"I also know - and this won't alter the course of history or the your personal view of me - that you will die with a clenched fist and a tense jaw, the epitome of hatred and struggle, because you are not a symbol (some inanimate example) but a genuine member of society to be destroyed; the spirit of the beehive speaks through your mouth and motivates your actions." pg 164
"I saw his teeth and the cheeky g
rin with which he foretold history, I felt his handshake and, like a distant murmur, his formal goodbye."pg 164"howling like one possessed, will assault the barricades or the trenches, will take my bloodstained weapon ans, consumes with fury, slaughter any enemy who falls into my hands." 164-165
I steel my body, ready to do battle, and prepare myself to be a sacred space within which the bestial howl of the triumphant proletariat can resound with new energy and new hope." 165
I think that Che has realized his purpose in life is to help others even if it means he has to risk himself in order to do it. It also seems that Che thinks that many people are at fault and that they will lose their lives in the name of the revolution. Che decided that he would always be on the peoples side and will take anyones lives who stand in his /the peoples way. I think that the last quote shows how he is willing to fight in order to have something new and better than now ( "new energy and new hope")
