Which phrase in this excerpt from a 1964 interview with malcolm x indicates that he is explicitly stating an opinion? "i think all of us should be critics of each other. when you can't stand criticism you can never grow. i don't think that it serves any purpose for the leaders of our people to waste their time fighting each other needlessly."

The correct phrase is "I don't think that it..." :)

  I believe that the phrase that indicates that Malcolm X is stating an opinion is given in two sentences, when he uses "I think..." and "I don´t think...".

 The fact that he select the word think shows that he is validating the argument on his own opinion and not using other authors or references to make a point.

  I hope that the answer and explanation are correct.

what is the question ?

in the sonnet 116 written by william shakespeare we can analyze the symbolism and say that he reuses the idea of love like a guiding star for the sailor.

reading through the poem we find out that in the line 7 there is a metaphor for the lover that is heading through the life events by love itself .
