Quotes

• “To die for the racists is lighter than a feather, but to die for the people is heavier than any mountain and deeper than any sea.”
• “You can kill my body, but you can't kill my soul. My soul will live forever!”
• “To us power is, first of all, the ability to define phenomena, and secondly the ability to make these phenomena act in a desired manner.”
• “I do not think life will change for the better without an assault on the establishment, which goes on exploiting the wretched of the earth. This belief lies at the heart of the concept of revolutionary suicide. Thus it is better to oppose the forces that would drive me to self-murder than to endure them. Although I risk the likelihood of death, there is at least the possibility, if not the probability, of changing intolerable conditions.”
• “Revolutionary suicide does not mean that I and my comrades have a death wish; it means just the opposite. We have such a strong desire to live with hope and human dignity that existence without them is impossible. When reactionary forces crush us, we must move against these forces, even at the risk of death.”
• “The first lesson a revolutionary must learn is that he is a doomed man. Unless he understands this, he does not grasp the essential meaning of his life.”
