Additional quotes by Julia de Burgos

Altamira del mundo por donde los instantes/ruedan como latidos del mundo de mañana.

Let our life be completely present./Let it search for the future only in the soul./Let it rehearse truths. Let it feel in idea./Let it always extend cutting distances.

Hacia el alma es muy largo el camino que andar

At your chest Martí, I knock among tears/in this hour of man and of war,/so you may arrive, at peace, awake,/over the greatest pain of America. - Julia de Burgos
