The Honorable Elijah Muhammad says that the black man in America, for the past 400 years, has been like a boy in the white man's house, begging the white man for a job, for food, clothing and shelter. And then after the white man provides him with all of these things, he turns around and get - has the nerve to get angry at the white man when the white man tries to control his life.

All you have to do is go back to slavery - days, and there were two types of slaves, the house slave and the field slave. The house slave was the one who believed in the master, who had confidence in the master and usually was very friendly with the master. And usually he was also used by the master to try and keep the other slaves pacified.

I don't think that anyone has been really created more by the white press than the civil right leaders.

The Negro is nothing but an ex-slave who is now trying to get himself integrated into the slave master's house.

Only a man who is ashamed of what he is will marry out of his race.

...the collective white man had acted like a devil in virtually every contact he had with the world's collective non-white man.

There was no racism; there was no problem [in Mecca].
