"Never have we stolen the intelligences of other peoples. On the contrary; in Cuba we have trained tens of thousands of doctors and other top-level professionals, for free, in order to send them back to their own countries".
"The medical staff that is ready to go to any region to save lives, even at the risk of losing their own, is the best example of solidarity that human beings can offer, particularly if they are not moved by any material interest".
“[…] Our mission is to create a doctrine with a relation to human health, to demonstrate an example of what can be done in that field which is, of course, the most sensitive thing for any person in the world. Doctors have the lives and the health of the people in their hands.”
