More quotes by Jose Marti

Jose Marti
Only those who hate the Negro see hatred in the Negro.

Jose Marti
Nature has placed the need to see justice done in some souls, and the need to flout and affront it in others.
Jose Marti

Jose Marti
Books console us, calm us, prepare us, enrich us and redeem us.
Jose Marti
Just as he who gives his life to serve a great idea is admirable, he who avails himself of a great idea to serve his personal hopes of glory and power is abominable, even if he too risks his life.
Jose Marti
The brave forget. It is those who fought less bravely, or those who fought without justice and live in fear of their victory, who forget the least.
