“The people have learned that victory is in unity.  Let us not permit the unity of the people to fall apart.  Let us not permit extremism which attempts to dislodge the fundamental bases.  We have to find, and we will search for it, the language that will unite all revolutionaries because the enemies are too powerful and do not rest."

November 4, 1971
