More from Fidel Castro
"We are not afraid of the United States. We are not afraid of anyone."
"The imperialists will never forgive us for making a socialist revolution 90 miles from their coast."
"All criticism is opposition. All opposition is counter-revolutionary."
"We are not politicians. We made our revolution to get the politicians out."
"The enemies of the revolution are like the flies: they are always there, but they cannot stop the revolution."
About Fidel Castro (1926-2016)
Cuban revolutionary who overthrew Batista in 1959 and led Cuba's communist state for 49 years through 11 US presidents. Closely associated with Che Guevara (his revolutionary partner) and Hugo Chávez (Latin American successor in Venezuela). For an intellectual contrast, see Ronald Reagan, Cold War US president — Reagan's hardline anti-communism and economic-warfare strategy made Cuba a test case for the entire late-Cold-War US foreign policy — the institutional power Castro's island state spent 49 years resisting.
