More from Fidel Castro
"The greatest glory of the revolution is not to have defeated imperialism, but to have created a new man."
"There is no more ridiculous or absurd idea than to believe that any man can be replaced."
"We are not going to give up our dreams. We are not going to give up our hopes."
"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."
"I am not looking for anything I can be given. I am looking for something I can achieve."
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.
