From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
| “ | I am in daily danger of giving my life for my country and duty, for I understand that duty and have the courage to carry it out-the duty of preventing the United States from spreading through the Antilles as Cuba gains its independence, and from overpowering with that additional strength our lands of America. I have lived in the monster and I know its entrails; my sling is David's." | ” |
José Martí writing about possible annexation by the United States before the Spanish-American war, 1895. (online).
