“Diligent. He was clearly passionate about the revolution. More importantly, he was always on top of his political and personal obligations.” – X, Netherlands.
“Revolutionary humility. He taught us to humbly serve the people, not apart from them but alongside them, on the dinner table, in the picket lines. To shed that part of us, whether conscious or subconsciously seeking recognition, affirmation, to aspire towards the selfless offering of our time, energy, and whole lives to the cause.” – Netherlands.
