A knowledge of different literatures is the best way to free one's self from the tyranny of any of them  (Jose Marti Quotes) Men are products, expressions, reflections; they live to the extent that they coincide with their epoch, or to the extent that they differ markedly from it  (Jose Marti Quotes) The spirit of a government must be that of the country. The form of a government must come from the makeup of the country. Government is nothing but the balance of the natural elements of a country  (Jose Marti Quotes) Mankind is composed of two sorts of men - those who love and create, and those who hate and destroy  (Jose Marti Quotes) Barricades of ideas are worth more than barricades of stones. There is no prow that can cut through a cloudbank of ideas. A powerful idea, waved before the world at the proper time, can stop a squadron of iron clad ships, like the mystical flag of the Last judgement  (Jose Marti Quotes) Knowing is what counts. To know one's country and govern it with that knowledge is the only way to free it from tyranny  (Jose Marti Quotes) It was imperative to make common cause with the oppressed, in order to secure a new system opposed to the ambitions and governing habits of the oppressors  (Jose Marti Quotes) The general holds back his cavalry to a pace that suits his infantry, for if its infantry is left behind, the cavalry will be surrounded by the enemy  (Jose Marti Quotes) One must have faith in the best in men and distrust the worst. One must allow the best to be shown so that it reveals and prevails over the worst. Nations should have a pillory for whoever stirs up useless hate, and another for whoever fails to tell them the truth in time  (Jose Marti Quotes) My poems are like a dagger sprouting flowers from the hilt; My poetry is like a fountain sprinkling streams of coral water  (Jose Marti Quotes) My poems please the brave: My poems, short and sincere, have the force of steel which forges swords  (Jose Marti Quotes) I grow a white rose In July just as in January For the sincere friend who gives me his frank hand. And for the cruel man who pulls out of me the heart with which I live, I grow neither nettles nor thorns: I grow a white rose  (Jose Marti Quotes) Racist is a confusing word, and it should be clarified. Men have no special rights simply because they belong to one race or another. When you say men, you have already imbued them with all their rights  (Jose Marti Quotes) Everything that divides men, everything that specified, separates or pens them, is a sin against humanity  (Jose Marti Quotes) The vote is the most effective and merciful instrument that man has devised to manage his affairs  (Jose Marti Quotes) A child who does not think about what happens around him and is content with living without wondering whether he lives honestly is like a man who lives from a scoundrel's work and is on the road to being a scoundrel  (Jose Marti Quotes) A genuine man goes to the roots. To be a radical is no more than that: to go to the roots. He who does not see things in their depth should not call himself a radical  (Jose Marti Quotes) But love, like the sun that it is, sets afire and melts everything. What greed and privilege to build up over whole centuries the indignation of a pious spirit, with its natural following of oppressed souls, will cast down with a single shove  (Jose Marti Quotes) Culture, which makes talent shine, is not completely ours either, nor can we place it solely at our disposal. Rather, it belongs mainly to our country, which gave it to us, and to humanity, from which we receive it as a birthright  (Jose Marti Quotes) Every human being has within him an ideal man, just as every piece of marble contains in a rough state a statue as beautiful as the one that Praxiteles the Greek made of the god Apollo  (Jose Marti Quotes) Fortunately, there is a sane equilibrium in the character of nations, as there is in that of men  (Jose Marti Quotes) It is the duty of man to raise up man. One is guilty of all abjection that one does not help to relieve. Only those who spread treachery, fire, and death out of hatred for the prosperity of others are undeserving of pity  (Jose Marti Quotes) Liberty is the right of every man to be honest, to think and to speak without hypocrisy  (Jose Marti Quotes) Like bones to the human body, the axle to the wheel, the wing to the bird, and the air to the wing, so is liberty the essence of life. Whatever is done without it is imperfect  (Jose Marti Quotes) Like stones rolling down hills, fair ideas reach their objectives despite all obstacles and barriers. It may be possible to speed or hinder them, but impossible to stop them  (Jose Marti Quotes) Man is a living duty, a depository of powers that he must not leave in a brute state. Man is a wing  (Jose Marti Quotes) Man loves liberty, even if he does not know that he loves it. He is driven by it and flees from where it does not exist  (Jose Marti Quotes) People are made of hate and of love, and more of hate than love. But love, like the sun that it is, sets afire and melts everything  (Jose Marti Quotes) Talent is a gift that brings with it an obligation to serve the world, and not ourselves, for it is not of our making  (Jose Marti Quotes) There is happiness in duty, although it may not seem so. To fulfill one's duty elevates the soul to a state of constant sweetness. Love is the bond between men, the way to teach and the center of the world  (Jose Marti Quotes)
