More quotes by Malcolm X
If you don't stand for something you will fall for anything.
Malcolm X
Soon now, as the Negro awakens a little more and sees the vise that he's in, sees the bag that he's in, sees the real game that he's in, then the Negro's going to develop a new tactic.
Malcolm X
No black person married to a white person can speak for me!
Malcolm X
I go for Mao Tse-tung much more than, than Nehru because I think that Nehru brought his country up in a beggar's role.
Malcolm X
The most disrespected person in America is the black woman. The most unprotected person in America is the black woman. The most neglected person in America is the black woman.
Malcolm X
If the black man is allowed to separate and go into some land of his own where he can solve his own problems, there won't be any explosion, and the Negroes who want to stay with the white man, let them stay with the white man - but those who want to leave, let them go to The Honorable Elijah Muhammad.
Malcolm X
I had one warden tell me since I've been out, and I visited an inmate in prison right here in New York, Warden Fay up at Green Haven. I visited an inmate in prison and he told me that he didn't want anybody in there trying to spread this religion.
Malcolm X
If it's necessary to form a Black Nationalist army, we'll form a Black Nationalist army. It'll be ballot or the bullet. It'll be liberty or it'll be death.
Malcolm X
We cannot think of being acceptable to others until we have first proven acceptable to ourselves.
Malcolm X
Whenever I walk the street and see people ready to get with it, that's my reward.
Malcolm X
Armed with the knowledge of our past, we can with confidence charter a course for our future. Culture is an indispensable weapon in the freedom struggle. We must take hold of it and forge the future with the past.
Malcolm X
Whenever any group can vote in a bloc, and decide the outcome of elections, and it fails to do this, then that group is politically sick.
Malcolm X
You have, you can only answer it this way: by turning it around. Can the negro - who is the victim of the system - escape the collective stigma that is placed upon all Negroes in this country?
Malcolm X
I had blind faith in him. My faith in Elijah Muhammad was more blind and more uncompromising than any faith that any man has ever had for another man. And so I didn't try and see him as he actually was.
Malcolm X
I think that the best thing that a person can be is sincere.
Malcolm X
Once I was, yes. But now I have turned my direction away from anything that's racist.
Malcolm X
I see America through the eyes of the victim. I don’t see any American dream I see an American nightmare.
Malcolm X
I'm sorry to say that the subject I most disliked was mathematics. I have thought about it. I think the reason was that mathematics leaves no room for argument. If you made a mistake, that was all there was to it.
Malcolm X
I was with Essien Udom in Nigeria.
Malcolm X
Sometimes you have to pick the gun up to put the Gun down.
