More from Fidel Castro
"A revolution is not a bed of roses. A revolution is a struggle to the death between the future and the past."
"I am a product of the revolution."
"I never saw a contradiction between my ideas and the ideas of that man, Jesus Christ."
"They talk about the failure of socialism but where is the success of capitalism in Africa, Asia, and Latin America?"
"I have concluded – maybe a little late – that speeches must be short."
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.
