More quotes by Marcus Garvey
Let us not try to be the best or worst of others, but let us make the effort to be the best of ourselves.
Marcus Garvey
Look for me in the whirlwind or the storm, look for me all around you, for, with God's grace, I shall come and bring with me countless millions of black slaves who have died in America and the West Indies and the millions in Africa to aid you in the fight for Liberty, Freedom and Life.
Marcus Garvey
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
Lift up yourselves, men, take yourselves out of the mire and hitch your hopes to the very stars themselves. Let no man pull you down, let no man destroy your ambition, because man is but your companion, your equal man is your brother he is not your Lord, he is not your sovereign master.
Marcus Garvey
I regard the Klan, the Anglo-Saxon clubs and White American societies, as far as the Negro is concerned, as better friends of the race than all other groups of hypocritical whites put together.
Marcus Garvey
Chance has never yet satisfied the hope of a suffering people.
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.
Marcus Garvey
To see your enemy and know him is a part of the complete education of man.
Marcus Garvey
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
Look for me in the whirlwind or the storm.
Marcus Garvey
Go to work! Go to work in the morn of a new creation... until you have... reached the height of self-progress, and from that pinnacle bestow upon the world a civilization of your own.
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
Liberate the minds of men and ultimately you will liberate the bodies of men.
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
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
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
God Almighty created each and every one of use for a place in the world, and for the least of us to think that we were created only to be what we are and not what we can make ourselves, is to impute an improper motive to the Creator for creating is.
Marcus Garvey
Look to Africa, for there a king will be crowned.
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
Take the kinks out your mind, not your hair.
Marcus Garvey
