The first lesson a revolutionary must learn is that he is a doomed man.

You can jail a Revolutionary, but you can't jail the Revolution.

Malcolm X was the first political person in this country that I really identified with. If he had lived and not been purged, I probably would have joined the Muslims.

The first book I ever really read was Plato's 'Republic,' and then I had to go over that five times or something.

My mother and my father have been married 50 years, and he's just started to understand that something's wrong with the system. He accepted the whole thing, you see. Yet this industrious kind of engagement didn't bring him the success, according to American terms, that he wanted. I was probably affected by this very much. In fact, I know I was.

The revolution has always been in the hands of the young. The young always inherit the revolution.
