More quotes by Evo Morales

Evo Morales
Sooner or later we will reach a point where communitarian socialism turns global because capitalism is not even the solution to capitalism itself.
Evo Morales
With Bolivia, I had hope that a discriminated African-American, with another discriminated indigenous peasant leader, I hoped that together we could work for justice and equality. Not only for just two countries, Bolivia and USA, but for equality around the world.
Evo Morales
I am not accustomed to protocol.

Evo Morales
Globalization creates economic policies where the transnationals lord over us, and the result is misery and unemployment.

In Bolivia, the middle class, intellectuals and the self-employed are proud of their Indian roots. Unfortunately, some oligarchic groups continue to treat us as being inferior.
Evo Morales
I am Catholic but I want to say something to the Catholics. Thank you for some of the bishops who live in rural areas, and are still Catholic. These bishops of the Catholic churches still pray for the poor, and pray for their president who works for the poor, while the leaders of the Catholic Church only defend oligarchy.
Evo Morales
I have a lot of hope for the Constituent Assembly.
Evo Morales
Capitalism is the worst enemy of humanity.
Evo Morales
[In Bolivia] We want to overcome our historical problems with Chile. The sea has divided us and the sea must bring us back together again.
Evo Morales

Evo Morales
I'm just the democratic voice of Bolivia.
