| The most potent weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the mind of the oppressed. |
| The power of a movement lies in the fact that it can indeed change the habits of people. This change is not the result of force but of dedication, of moral persuasion. |
| We do not want to be reminded that it is we, the indigenous people, who are poor and exploited in the land of our birth. |
| You are either alive and proud or you are dead, and when you are dead, you can't care anyway. |
