[edit]- Decolonization, therefore, implies the urgent need to thoroughly challenge the colonial situation. Its definition can, if we want to describe it accurately, be summed up in the well-known words "The last shall be first." Decolonization is verification of this.
- Frantz Fanon, The Wretched of the Earth (1961), p. 2
- In its bare reality, decolonization reeks of red-hot cannonballs and bloody knives. For the last can be the first only after a murderous and decisive confrontation between the two protagonists. This determination to have the last move up to the front, to have them clamber up (too quickly, say some) the famous echelons of an organized society, can only succeed by resorting to every means, including, of course, violence.
- Frantz Fanon, The Wretched of the Earth (1961), p. 3
- The colonized can see right away if decolonization is taking place or not: The minimum demand is that the last become the first.
- Frantz Fanon, The Wretched of the Earth (1961), p. 10
- οὕτως ἔσονται οἱ ἔσχατοι πρῶτοι καὶ οἱ πρῶτοι ἔσχατοι.
- The last shall be first, and the first last.
