We are not terrorists. We're not criminals, we're not motivated by money, we're not motivated by greed. Nor are we simply nice kids gone wrong. We're deeply committed to a different kind of society and a different world. I think that is something very hard to understand for a lot of people.

Susan Rosenberg

I had a second chance. I know how incredible that is.

Susan Rosenberg

I've done everything I know in my heart on every level to take responsibility for what I think I have to. I'm not going to take responsibility for something the government thinks that I should because they think I should.

Susan Rosenberg

These chains are not going to stop me.

Susan Rosenberg

The war against the Black Liberation movement by the FBI/U.S. government was most influential for me in seeing the necessity for armed self-defense.

Susan Rosenberg

The U.S. government does not recognize the existence of political prisoners in our country. The identity of political prisoners is concealed and, consequently, their right to justice is denied.

Susan Rosenberg

Political prisoners are important to support because we are in prison for explicitly social/political/progressive goals. Our lack of freedom does affect how free you are; If we can be violated, so can you.

Susan Rosenberg

We are innocent. We are not criminals or terrorists. We are revolutionary guerillas and have been captured in the course of building a resistance to this government.

Susan Rosenberg

I continue to feel it was solidarity in the prison that made living in prison a different kind of community, and I began a life of service.

Susan Rosenberg

We are not terrorists. We're not criminals, we're not motivated by money, we're not motivated by greed. Nor are we simply nice kids gone wrong. We're deeply committed to a different kind of society and a different world. I think that is something very hard to understand for a lot of people.

Susan Rosenberg

The use of violence by individuals... is not a position that I support or would ever want to be in again.

Susan Rosenberg

I really believe our society has this propensity to punish.

Susan Rosenberg

At the time it seemed like there was a loosening of culture, there was a counterculture, there was a radicalization. I think we totally misread what was really going on in the world, that somehow a small group of people could mobilize a larger group of people.

Susan Rosenberg

I ran... I didn't trust the government. I was really afraid. I believe now that that was the fatal mistake of my life.

Susan Rosenberg

I supported the right of oppressed people to armed struggle. That didn't mean I did it.

Susan Rosenberg

I spent 11 years in isolation units, solitary confinement... in the hardest places for women.

Susan Rosenberg

We're caught, but we're not defeated. Long live the armed struggle!

Susan Rosenberg

The criminal activities I was involved in, I think that they were wrong and that they were dangerous.

Susan Rosenberg

It was an extreme time, in a certain sense... I was totally and profoundly influenced by the revolutionary movements of the '60s and '70s.

Susan Rosenberg

I have a political view that is certainly progressive and radical in a certain sense.

Susan Rosenberg

I took responsibility for the illegal actions, the potential for violence in my past actions, which I regret.
