More quotes by Hugo Chavez
I am convinced that the path to a new, better and possible world is not capitalism, the path is socialism.
Hugo Chavez
The imperialist, genocidal, fascist attitude of the U.S. president has no limits. I think Hitler would be like a suckling baby next to George W. Bush.
Hugo Chavez
What would happen if we financed somebody in the U.S. to destabilize the government of George W. Bush? They would go to prison, certainly.
Hugo Chavez
That man, the king of vacations... the king of vacations in his ranch said nothing but, you have to flee, and didn't say how... that cowboy, the cowboy mentality.
Hugo Chavez
Mutual respect! That's what it takes to be friends.
Hugo Chavez
Mr. Bush is an illegitimate President. In Florida, his brother Jeb deleted many black voters from the electoral registers. So this President is the result of a fraud.
Hugo Chavez
I have always said, heard, that it would not be strange that there had been civilization on Mars, but maybe capitalism arrived there, imperialism arrived and finished off the planet.
Hugo Chavez
I wish we could begin a new period of normal relations with the government of the United States.
Hugo Chavez
Even socialist dictators have an interest in gorgeous supermodels.
Hugo Chavez
For us Catholics, John Paul II will be remembered as a traveling Pope ... and we should also remember he preached world peace. When the United States invaded Iraq, for example, John Paul II said it was an illegal and immoral act.
Hugo Chavez
We have to re-invent socialism. It can't be the kind of socialism that we saw in the Soviet Union, but it will emerge as we develop new systems that are built on cooperation, not competition.
Hugo Chavez
It doesn't smell of sulphur any more. No, it smells of something else. It smells of hope, and you have to have hope in your heart.
Hugo Chavez
Long live the Unity of Latin America.
Hugo Chavez
We must reduce all the emissions that are destroying the planet. However, that requires a change in lifestyle, a change in the economic model: We must go from capitalism to socialism.
Hugo Chavez
It makes one sad to see the sell-out of President Fox, really it makes one sad. How sad that the president of a people like the Mexicans lets himself become the puppy dog of the empire.
Hugo Chavez
If the climate were a bank, they would already have saved it.
Hugo Chavez
What they have implanted here, which is really a 'gringo' custom, is terrorism. They disguise children as witches and wizards, that is contrary to our culture.
Hugo Chavez
The United States is like Count Dracula who at six o'clock in the morning has not sucked [any necks].
Hugo Chavez
Israel has gone mad. It's attacking, doing the same thing to the Palestinian and Lebanese people that they have criticised - and with reason - the Holocaust . But this is a new Holocaust.
Hugo Chavez
Privatization is a neoliberal and imperialist plan. Health can't be privatized because it is a fundamental human right, nor can education, water, electricity and other public services. They can't be surrendered to private capital that denies the people from their rights.
