“Whenever death may surprise us, let it be welcome if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.”
Che Guevara“Surprisingly, I came closer to really knowing myself, not because I feared death, because we were always aware of it, but rather because I was always challenging myself about what had led me there and about how strong my commitment really was.”
Aleida March, Remembering Che: My Life with Che Guevara“Individuals start to see themselves reflected in their work and to understand their full status as human beings through the object created, through the work accomplished. Work no longer entails surrendering a part of one's being in the form of labor power sold, which no longer belongs to the individual, but becomes an expression of oneself, a contribution to the common life in which one is reflected, the fulfillment of one's social duty.”
Ernesto Che Guevara, Che Guevara Reader: Writings on Politics & Revolution“We must come to the inevitable conclusion that the guerrilla is a social reformer, who takes up arms responding to the angry protests of the people against their oppressors, and who fights to change the social system that keeps all his unarmed brothers in ignominy and poverty.”
Ernesto Che Guevara, Che Guevara Reader: Writings on Politics & Revolution“All night, after the exhausting games of canasta, we would look over the immense sea, full of white-flecked and green reflections, the two of us leaning side by side on the railing, each of us far away, flying in his own aircraft to the stratospheric regions of his own dreams. There we understood that our vocation, our true vocation, was to move for eternity along the roads and seas of the world. Always curious, looking into everything that came before our eyes, sniffing out each corner but only ever faintly--not setting down roots in any land or staying long enough to see the substratum of things the outer limits would suffice.”
Ernesto Che Guevara, The Motorcycle Diaries: Notes on a Latin American Journey“I now know, by an almost fatalistic conformity with the facts, that my destiny is to travel...”
Ernesto Che Guevara, The Motorcycle Diaries: Notes on a Latin American Journey“Remember that the revolution is what is important, and each one of us, alone, is worth nothing.”
Che Guevara“The only passion that guides me is for the truth... I look at everything from this point of view.”
Che Guevara“I had a project for my life which involved 10 years of wandering, then some years of medical studies and, if any time was left, the great adventure of physics.”
Che Guevara“I have a wish. It as a fear as well - that in my end will be my beginning.”
Che Guevara“Whenever death may surprise us, let it be welcome if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.”
