Quote

I'm not trying to put our women on a pedestal that they don't deserve to be on. No man is a man without a woman: It's a woman that helps the man to be a man.

We cannot escape what the prophets of God did not escape. If we bear it patiently and remain strong and united, Allah (God) says in the Qur'an that He loves those who are patient and steadfast under trial. We want to be those whom Allah (God) loves.

Comandante Fidel Castro loves Cuba! But his love for humanity, if you'll pardon the expression, trumped his love for Cuba: He was universal he was an internationalist, and he put that spirit in the hearts and minds of the Cuban people through the Cuban Revolution.

Anarchy may await America, due to the daily injustices suffered by the people.

A woman will test you to see if you are what you say you are. Any woman that you fall in love with: She loves you too, but she's going to try you that's her nature. She has to know that she can depend on you she has to know that you will stand up for her. She has to know that you will back up the children that she brings in the world for us.

If we don't make earnest moves toward real solutions, then each day we move one day closer to revolution and anarchy in this country. This is the sad, and yet potentially joyous, state of America.

Our going to Washington [The Million Man March] was not to petition government, but to petition our God and Creator, that we may regain His favor and come into a position of power with Him that would allow us to correct our own condition.

Rituals don't make you righteous, it's uprightness: living up to moral principles and ethical principles, and submitting to universal law established by God.

Qaddafi is hated because he is the leader of a small country that is rich, but he uses his money to finance liberation struggles.

Image
Too many of us live on the horizontal, vain level of life: We want to acquire more and more things we want the material blessings of life and we are neglecting the elevated state of existence! And that's why God said of Abraham he was neither a Christian nor a Jew, he was a Muslim: he was an upright man.

I was talking about [Donald] Trump and certain things he was saying, that he wanted to go into Iraq and just take the oil. I said he sounded like the Corleone Family from The Godfather, you know, Let's just get it all while we got the muscle.

But when I reintroduced the Nation of Islam, and began to host meetings in cities and thousands and thousands of people come out.

There is no one right now in my judgment that can unite the Black electorate in such a way to present our agenda to a nominee to have them forthrightly address our concerns.

Our [black people's] path is clear: We refuse to be inferior. We want to be exactly what Allah (God) has desired for us to be and we can't be that in their [white people's] house. We either have to take over their house or go and build a house of our own.

We, the Black people of America, were chosen by Allah: Not to be special in the sense that we are better than others, but chosen because of the uniqueness of our position inside of America, and 460 years under slavery, neo-slavery, and injustice, to carry a message to the whole of humanity.

Hillary, you're a strong woman, you're an intelligent woman - you're not a good woman. But if you want to do good, let the Black man go, and stop deceiving them, that you are really their friend. If you were their friend, why did you kill Muammar Gadhafi?

I don't think that Saddam Hussein is deliberately starving his own people. I would think that a man who gets 99 percent of the people to vote for him in an election and the people love him so much, how would they love a man that is starving them?

When we live our lives not for vanity, but for the sake of God and the betterment of humanity, that's what gives us immortality.

Fidel Castro is loved down into the children. The Revolution won't die!

Fidel Castro gave it all to make his nation serviceable to all who desire real change. That's why I love Fidel Castro, and that's why he will never die.
