"The positive feature of guerrilla warfare is that each guerrilla
fighter is ready to die not just to defend an idea but to make that idea a
reality. That is the essence of the guerrilla struggle. The miracle is that a
small nucleus, the armed vanguard of a great popular movement that supports
them, can proceed to realize that idea, to establish a new society, to break
the old patterns of the past, to achieve, ultimately, the social justice for
which they fight."-Che Guevara
