Albert Memmi Quotes

The Colonialist's Existence Is So Closely Aligned With That Of The Colonized That He Will Never Be Able To Overcome The Argument Which States That Misfortune Is Good For Something. With All His Power He Must Disown The Colonized While Their Existence Is Indispensable To His Own. Having Chosen To Maintain The Colonial System, He Must Contribute More Vigor To Its Defense Than Would Have Been Needed To Dissolve It Completely. Having Become Aware Of The Unjust Relationship Which Ties Him To The Colonized, He Must Continually Attempt To Absolve Himself. He Never Forgets To Make A Public Show Of His Own Virtues, And Will Argue With Vehemence To Appear Heroic And Great. At The Same Time His Privileges Arise Just As Much From His Glory As From Degrading The Colonized.
