under whose flag one has not been born, is an experience passed on to those who survive, to be added later to the liberation struggle of his own country. And each nation liberated is a phase won in the battle for the liberation of one's own country.
Che Guevara
We feel that there is a necessity to strengthen unity and that it will be strengthened and the bloc, the monolithic bloc of socialist countries will be formed again.
Che Guevara
It is a revolution that came to power with its own army and on the ruins of the army of oppression.
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
Revolutions are not exportable: revolutions are created by oppressive conditions which Latin American countries exercise against their peoples.
Che Guevara
The ***** is indolent and lazy, and spends his money on frivolities, whereas the European is forward-looking, organized and intelligent.
Che Guevara
To accomplish much you must first lose everything.
