Education is the passport to the future, for
tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for
it today.
Malcolm X
Power , Media, Control
The media's the most powerful entity on
earth. They have the power to make the
innocent guilty and to make the guilty
innocent, and that's power. Because they
control the minds of the masses.
Malcolm X
Respect , Cemetery, Law
Be peaceful, be courteous, obey the law,
respect everyone; but if someone puts his
hand on you, send him to the cemetery.
Malcolm X
Today , Slavery, Name
The real names of our people were
destroyed during slavery. The last name of
my forefathers was taken from them when
they were brought to America and made
slaves, and then the name of the slave
master was given, which we refuse, we
reject that name today and refuse it. I
never acknowledge it whatsoever.
Malcolm X
Racism , Racial , Conscious
The American Negro never can be blamed
for his racial animosities - he is only
reacting to 400 years of the conscious
racism of the American whites.
Malcolm X
Time , Men , Treat
I believe in the brotherhood of man, all
men, but I don't believe in brotherhood with
anybody who doesn't want brotherhood
with me. I believe in treating people right,
but I'm not going to waste my time trying
to treat somebody right who doesn't know
how to return the treatment.
Malcolm X
Equality , Freedom, Justice
Nobody can give you freedom. Nobody can
give you equality or justice or anything. If
you're a man, you take it.
Malcolm X
Violence , Black, Problem
I am for violence if non-violence means we
continue postponing a solution to the
American black man's problem just to
avoid violence.
Malcolm X
Truth , Oppressed, Side
Truth is on the side of the oppressed.
Malcolm X
Freedom, Peace , Unless
You can't separate peace from freedom
because no one can be at peace unless he
has his freedom.
Malcolm X
Freedom, Fight
You don't have to be a man to fight for
freedom. All you have to do is to be an
intelligent human being.
Malcolm X
Attitude , Religion , Society
America needs to understand Islam,
because this is the one religion that erases
from its society the race problem.
Throughout my travels in the Muslim world,
I have met, talked to, even eaten with
people who in America would have been
considered 'white,' but the 'white' attitude
had been removed from their minds by the
religion of Islam.
Malcolm X
Work , Bullets, Ballots
If ballots won't work, bullets will.
Malcolm X
History , Memory , Animals
History is a people's memory, and without
a memory, man is demoted to the lower
animals.
Malcolm X
Disguise , Democrat
What is a Dixiecrat? A Democrat. A
Dixiecrat is nothing but a Democrat in
disguise.
Malcolm X
Black , White , Existence
The Honorable Elijah Muhammad says that
we should be separate, all right, but in this
separate state or separate existence, the
black man should be given the opportunity
and the incentive to do for himself what
the white man has done for himself.
Malcolm X
Descent , African, Central
When we say Afro American, we include
everyone in the Western Hemisphere of
African descent. South America is America.
Central America is America. South America
has many people in it of African descent.
Malcolm X
Home , Sad, Boy
Being an old farm boy myself, chickens
coming home to roost never did make me
sad; they've always made me glad.
Malcolm X
Capitalist
You show me a capitalist, and I'll show you
a bloodsucker.
Malcolm X
Black , Teach , Nobody
Nobody should teach the black man in
America to turn the other cheek, unless
someone is teaching the white man in
America to turn the other cheek.
Malcolm X
Devil , Name, White
For me, my 'X' replaced the white slave
master name of 'Little' which some blue-
eyed devil named Little had imposed on my
parental forebears.
Malcolm X
