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.

More quotes by 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
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
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
I love books. If they are good books, I love them even more. But even if they are bad books, I still love them.
Hugo Chavez
Even socialist dictators have an interest in gorgeous supermodels.
Hugo Chavez
The grand destroyer of the world, and the greatest threat... is represented by U.S. imperialism.
Hugo Chavez
I painted. I wanted to be a painter. I sang.
Hugo Chavez
I am convinced that the path to a new, better and possible world is not capitalism, the path is socialism.
Hugo Chavez
When imperialism feels weak, it resorts to brute force.
Hugo Chavez
I hereby accuse the North American empire of being the biggest menace to our planet.
Hugo Chavez
I do wish that the IMF and the World Bank would disappear soon.
Hugo Chavez
I think the United States and the secretary of State should be concerned about the poverty in this country - people without health insurance. The United States should stop being the empire and be concerned about other countries. You've got to be more worried about your own people.
Hugo Chavez
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.
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.
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
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
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
I think developed countries - so-called developed countries - should reflect upon the way of living and the waste of energy.
Hugo Chavez
An infernal machine that produces every minute an impressive amount of poor, 26 million poor in 10 years are 2.6 million per year of new poor, this is the road, well, the road to hell.
Hugo Chavez
Mutual respect! That's what it takes to be friends.
