The people have to have the power: it belongs to the people.

I am the people, I'm not the pig. You got to make a distinction. And the people are going to have to attack the pigs. The people are going to have to stand up against the pigs. That's what the Panthers is doing, that's what the Panthers are doing all over the world.

We've got to face the fact that some people say you fight fire best with fire, but we say you put fire out best with water. We say you don't fight racism with racism. We're gonna fight racism with solidarity.

A lot of people don't understand the Black Panthers Party's relationship with white mother country radicals.

If you dare to struggle, you dare to win. If you dare not struggle, then damn it, you don't deserve to win.

If you dare to struggle, you dare to win.

You can kill a revolutionary but you can't kill revolution...you can jail a liberator but you can't jail liberation.

We're going to fight racism not with racism, but we're going to fight with solidarity. We say we're not going to fight capitalism with black capitalism, but we're going to fight it with socialism.

You can kill a revolutionary, but you cannot kill a revolution.

I don''t know if I like communism, and I don''t know if I like socialism. But I know that the Breakfast for Children Program feeds my kids. And if you put your hands on that Breakfast for Children Program . . .

We understood that politics is nothing but war without bloodshed and war is nothing but politics with bloodshed.

You're gonna have to keep on saying that - I am the proletariat, I am the people. I am not the pig. You've got to make a distinction.

In plain proletarian worker's language, it takes two to tango.

I believe I'm going to die doing the things I was born to do. I believe I'm going to die high off the people. I believe I'm going to die a revolutionary in the international revolutionary proletarian struggle.
