He Said That? 11/25/16

From Fidel Castro, who died today,  “I Won’t Be a Dictator,” interview with Ruth Lloyd (January 1959), printed in The Spokesman-Review (24 May 1959):

I am not a dictator, and I do not think I will become one. I will not maintain power with a machine gun.

That’s what they all say.
