More quotes by Che Guevara
A country that does not know how to read and write is easy to deceive.
Che Guevara
We must do away with all newspapers. A revolution cannot be accomplished with freedom of the press.
Che Guevara
The true revolutionary is guided by great feelings of love.
Che Guevara
Wrapped in a police blanket, I watched the rain and smoked one black cigarette after another.
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
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
I have sworn before a picture of the old and mourned comrade Stalin that I won’t rest until I see these capitalist octopuses annihilated.
Che Guevara
Our attitude is very clear. In effect there is the conflict, ideological conflict which we all know. We have stated our position in the sense of unity among socialist states - unity as a first measure.
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 fundamental principle is that no battle, combat, or skirmish is to be fought unless it will be won.
Che Guevara
One must endure without losing tenderness.
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 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
As long as imperialism exists it will, by definition, exert its domination over other countries. Today that domination is called neocolonialism.
Che Guevara
A new era will dawn in Africa, when the impoverished masses of a nation rise up to rescue their right to a decent life from the hands of the ruling oligarchies.
Che Guevara
...because it is the very nature of Imperialism to turn humans into beasts.
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
This is the Cuzco asking you to pull on your armor and, mounted on the ample back of a powerful horse, cleave a path through the defenseless flesh of a naked Indian flock whose human wall collapses and disappears beneath the four hooves of the galloping beast.
Che Guevara
What do we leave behind when we cross each frontier? Each moment seems split in two: melancholy for what was left behind and the excitement of entering a new land.
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.
