More quotes by Malcolm X
I remember one night at Muzdalifa with nothing but the sky overhead I lay awake amid sleeping Muslim brothers and I learned that pilgrims from every land--every color, and class, and rank high officials and the beggar alike--all snored in the same language.
Malcolm X
[My half-sister] Ella and I always were much closer as basic types we're dominant people, and [my other half-sister] Mary has always been mild and quiet, almost shy.
Malcolm X
The religion of Islam actually restores one's human feelings, human rights, human incentives, human, his talent.
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
There has to be something wrong when a man or a woman leaves his own people and marries somebody of another kind.
Malcolm X
Our objective is complete freedom, justice and equality by any means necessary.
Malcolm X
How could there be any difference between The Messenger and me? I am his slave, his servant, his son. He is the leader, the only spokesman for the Black Muslims.
Malcolm X
The White man pays Reverend Martin Luther King so that Martin Luther King can keep the Negro defenseless.
Malcolm X
The law of nature gives a man the right to defend himself when he's attacked. And God's law itself gives a man the right to defend himself when he's attacked.
Malcolm X
They came up with a civil rights bill in 1964, supposedly to solve our problem, and after the bill was signed, three civil rights workers were murdered in cold blood. And the FBI head, Hoover, admits that they know who did it, they've known ever since it happened, and they've done nothing about it. Civil rights bill down the drain.
Malcolm X
The black people of America have been victims of violence at the hands of the white men for four hundred years, and following the ignorant Negro preachers, we have thought that it was godlike to turn the other cheek to the brute that was brutalizing us.
Malcolm X
The number one thing that has to be done, [black men] has to be retaught, be given - he has to be reeducated and made to know that he's a man, like anyone else, and then he can stand on his own two feet, like others have done.
Malcolm X
Stumbling isn't falling.
Malcolm X
You don't integrate with a sinking ship.
Malcolm X
Well, the white race in America is the same way. As individuals it is impossible for them to escape the collective crime committed against the Negroes in this country, collectively.
Malcolm X
You spend so much time barking up the civil-rights tree, you don't even know there's a human-rights tree on the same floor.
Malcolm X
I think that Abraham Lincoln probably did more to trick negroes than any other man in history.
Malcolm X
Culture is an indispensable weapon in the freedom struggle.
Malcolm X
When the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, the United States struck back. She didn't go and bomb - she bombed any part of Japan. She dropped the bomb on Hiroshima. Those people in Hiroshima probably hadn't even, some of them most of them hadn't even killed anybody.
Malcolm X
Give us some separate territory in this country where our people can go and do something for ourselves. And provide us with everything that we need to keep that new territory going, until we are self-sufficient.
Malcolm X
