Marcus Garvey
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 history of a movement, the history of a nation, the history of a race is the guide-post of that movement's destiny, that nation's destiny, that race's destiny.

Ambition is the desire to go forward and improve one's condition. It is a burning flame that lights up the life of the individual and makes him see himself in another state. To be ambitious is to be great in mind and soul. To want that which is worth while and strive for it. To go on without looking back, reaching to that which gives satisfaction.
Marcus Garvey
Chance has never yet satisfied the hope of a suffering people.
Marcus Garvey
