More quotes by Malcolm X
I might say this, that the problem of the, the solution for the Afro-American is two-fold - long-range and short-range.
Malcolm X
When the snakes out in that field begin to realize that if one of their members get out of line, it's going to be detrimental to all of them, they'll keep that, perhaps they'll then take the necessary steps to keep their fellow snakes away from my chickens or away from my children if the responsibility is placed upon them.
Malcolm X
If Christianity had asserted itself in Germany, six million Jews would have lived.
Malcolm X
America's greatest crime against the black man was not slavery or lynching, but that he was taught to wear a mask of self-hate and self-doubt.
Malcolm X
Let's cool it, brothers.
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
Only the whites in the South aren't hypocritical about it. You don't find any more inter - there is just as much social intermixing in the South as there - between the races as there is in the North. Only they - in the South they let you know - where they stand, and in the North they take a hypocritical approach or attitude or reaction.
Malcolm X
The young whites, and blacks, too, are the only hope that America has, the rest of us have always been living in a lie.
Malcolm X
We were truly all the same (brothers) - because their belief in one God had removed the white from their minds, the white from their behavior, and the white from their attitude.
Malcolm X
New York white youth were killing victims that was a 'sociological' problem. But when black youth killed somebody, the power structure was looking to hang somebody.
Malcolm X
We don't think that we're begging for anything. We think we're demanding what is ours by right.
Malcolm X
In America you have the mouse now trying to sit down on the elephant, thinking that he's going somewhere. And it's - and it's absurd.
Malcolm X
Anytime you tell a man to turn the other cheek or to be nonviolent in the face of a violent enemy, you're making that man defenseless. You're robbing him of his God-given right to defend himself.
Malcolm X
To me, the thing that is worse than death is betrayal.
Malcolm X
Nonviolence is fine as long as it works.
Malcolm X
There seems in most countries to be either one extreme or the other. Truly a paradise could exist wherever material progress and spiritual values could be properly balanced.
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
History is not hatred.
Malcolm X
[People] earn extra money [in prison] selling contraband, dope, and things of that sort to the inmates, and so that really it's an exploiter.
Malcolm X
When the thing is finally sparked, the white man is not there - he's gone. The merchant is not there, the landlord is not there, the one they consider to be the enemy isn't there. So, they knock at his property. This is what makes them knock down the store windows and set fire to things, and things of that sort.
