"The utopia of which the philosophers were dreaming in the last century is about to become reality." "We are now in the process of construction of a socialist society." "A society that will be characterized by the cancellation of the exploitation of man by other men, by a distribution the most fair as possible of the profits of the nation," "and a production constantly increasing, which will be returned to our people." "And together we will build new life." "Together, cause we're together, we here in Cuba, the Soviet Union or in the Republic China over there ," "and in Vietnam, fighting in the South East Asia." "Lately aggression of the imperialist increased." "But why we do not think about their reasons?" "On August 30, 1962" "Che meets in the Soviet Union with Nikita Khrushchev in his country house in the Crimea." "The meeting has a secret paragraph:" "the signing of a military agreement started by Raul Castro, a month earlier." "A treaty on military cooperation for the defence of the territory of the island, in case of aggression." "This, includes the installation in Cuba with nuclear missiles." "The world is on the brink of a nuclear war."

"Finally, the tension decreases when Khrushchev, behind Cuba, offers to Kennedy to withdraw the missiles from the island, if the U.S. withdrew the its from Turkey." "The worldwide conflict had been avoided, but the tension would continue for many years." "From the beginning, Che supports the movements revolutionaries in Latin America."

"In this way starts for the first time in Latin America, the development of an economic theory based on concrete practices." "Mechanically we copied the experiences of our brother countries, and this was a mistake" "Not the most serious, but however, an error, that has blocked the development and contributed dangerously to a phenomenon that we have to fight with the force of the socialist revolution:" "the "bureaucracy"." "We believe that the root bureaucracy lies in what we have identified as a lack of "internal engine"" "of some officials." "I mean, he lacks to connect to his feelings, what is the problem that has to be dealt with, a certain fear of the consequences of his behaviour, that forces them to hide behind a sheet, always they have one in front of them."

"Bestiality , which does not have its borders established, nor belongs to any given country." "Beasts were the hordes of Hitler, like animals are the U.S. today, like animals are the Belgian paratroopers, like beasts were the French imperialists in Algeria."

"The true revolutionary is guided by great feelings of love." "It is impossible to think of a genuine revolutionary lacking this quality." "Perhaps it is one of the great dramas of the leader that he or she must combine a passionate spirit with a cold intelligence and make painful decisions without flinching." "Our revolutionary vanguard must idealize this love of the people, of the most sacred causes, and make it one and indivisible." "In these circumstances one must have a large dose of humanity, a large dose of a sense of justice and truth in order to avoid dogmatic extremes."

"On April 1, direction Africa." "Not as Che, but as a citizen named Ramon Benitez." "With him are travelling, divided into groups, and following different routes and at different times, about 130 Cubans." "Che defines this moment as the "The story of a failure."" "Its mission is to deliver weapons and providing support and military instructions to the Lumumbisti rebel groups who in Congo are fighting against the government troops supported by white mercenaries." "Months of uncertainty and anxiety, of diseases, of attempts to train troops which for tribal reasons, and internal struggle and the total lack of the preparation for combat, were never able to be well organized." "During these months he also received one of the most saddest news of his life:" "the death of his mother." "He told me how one should say these things to a strong man." "I do not show pain or concern, and I tried not to show not the one, nor the other." "It was so simple!" "They called him, saying that it was very serious." ""Serious so she can die?" He asked." ""Yes. "" "Waiting was the only thing to do." "With the news official, he would decide if he had the right to show his sadness." "It looked like he didn't wanted to." "The morning sun was bright after the rain." "There was nothing strange." "They said that on May 20th it will stop raining until October." "They say." "But they say many things that are not true." "Nature follows the calendar?" "I did not care if nature follows the calendar or not." "In general, I could say that I didn't care at all." "Not this forced inactivity, nor this idiot war without goals," "Well, not without goals."

"I wanted to smoke, and I pulled out the pipe." "As always, I had it in my pocket." "In the paths of smoke, you can bridge any distance."

"She gave me the bandage, in case I would be wounded in the arm." "It would be a tissue of love." "The difficult thing would be not to use it if they would slice me up." "In reality , there was a simple solution." "What they put me on the head to hold my jaw and I bring it to the grave." "Loyalty to the death." "If I would be lost in the mountains, or been caught by the others," "I would not have had the bandage of love." "They would let me rot in the grass, or expose me." "and maybe I would be in Life, with a desperate or painful look, fixed, the instant supreme fear." "Because we have fear, why deny it?" "Through the smoke, I retraced my old ways and reached the more intimate corners of my fears, always related to the death." "I only brought 2 small memories with me to the battle." "The bandage of my wife, and the door keys with the stone of my mother." "Do not cry because you should not, or because you can not?" "I really do not know." "I just know that I have a physical need that appears to my mother and her head on her lean back, and she says "mi viejo", dry and full of tenderness." "Shortly after the start, rumours start to circulate, initiated by the press and international intelligence." "They say he is fighting in Santo Domingo, in Vietnam, that he is hospitalized in a psychiatric clinic, that he discussed with Fidel and that he is exiled." "6 months later, in October 1965" "Fidel makes public the farewell letter that left Che, before leaving." "Havana." "Year of agriculture." "Fidel, at this moment I remember many things, when you asked me to join you, of all the tensions due to the preparations." "One day they came by and asked, who should be to be notified in case of death and the possibility that that really could happen, did hit us all." "I feel I have accomplished my duty that bound me to the Cuban revolution in its territory, and I say good-bye to you, to my comrades, to the people, and that is mine already." "Formally renounce my assignments to the Party leadership of my place as a minister, my rank of commander, and my Cuban citizenship." "No legal law binds me to Cuba" "Only ties of another type, that you can not break as nominations." "Other lands of this world require the help of my modest efforts."

"He wrote: "Until victory." "Forever, Homeland or Death. "" "Until later, when found a copy of the letter, realizes that there is no point, and that its" "Capital "S" can be understood as lower case." "However, since then the sentence "Until victory always"" "would be associated to his image and his struggle." "Towards the end of November 1965 the political and military situation become unstable." "The Cuban group must retreat." "The idea to clear out and leave, as we had come, grieved me deeply." "I did not dare to ask for the maximum sacrifice in the decisive moment." "In reality the idea of staying was in my brains until the last hours of the night, and perhaps I never made the decision, if not that I was one fugitive more ." "On the bridge of the longboat that leaves the Congolese jungle behind," "Che undergoes a new physical transformation." "During the last few hours in the Congo," "I felt alone, like never before."

"In his last years, Stalin ordered the development of a guidebook that was accessible to the masses and processed all the subjects of the economy, to the present day." "When we started a critical study of the guidebook, we met such a quantity of concepts we totally disagreed with, that we decided to start this undertaking with as much scientific rigor possible, and with utmost honesty." "Essential quality, the latter, because the self-controlled study of the Marxist theory, and recent events, place us in the critical position towards the Soviet Union."
