“As a matter of fact, only a great people, only a people aware of themselves, only a brave people can move forward and write the page in history that we are writing today. We shall never give up writing this page; we shall continue to write it. The Cubans will continue to write this page!”

"The final and definite stage of the war for national Independence that our people had been fighting since 1868 started on July 26. Thus for us, workers and farmers, for us, this commemoration in the city of Santiago de Cuba has aroused a deep emotion.”
“The 26th of July has become an historic date in the annals of our country's long and heroic struggle for its freedom. This great honour is certainly not what those of us who attempted to storm this fortress were seeking. No revolutionary fights with an eye on the day when the events stemming from his action will be commemorated with honour. Marti said that duty must be performed simply and naturally. The performance of a duty led us to this action without anyone thinking about the glories and honours of this struggle.”
“The great lesson of the 26 of July is the importance of the masses in the struggle, the importance of the masses in the revolutionary struggle, and the value of consistency and perseverance in the effort. Not to lose courage in the face of a setback, in the face of any hardship! And this was not only the lesson of the 26 of July, it has been the lesson learned throughout history: from Céspedes, Máximo Gómez and Agramonte, to Martí and Maceo”.
“And this was not only the lesson of the 26 of July, it has been the lesson learned throughout our history: from Céspedes, Máximo Gómez and Agramonte, to Martí and Maceo”.
“The struggle of our people for independence did not start that day, that day resumed the heroic struggle started in 1868 by Cespedes and carried forward by that exceptional man whose centenary was being celebrated that year, the man that was the mastermind of the attack on the Moncada: José Martí.”
“In only one thing are we still like those of 1953. We have the same faith in the future of the fatherland, the same faith in the qualities of our people, the same confidence in victory, the same happiness at being able to dream of all that which will become true tomorrow in addition to those dreams of yesterday which have already been fulfilled.”
