“I don’t advocate violence; but if a man steps on my toes, I’ll step on his.”

I don’t even call it violence when it’s in self defense; I call it intelligence.

And just because you have colleges and universities doesn’t mean you have education.

If someone puts their hands on you make sure they never put their hands on anybody else again.

I believe in human beings, and that all human beings should be respected as such, regardless of their color.

Truth is on the side of the oppressed.

In all our deeds, the proper value and respect for time determines success or failure.

Sometimes you have to pick the gun up to put the Gun down.

Nobody can give you freedom. Nobody can give you equality or justice or anything. If you’re a man, you take it.

Reform is for people who have government connections, revolution is for the people!

Ignorance of each other is what has made unity impossible in the past.
