Additional quotes by José Martí
Por las mañanas
Mi pequeñuelo
Me despertaba
Con un gran beso.
Puesto a horcajadas
Sobre mi pecho,
Bridas forjaba
Con mis cabellos.
Ebrio él de gozo,
De gozo yo ebrio,
Me espoleaba
Mi caballero:
¡Qué suave espuela
Sus dos pies frescos!
¡Cómo reía
Mi jinetuelo!
Y yo besaba
Sus pies pequeños,
¡Dos pies que caben
En solo un beso!

The struggles waged by nations are weak only when they lack support in the hearts of their women. But when women are moved and lend help, when women, who are by nature calm and controlled, give encouragement and applause, when virtuous and knowledgeable women grace the endeavor with their sweet love, then it is invincible.
