"But despite his words, I now knew...I knew that when the great guiding spirit cleaves humanity into two antagonistic halves, I would be with the people." (Guevara 164)
"My sin is greater because I, more astute and with greater experience, call it what you like, will die knowing that my sacrifice stems only from an inflexibility symbolizing our rotten civilization, which is crumbling." (Guevara 164)
"I steel my body, ready to battle, and prepare myself to be a sacred space within the bestial howl of the triumphant proletariat can resound with new energy and new hope." (Guevara 165)
These quotations are all very high spirited and show a new side to Che. I think he has all the intentions in the world to save the people he loves and the country he lives for. I think he wants to better humanity and change the poverty stricken nation he has dealt with for so long. I think he shows how dedicated he is to fighting this battle and shows that he will die trying to save humanity. With this energy and spirit, anything is possible. The picture I chose is of two poverty stricken children. I chose this picture because it is those faces that drove Che to sacrifice himself for the people. They were his driving force and it is those faces that he was willing to die for. It is also those people who found hope in Che and they finally believed change was coming.
