Frantz Fanon
For violence, like Achilles' lance, can heal the wounds it has inflicted.
Frantz Fanon
Every race will have disagreements amongst themselves, but we must put aside our differences, and work together for the advancement of that race Sandra Forsythe
Frantz Fanon
It is the white man who creates the Negro. But it is the negro who creates negritude.

Frantz Fanon
Violence is man re-creating himself.
Frantz Fanon
The misfortune of the man of color is having been enslaved. The misfortune and inhumanity of the white man are having killed man somewhere.

Zombies, believe me, are more terrifying than colonists.
Frantz Fanon
