More from Fidel Castro
"All criticism is opposition. All opposition is counter-revolutionary."
"We are not afraid of anything. We are not afraid of anyone."
"We are fighting for the freedom of our people, for the dignity of our nation."
"The imperialists will never forgive us for making a socialist revolution 90 miles from their coast."
"The revolution is a permanent process."
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.
