The only persons who really changed history are those who changed men's thinking about themselves.

The goal of Martin Luther King is to get the Negroes to forgive the people the people who have brutalized them for four hundred years, by lulling them to sleep and making them forget what those whites have done to them, but the masses of black people today don't go for what Martin Luther King is putting down.

To me, the thing that is worse than death is betrayal. You see, I could conceive death, but I could not conceive betrayal.

Thoughtful white people know they are inferior to black people.

You can't have capitalism without racism.

The Negro neighborhood, which is inferior, is begging for a chance to - integrate itself into that which is - is superior, which is not going to happen. It's going to cause trouble.

White is an attitude.
