Cuban Poet Quotes

José Martí

Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda

The nation that buys commands, the nation that sells serves; it is necessary to balance trade in order to ensure freedom; the country that wants to die sells only to one country, and the country that wants to survive sells to more than one.

Don Carlos was one of those peaceful and indolent men who do not know how to do evil, nor to go to great lengths to do good.
