More from Fidel Castro
"The revolution is a dictatorship of the exploited against the exploiters."
"I think that I will die with the boots on."
"I apologize if I have offended anyone with my words, but I will not apologize for my ideas."
"I never saw a contradiction between the ideas that gave me a sense of social justice and the ideas that came from the figure of Jesus Christ."
"We are revolutionary, not because we are interested in destroying, but because we are interested in building."
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.
