More quotes by Marcus Garvey
Rise up Black Men, and take your stand. Reach up black men and women and pull all nature’s knowledge to you. Turn ye around and make a conquest of everything North and South, East and West. And then we you have wrought well, you will have merited God's blessing, you will become God's chosen people and naturally you'll become leaders of the world.
Marcus Garvey
The UNIA teaches our race self-help and self-reliance... in all those things that contribute to human happiness and well-being.
Marcus Garvey
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
Wake up Ethiopia! Wake up Africa! Let us work towards the one glorious end of a free, redeemed and mighty nation. Let Africa be a bright star among the constellation of nations.
Marcus Garvey
Chance has never yet satisfied the hope of a suffering people. Action, self-reliance, the vision of self and the future have been the only means by which the oppressed have seen and realized the light of their own freedom.
Marcus Garvey
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

Marcus Garvey
The whole world is run on bluff.
Marcus Garvey
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
It is by education that we become prepared for our duties and responsibilities in life. If one is badly educated he must naturally fail in the proper assumption and practice of his duties and responsibilities.
Marcus Garvey
Fascism is the cult of organised murder , invented by the arch-enemies of society . It tends to destroy civilization and revert man to his most barbarous state. Mussolini and Hitler might well be called the devils of an age, for they are playing hell with civilization.
Marcus Garvey
The Greatest Weapon Used Against the Negro is Disorganization.
Marcus Garvey
To have built up a new organization, which was not purely political, among Negroes in America was a wonderful feat, for the Negro politician does not allow any other kind of organization within his race to thrive.
Marcus Garvey
Black men of Carthage, Ethiopia, of Timbuktu and Alexandria gave the likes of civilization to this world
Marcus Garvey
Intelligence rules the world, ignorance carries the burden.
Marcus Garvey
The greatest possesion of man is character
Marcus Garvey
They subjugate first, if the weaker peoples will stand for it then exploit, and if they will not stand for SUBJUGATION nor EXPLOITATION, the other recourse is EXTERMINATION.
Marcus Garvey
The pen is mightier than the sword, but the tongue is mightier than them both put together.
Marcus Garvey
Africa for the Africans... at home and abroad!
Marcus Garvey
If you have no confidence in self, you are twice defeated in the race of life. With confidence, you have won even before you have started.
Marcus Garvey
