Marcus Garvey

"God and Nature first made us what we are, and then out of our own created genius we make ourselves what we want to be. Follow always that great law. Let the sky and God be our limit and Eternity our measurement."

"I have no desire to take all black people back to Africa there are blacks who are no good here and will likewise be no good there."

"God and Nature first made us what we are, and then out of our own created genius we make ourselves what we want to be. Follow always that great law. Let the sky and God be our limit and Eternity our measurement."

"A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots."

"Africa for the Africans... at home and abroad!"

"Chance has never yet satisfied the hope of a suffering people."
