More from Fidel Castro
"We are fighting for the freedom of our people, for the dignity of our nation."
"We are revolutionary, not because we are interested in destroying, but because we are interested in building."
"The revolution is a dream come true."
"I have reached the conclusion that the only way to defend the revolution is to make many enemies."
"We do not believe in bourgeois democracy. We believe in the democracy of the people, of the workers, of the peasants."
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.
