Quotes by Jon Lee Anderson  (?)
Quotes are added by the ŷ community and are not verified by ŷ.

“Charles Darwin, who had witnessed the
atrocities perpetrated against Argentina’s native
Indians by Juan Manuel de Rosas, had predicted
that “the country will be in the hands of white
Gaucho savages instead of copper-coloured Indians.
The former being a little superior in education,
as they are inferior in every moral virtue.”
Jon Lee anderson, Che Guevara: A Revolutionary Life

“There are different versions, but according to legend, Che’s last words, when Terán came through the door to shoot him, were: “I know you’ve come to kill me. Shoot, coward, you are only going to kill a man.”
John Lee Anderson, Che Guevara: A Revolutionary Life

“To die with dignity does not require company”
