More quotes by Fidel Castro
We have a theoretical concept of the Revolution which is a dictatorship of the exploited against the exploiters.
Fidel Castro
I don't think anyone has been slandered more than the Jews.
Fidel Castro
When I was a young boy, my father taught me that to be a good Catholic, I had to confess at church if I ever had impure thoughts about a girl. That very evening, I had to rush to confess my sin. And the next night, and the next. After a week, I decided religion wasn't for me.
Fidel Castro
I am not a communist and neither is the revolutionary movement.
Fidel Castro
Fellow workers and peasants, this is the socialist and democratic revolution of the working people, with the working people, and for the working people. And for this revolution of the working people, by the working people, and for the working people we are prepared to give our lives.
Fidel Castro
All criticism is opposition. All opposition is counter-revolutionary.
Fidel Castro
Why do some people have to go barefoot so that others can drive luxury cars? Why are some people able to live only 35 years in order that others can live 70 years? Why do some people have to be miserably poor in order that others can be extravagantly rich? I speak for all the children in the world who don't even have a piece of bread.
Fidel Castro
Hysterical? Neuractic? I am all that ain't more than juggernaut!
Fidel Castro
One of the greatest benefits of the revolution is that even our prostitutes are college graduates.
Fidel Castro
Cuba has the cleanest and most-educated prostitutes in the world.
Fidel Castro
If surviving assassination attempts were an Olympic event, I would win the gold medal.
Fidel Castro
I am someone who's been in politics for 43 years and I know what I'm doing and what I should do. Have no doubt that I know how to tell the truth and to do so elegantly.
Fidel Castro
You Americans keep saying that Cuba is ninety miles from the United States. I say that the United States is ninety miles from Cuba and for us, that is worse.
Fidel Castro
U.S. leaders should think that if they are aiding terrorist plans to eliminate Cuban leaders, they themselves will not be safe.
Fidel Castro
Nowhere in the world, in no act of genocide, in no war, are so many people killed per minute, per hour and per day as those who are killed by hunger and poverty on our planet.
Fidel Castro
Forgive me for using the term 'fat little brother'. It is not a criticism, rather a suggestion that he do some exercises and go on a diet, don't you think? I'm doing this for the gentleman's health.
Fidel Castro
Ideas do not need weapons.
Fidel Castro
I propose the immediate launching of a nuclear strike on the United States. The Cuban people are prepared to sacrifice themselves for the cause of the destruction of imperialism and the victory of world revolution.
Fidel Castro
There is nothing more agreeable than having a place where one can throw on the floor as many cigar butts as one pleases without the subconscious fear of a maid who is waiting like a sentinel to place an ashtray where the ashes are going to fall.
Fidel Castro
I find capitalism repugnant. It is filthy, it is gross, it is alienating... because it causes war, hypocrisy and competition.
