“Let us imitate the example of those who were our predecessors.  Let us do what Bolívar, San Martín, Artigas, O'Higgins, Sucre, Juárez, Morazán and Martí would have done in like circumstances, so that Our America takes an honourable place in a world where we all have a right to live.”

“If our land did not have sufficient honor and glory, as it has conquered during such a long time, this honor and glory of having fought […] against that mighty  empire would suffice, and the fact that our Revolution is still here and it will continue to be, upright and invincible.”
