More quotes by Evo Morales
We can not have equilibrium in this world with the current inequality and destruction of Mother Earth. Capitalism is what is causing this problem and it needs to end.
Evo Morales
The new republic should be based on diversity, respect and equal rights for all.
Evo Morales
Bolivia is a majority indigenous nation, but that majority has always been excluded.
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
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
This is a coca leaf. This is not cocaine. This represents the culture of indigenous people of the Andean region.
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
Chavez's oil is unimportant for Bolivia... We are not dependent on Venezuela. We complement each other. Venezuela shares its wealth with other countries, but that doesn't make us subordinate.
Evo Morales
Sooner or later, we will have to recognise that the Earth has rights, too, to live without pollution. What mankind must know is that human beings cannot live without Mother Earth, but the planet can live without humans.
Evo Morales
We nationalize hydrocarbons, so now the economy is improving and the fight against poverty is also improving in Bolivia.
Evo Morales
For me, being leftist means fighting against injustice and inequality but, most of all, we want to live well.
Evo Morales
The Bolivian government has promised to guarantee autonomy in the framework of unity, legality, and with the goal of equalizing the different regions of Bolivia. It's right there in the constitution.
Evo Morales
I am sure of the fact that Fidel and Chávez are commanders of the forces of freedom in America, to liberate America and the world.
Evo Morales
All of Africa's resources should be declared resources of the state and managed by the nation. Our experience in Bolivia shows that when you take control of natural resources for the people of the town and village, major world change is possible.
Evo Morales
The United States is using its war on drugs as an excuse to expand its control over Latin America.
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 never wore a tie voluntarily, even though I was forced to wear one for photos when I was young and for official events at school. I used to wrap my tie in a newspaper, and whenever the teacher checked I would quickly put it on again. I'm not used to it. Most Bolivians don't wear ties.
Evo Morales
I'm just the democratic voice of Bolivia.
Evo Morales
The fight against capitalism has many aspects, particularly the distinctive economic models that concentrate the capital in few hands.
Evo Morales
Why communitarian socialism? Now not only do we have the pursuit of happiness for man, as a government, as a program or as our principles. But as well to live in harmony with Mother Earth.
