*QUOTES BY Al-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz, MALCOLM X*

"Don't be in a hurry to condemn because he doesn't do what you do or think
as you think or as fast. There was a time when you didn't know what you
know today."

"My alma mater was books, a good library... I could spend the rest of my
life reading, just satisfying my curiosity."
"I believe that there will ultimately be a clash between the oppressed and
those that do the oppressing. I believe that there will be a clash between
those who want freedom, justice and equality for everyone and those who
want to continue the systems of exploitation."

"It is a time for martyrs now, and if I am to be one, it will be for the
cause of brotherhood. That's the only thing that can save this country."
-- February 19, 1965 (2 days before he was murdered )

"Without education, you're not going anywhere in this world."

"When a person places the proper value on freedom, there is nothing under
the sun that he will not do to acquire that freedom. Whenever you hear a
man saying he wants freedom, but in the next breath he is going to tell you
what he won't do to get it, or what he doesn't believe in doing in order to
get it, he doesn't believe in freedom. A man who believes in freedom will
do anything under the sun to acquire . . . or preserve his freedom."
