More quotes by Evo Morales
Fortunately, in Bolivia, we have begun to liberate ourselves economically. If we do not accompany social and cultural liberation with economic liberalization, the country will continue to be subjugated.
Evo Morales
Globalization and the neoliberal economic model have already been rejected in Latin America it simply hasn't been a solution for our people. At the same time, Latin countries like Venezuela and Argentina are anti-imperialist and anti-globalization, and yet their economies are growing again.
Evo Morales
Politics in Bolivia must combine social consciousness with professional competency. In my administration, intellectuals from the upper class can be cabinet ministers or ambassadors, as can members of Indian ethnic groups.
Evo Morales
To talk only about national security, national defense, means to be selfish, ambitious. It is discrimination, isolation. It is just me. What do I care about others?
Evo Morales

Evo Morales
The 21st of December marks the end of the time and the beginning of no-time
Evo Morales
I'm just the democratic voice of Bolivia.

We nationalize hydrocarbons, so now the economy is improving and the fight against poverty is also improving in Bolivia.
Evo Morales
We stand for global security and so we take care of everyone's life.
Evo Morales
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
Bolivia is a majority indigenous nation, but that majority has always been excluded.
Evo Morales
This is a coca leaf. This is not cocaine. This represents the culture of indigenous people of the Andean region.
Evo Morales
The United States is using its war on drugs as an excuse to expand its control over Latin America.
Evo Morales
What unites Bolivia with Venezuela is the concept of the integration of South America. This is the old dream of a great fatherland, a dream that existed even before the Spanish conquest, and Simon Bolivar fought for it later on.
Evo Morales
Unfortunately, in this Obama Government, we have charges of drug trafficking and terrorism. For Evo, it's drug trafficking. For Hugo, it's terrorism. Evo Morales, drug trafficking. Hugo Chavez, terrorism.
Evo Morales
I learned that the political is above the legal, that's why when my advisors tell me, Evo, what you are doing is illegal, I say, if it is illegal, then do it legal, you have studied for that.
Evo Morales
