Image
The man who is not able to develop and use his mind is bound to be the slave of the other man who uses his mind
Marcus Garvey
Image
If I die in Atlanta my work shall then only begin, but I shall live, in the physical or spiritual to see the day of Africa’s glory.
Marcus Garvey
Image
History teaches us no race, no people, no nation has ever been freed through cowardice, through cringing, through bowing and scraping, but all that has been achieved to the glory of mankind, to the glory and honour of races and nations was through the manly determination and effort of those who lead and those who are led.
Marcus Garvey
Image
Africa with 400 million Black People can do it. If you cannot do it, if you are not prepared to do it then you will DIE. You race of cowards, you race of imbeciles, you race of good for-nothings, if you cannot do what other men have done, what other nations have done, what other races have done, THEN YOU HAD BETTER DIE.
Marcus Garvey
Image
She makes one happy, then miserable. You are to her kind, then unkind. Constant yet inconstant. Thus we have WOMAN. No real man can do without her.
Marcus Garvey
Image
Always try to associate with people from whom you can learn something. All the knowledge that you want is in the world, and all you have to do is go and seek it.
Marcus Garvey
Image
Slavery is a condition imposed upon individuals or races not sufficiently able to protect or defend themselves, and so long as a race or people expose themselves to the danger of being weak, no one can tell when they will be reduced to slavery.
Marcus Garvey
Image
You may call me a Klansman if you will, but, potentially, every white man is a Klansman, as far as the Negro in competition with whites socially, economically and politically is concerned, and there is no use lying.
Marcus Garvey
Image
They said that the Negro had no initiative that he was not a business man, but a laborer that he had not the brain to engineer a corporation, to own and run ships that he had no knowledge of navigation, therefore the proposition was impossible. Oh! ye of little faith. The Eternal has happened.
Marcus Garvey
Image
Great principles, great ideals know no nationality.
Marcus Garvey
Image
The whole world is run on bluff.
Marcus Garvey
Image
I read Up From Slavery and then my dream - if I may so call it - of being a race leader dawned.
Marcus Garvey
Image
There shall be no solution to this race problem until you, yourselves, strike the blow for liberty.
Marcus Garvey
Image
There is nothing in the world common to man, that man cannot do.
Marcus Garvey
Image
The value of knowledge is to use it. It is not humanly possible that a person can retain all knowledge of the world, but if a person knows how to search for all the knowledge of the world, he will find it when he wants it.
Marcus Garvey
Image
Intelligence rules the world, ignorance carries the burden.
Marcus Garvey
Image
Chance has never yet satisfied the hope of a suffering people.
Marcus Garvey
Image
I trust that you will so live today as to realize that you are masters of your own destiny, masters of your fate if there is anything you want in this world, it is for you to strike out with confidence and faith in self and reach for it.
Marcus Garvey
Image
Every man has a right to his own opinion. Every race has a right to its own action therefore let no man persuade you against your will, let no other race influence you against your own.
Marcus Garvey

The Greatest Weapon Used Against the Negro is Disorganization.
