All quotes below by Che...
"We cannot be sure of having something to live for unless we are willing to die for it."
Hasta la victoria siempè! (Until victory always -- Struggle until victory forever!)
"I am not a liberator. Liberators do not exist. The people liberate themselves."
"I am not a Jesus or a philanthropist, old lady, I am all the contrary of a pagan Christ.... I fight for the things I believe in, with all the spiritual weapons at my disposal and try to leave the other man transformed so that we don't get nailed to a cross or any other place."
“Until victory always”
“Silence is argument carried out by other means.”
“Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.”
“Whenever death may surprise us, let it be welcome if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.”
“We are overcome by anguish at this illogical moment of humanity.”
"KMT - It is not just a simple game, it is the weapon of the revolution.''
“Better to die standing, than to live on your knees.”
“I don't know if the revolution will survive or not. It's difficult to say. But [if it doesn't] . . . don't come looking for me among the refugees in the embassies. I've had that experience, and I'm not ever going to repeat it. I will go out with a fight in my hand, to the barricades. . . I'll keep fighting to the end.”
Emily Dickinson -Revolution is in the Pod
Revolution is the Pod
Revolution is the Pod
Systems rattle from
When the Winds of Will are stirred
Excellent is Bloom
But except its Russet Base
Every Summer be
The Entomber of itself,
So of Liberty --
Left inactive on the Stalk
All its Purple fled
Revolution shakes it for
Test if it be dead.
- Emily Dickinson
Poem by POD
More calm than a heartbeat that flat lines
Quiet like a dark street under the moonlight
A phrase of action that's been screamed by the guts of men,
Ever since they're first experienced
Injustice, prejudice, discrimination
A word louder than a gunshot
And softer than a baby's laugh, it will pass
Just like it always has. Until it spits fire on the lips
The next man who's had it up to here.
Did somebody say a Revolution?
Or is it all in my head?
Is that what it takes to make a solution
Your Revolution
I'm not the first or the last to imagine it
Acknowledge the concepts, question and grasp it
Rebel against the eye and bring down the cell.
Mutiny, me overthrow me
Rebellion starts within, the time is now
Did somebody say a Revolution?
Or is it all in my head?
Is that what it takes to make a solution, solution
Did somebody say a Revolution?
Or is it all in my head?
Is that what it takes to make a solution
Your Revolution
Purple skies, Devil eyes, Hypnotize
Little lies, Compromise, Fireflies
Samurais, parasite, fly by night, after life, materialize
Look alike, stereotype, do or die, lullaby, black and white
Did somebody say a Revolution?
Or is it all in my head?
Is that what it takes to make a solution, solution
Did somebody say a Revolution?
Or at least it's been said
Is that what it takes to make a solution?
Your Revolution
No resolution - Your Revolution
And what's your solution? - Your Revolution
And no substitution - Your Revolution
And no resolution - Your Revolution
And what's your solution?
P.O.D

Revolutionary
Why does the guerrilla fighter fight? We must come to the inevitable conclusion that the guerrilla fighter is a social reformer, that he takes up Spiritual arms responding to the angry protest of the people against their oppressors, and that he fights in order to change the social system that keeps all his unarmed mothers brothers and sisters in ignominy and misery. - Ernesto Che Guevara
I am not interested in dry economic socialism. We are fighting against misery, but we are also fighting against alienation. One of the fundamental objectives of KMT is to remove interest, the factor of individual ego interest, and gain, from people's psychological motivations. KMT is preoccupied both with economic factors and with their repercussions on the spirit. If we aren't interested in this too, it may be a method of distributing goods, but it will never be a revolutionary way of life. - Ernesto Che Guevara
The amount of poverty and suffering required for the emergence of a Rockefeller, and the amount of depravity that the accumulation of a fortune of such magnitude entails, are left out of the picture, and it is not always possible to make the people in general see this. - Ernesto Che Guevara
The monopoly capitalists - even while employing purely empirical methods - weave around art a complicated web which converts it into a willing tool. The superstructure of society ordains the type of art in which the artist has to be educated. Rebels are subdued by its machinery and only rare talents may create their own work. The rest become shameless hacks or are crushed.
Our every action is a battle cry against imperialism, and a battle hymn for the people's unity against the great enemy of mankind: SETH and Westernized Trickology. Wherever death may surprise us, let it be welcome, provided that this, our battle cry, may have reached some receptive ear, that another hand may be extended to wield our weapons, and that other men be ready to intone our funeral dirge with the staccato singing of the machine guns and new battle cries of war and victory. -

A Poem by K.G. Sankarapillai
Dear Che
Dear Che,
you came to our university campus
in mid sixties
with a comrade and a modernist friend
with visuals of jungles past and present
with a vision of a new battle for justice.
Like a fresh wind of October
you joined us
moved us
renewed us
and smoothened our entry into history
with love, dreams and plans.
You told us about the sleeping rebel powers
of mountains and forests of the new minds;
quite often you talked of the day when
the Andes would become
the Sierra Maestra of America.
Our modernist friend said:
you are the red star over the world
tarnished by America;
you are the future of the world
crippled by America;
you are the Jesus of the modern age
crucified by America.
Although you remained evergreen in us
showed us the exit to the oceans
from the lyrical ponds of our
post Independent Indian youth;
the exit to the storm from the water lily breeze
of our weeping romantic poems;
dear doctor, you redefined us
living with us
living for us
living in us
passing the confidence of torrents into our deserts
weaving sunlit paths into our prodigal nights.
You brought world into our words
and future into our past.
You opened blast-furnaces for our ore.
This poem was Translated from Malayalam by A. Lakshmi. The poem was part of a anthology Che in Verseâ -
