Malcolm X

Anybody who rapes, and plunders, and enslaves, and steals, and drops hell bombs on people… anybody who does these things is nothing but a devil.

Malcolm X

Anything I do today, I regard as urgent.

Malcolm X

Anytime anyone is enslaved, or in any way deprived of his liberty, if that person is a human being, as far as I am concerned he is justified to resort to whatever methods necessary to bring about his liberty again.

Anytime there’s a fire in a negro community and it’s burning out of control, you send any one of them, send Whitney Young in to put it out.

Malcolm X

Anytime you tell a man to turn the other cheek or to be nonviolent in the face of a violent enemy, you’re making that man defenseless. You’re robbing him of his God-given right to defend himself.

Malcolm X

Armed with the knowledge of our past, we can with confidence charter a course for our future. Culture is an indispensable weapon in the freedom struggle. We must take hold of it and forge the future with the past.

Malcolm X

As bad as I was, as much trouble and worry as I caused my mother, I loved her.

Malcolm X

As I say, if we bring up religion we’ll have differences; we’ll have arguments; and we’ll never be able to get together.

Malcolm X

Because once the black man becomes the political master of his own community, it means that the politicians of that community will also be black, which also means that he then will be sending black representation or representatives not only to represent him at the local level and at the state level, but, but even at the federal level.

Malcolm X

Because the average negro organization, especially, can’t see the problem in its entirety. They can’t even see that the problem is so big that their own organization as such, by itself, can never come to a, can never come up with a solution.
