"You get your freedom by letting your..." - Quote by Malcolm X

“When 'I' replaced with 'We', even the illness becomes wellness.”

“First I might say that when a person, when a man separates from his wife, at the out start it's a physical separation but it's not a psychological separation. He still thinks of her in, in probably warm terms. And, but after the physical separation has taken, existed for a period of time, it becomes a psychological separation as well as physical. And he can then look at her more objectively. My split or separation from the Black Muslim movement at first was only a physical separation, but my heart was still there and it was impossible for me to, for me to look at it objectively.”

“America needs to understand Islam, because this is the one religion that erases from its society the race problem.”

“You must not let anyone define your limits because of where you come from. Your only limit is your soul.”

“With effort we can protect the foundation of our democracy, for which so many marched across this bridge, the right to vote.”

“When we shot "Cry Freedom," I wasn't even allowed in South Africa. They told me I could come but I wasn't going to leave. I had heavy death threats at that time. So we shot in Zimbabwe. In 1995, I had the privilege and the honor to meet Desmond Tutu and Nelson Mandela the same day: I had breakfast with Desmond Tutu and lunch with Nelson Mandela. Then I had the good fortune to have Mr. Mandela actually come to my house in California. There's been a tremendous amount of change.”

“When freedom is in jeopardy, non-co-operation may be a duty and prison may be a palace.”

“Hurrying and delaying are alike ways of trying to resist the present.”

“The only true resistance to this Government... [is] to cease to co-operate with it.”
