Youth must refrain from ungrateful questioning of governmental mandates. Instead they must dedicate themselves to study, work and military service. The very spirit of rebellion is reprehensible.

More quotes by Che Guevara
I am not a liberator. Liberators do not exist. The people liberate themselves.
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
I now know, by an almost fatalistic conformity with the facts, that my destiny is to travel.
Che Guevara
I am not Christ or a philanthropist, old lady, I am all the contrary of a Christ.
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

Che Guevara
A country that does not know how to read and write is easy to deceive.
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
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
The problem of peaceful transition to socialism, we do not discuss it as a theoretical question. But in America it is very difficult, and it is nearly impossible. That is why specifically in America we say that the road to the liberation of peoples, which will be the road of socialism will go through bullets in almost all countries.
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
One must endure without losing tenderness.
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
One does not necessarily have to wait for a revolutionary situation: it can be created.
Che Guevara
The U.S. is the great enemy of mankind! Against those hyenas there is no option but extermination! If the nuclear missiles had remained (in Cuba) we would have fired them against the heart of the U.S. including New York City!
Che Guevara
To accomplish much you must first lose everything.
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.
