Quotes
“As the owners of heaven forbade chocolate to mortals, so the owners of earth forbade it to commoners.”
p. 7 “I don't believe in charity. I believe in solidarity. Charity is so vertical. It goes from the top to the bottom. Solidarity is horizontal. It respects the other person. I have a lot to learn from other people.”
p. 146 “The division of labor among nations is that some specialize in winning and others in losing.”
Open Veins of Latin America, first page. “The dominant culture of the world teaches us that The Other is a threat, that our fellow human beings are a danger.”
as interviewed by Jonah Raskin, "Saying More with Less," Monthly Review, vo. 61,
