The fact is, when men carry the same ideals in their hearts, nothing can isolate them - neither prison walls nor the sod of cemeteries. For a single memory, a single spirit, a single idea, a single conscience, a single dignity will sustain them all.

I began revolution with 82 men. If I had to do it again, I do it with 10 or 15 and absolute faith. It does not matter how small you are if you have faith and plan of action.

Fidel Castro

Men Faith You

They talk about the failure of socialism but where is the success of capitalism in Africa, Asia and Latin America?

Fidel Castro

A revolution is a struggle to the death between the future and the past.

Fidel Castro

Men do not shape destiny, Destiny produces the man for the hour.

The equal right of all citizens to health, education, work, food, security, culture, science, and wellbeing - that is, the same rights we proclaimed when we began our struggle, in addition to those which emerge from our dreams of justice and equality for all inhabitants of our world - is what I wish for all.

The revolution is a dictatorship of the exploited against the exploiters.

I find capitalism repugnant. It is filthy, it is gross, it is alienating... because it causes war, hypocrisy and competition.

There is not Communism or Marxism, but representative democracy and social justice in a well-planned economy.

Venezuela, given its extraordinary educational, cultural, and social developments, and its vast energy and natural resources, is called on to become a revolutionary model for the world.

Capitalism is using its money; we socialists throw it away.

I am a Marxist Leninist and I will be one until the last day of my life.

Fidel Castro

I think that a man should not live beyond the age when he begins to deteriorate, when the flame that lighted the brightest moment of his life has weakened.

Fidel Castro

I became a Communist by studying capitalist political economy, and when I had some understanding of that problem, it actually seemed to me so absurd, so irrational, so inhuman, that I simply began to elaborate on my own formulas for production and distribution.

Fidel Castro

Religious faith, like political belief, should be based on reasoning, on the development of thought and feelings. The two things are inseparable.

Fidel Castro

Christ didn't choose the rich to preach the doctrine; he choose 12 poor ignorant workers - that is, he chose the proletariat of the times.

Fidel Castro

North Americans don't understand... that our country is not just Cuba; our country is also humanity.

The people of Egypt are an intelligent people with a glorious history who left their mark on civilization.

Someday, the capitalist system will disappear in the United States, because no social class system has been eternal. One day, class societies will disappear.

Fidel Castro

Nothing in the world is irreversible, not even capitalism.

Defending peace is the duty of all.

I would not vote for the mayor. It's not just because he didn't invite me to dinner, but because on my way into town from the airport there were such enormous potholes.

Fidel Castro

I can assure you that my first and foremost interest is my country.

Fidel Castro

I believe Karl Marx could have subscribed to the Sermon on the Mount.

Fidel Castro

My idea, as the whole world knows, is that the capitalist system now doesn't work either for the United States or the world, driving it from crisis to crisis, which are each time more serious.

Fidel Castro

None of us is designed for the role we must assume in a revolutionary society, although Cubans had the privilege of Jose Marti's example.

Fidel Castro

I don't think anyone has been slandered more than the Jews.

Fidel Castro

There is nothing that compares to the Holocaust.

Fidel Castro

There is plenty of building material and more than enough manpower to make a decent home for every Cuban. But if we continue to wait for the golden calf, a thousand years will have gone by, and the problem will remain the same.

Fidel Castro

More than 820 million people in the world suffer from hunger; and 790 million of them live in the Third World.

Fidel Castro

The world has not yet reached the point which, in my view, is an essential condition for the survival of our human species: access by all the peoples to the material resources of this planet.

Fidel Castro

It doesn't sound too good to say I am the son of a landowner, so let us rather say I am the grandson of exploited Galician peasants.

The Arab population of Palestine are victims of genocidal actions; their lands are confiscated or deprived of water supplies in the semi-desert areas, and their homes are destroyed with heavy wrecking equipment.

Fidel Castro

During the second half of the twentieth century, I had the privilege of living through years of intensive erudition, and I realized that Canadians, located in the northernmost region of this hemisphere, were always respectful towards our country.

Fidel Castro

The Soviet Union, the socialist camp, the People's Republic of China, and North Korea helped us resist, with essential supplies and weapons, the implacable blockade of the United States, the most powerful empire ever to exist.

Fidel Castro

The people respect and believe in men who fulfill their duty.

Fidel Castro

None of us has any personal interest above the interests of the country. Our country is more important than our careers.

Fidel Castro

The human being is a strange mixture of blind instinct, on one hand, and conscience, on the other.

Fidel Castro

Cynicism is something which has become symbolic of imperial policy.
