“We do not have time to wait for the enlightenment of our neighbors so that we can work together toward the development of Asia. It is better for us to leave the ranks of Asian nations and cast our lot with civilized nations of the West… We should deal with them exactly as Westerners do”. –Fukuzawa Yukichi

“For whoever stands by a just cause and fights for the freedom and liberation of his land from the invaders, the settlers, and the colonialists cannot possibly be called terrorist, otherwise the American people in their struggle for liberation from the British colonialists would have been terrorists; the European resistance against the Nazis would be terrorism, the struggle of the Asian, African, and Latin American people would also be terrorism…” –Yasser Arafat

Zulfikar Ali Bhutto

“Tin-pot dictators have ravaged Asia, Latin America, and Africa. In the aftermath, they have done more to promote communism than the works of Marx and Engels, Lenin, and Mao. They are the worst tyrants of the post-colonial period. They have destroyed time-honored institutions and treated their people like animals”. –Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
