The solutions put forth by imperialism are the quintessence of simplicity...When they speak of the problems of population and birth, they are in no way moved by concepts related to the interests of the family or of society...Just when science and technology are making incredible advances in all fields, they resort to technology to suppress revolutions and ask the help of science to prevent population growth. In short, the peoples are not to make revolutions, and women are not to give birth. This sums up the philosophy of imperialism.
Fidel CastroSovereignty is not negotiated in exchange for anything; to maintain the achievements of the revolution does not depend on a foreign power.
Fidel CastroWhy do some people have to go barefoot so that others can drive luxury cars? Why are some people able to live only 35 years in order that others can live 70 years? Why do some people have to be miserably poor in order that others can be extravagantly rich? I speak for all the children in the world who don't even have a piece of bread.
Fidel CastroCapitalism has neither the capacity, nor the morality, nor the ethics to solve the problems of poverty.
Fidel CastroGood athletes do not know what tiredness is. They do not know what discouragement is. Good athletes only know what victory is.
