Marcus Garvey

"If you have no confidence in self, you are twice defeated in the race of life."

"If you haven't confidence in self, you are twice defeated in the race of life. With confidence, you have won even before you have started."

"There is no force like success, and that is why the individual makes all effort to surround himself throughout life with the evidence of it; as of the individual, so should it be of the nation."

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

"Our success educationally, industrially and politically is based upon the protection of a nation founded by ourselves. And the nation can be nowhere else but in Africa."
