Additional quotes by Julia de Burgos

And still they ask me to trade songs for words,/they can't imagine my pulse without poems

we shall dance the dance of life/to the rhythm of a fire of light/that will burst from the sun.

It is no longer a song./It is a battlecry./Battlecry of living strength,/of men who struggle,/of minds that free themselves,/of free arms/ready not to fall./The masses roar./They think./They are.

It is in you (the hispanic people of america) where my song sings, where my voice/began in mountainous screams a free scream - Julia de Burgos
