Even socialist dictators have an interest in gorgeous supermodels.

I shook Obama's hand and I said, 'I want to be your friend.' My hand is still outstretched. I am not Obama's enemy, but it's difficult not see imperialism in Washington. Those who don't see it don't want to see it, like the ostrich.

We're not perfect, but we do have democracy.
Hugo Chavez
Image
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
Image
If the United States was mad enough to attack Iran or aggress Venezuela again the price of a barrel of oil could reach $150 or even $200.
Hugo Chavez
Image
When imperialism feels weak, it resorts to brute force.
Hugo Chavez

What is the U.S. government looking for? And the elite governing this country? They're looking for oil.

Capitalism is the way of the devil and exploitation. If you really want to look at things through the eyes of Jesus Christ -- who I think was the first socialist -- only socialism can really create a genuine society.
Hugo Chavez

Racism is very characteristic of imperialism and capitalism. Hate against me has a lot to do with racism. Because of my big mouth and curly hair. And I'm so proud to have this mouth and this hair, because it is African.

Image
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
Image
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.

Image
I do wish that the IMF and the World Bank would disappear soon.
Hugo Chavez
Image
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
Image
Uruguay is one of the biggest producers of software. We are breaking with the neoliberal model. We do not believe in free trade.
Hugo Chavez
Image
I love Jesus Christ. I am a Christian... I cry when I see injustice, children dying of hunger.
Hugo Chavez
Image
I am convinced that the path to a new, better and possible world is not capitalism, the path is socialism.

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
Image
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.
Hugo Chavez
Image
Israel criticizes Hitler a lot, so do we, but they've done something very similar, even worse, than what the Nazis did.

Don’t let yourselves be poisoned by those wandering Jews.
