Dime quién soy by Julia Navarro

—Joven, no se impaciente, la vida de las personas tiene sentido si se explica en su contexto, de lo contrario es difícil que usted entienda nada.

“When an entire island is laughing at its colonial governor, it is safe to say that he has outlived his usefulness. It is impossible to subjugate people who are laughing at you.54”

“cómo tú me habías hecho ver el material del cual están forjadas las relaciones maritales. Un material cuya composición posee los ingredientes para destruirse a sí mismo. Siempre me resistí a creerte. Al final es un asunto de voluntad, solía decirte. Querer amar y ser fiel a ese objetivo.”
― Carla Guelfenbein, Contigo en la distancia

“Hay momentos así. Momentos que con el tiempo se transforman en fábulas compartidas. Los reconstituimos con el fin de acomodarlos a nuestra historia y transformarlos en algo que podemos atesorar.”
― Carla Guelfenbein, Contigo en la distancia

“When he spoke about US banks owning Puerto Ricans’ land, the US Navy controlling their borders, the US Congress writing their laws, and US companies paying them starvation wages in the sugar cane fields, everyone knew what he was talking about.”

“He joined because he was trapped like a caged animal. He joined because a man who gets up at 4 a.m. every morning, climbs a mountain in rain or fog or killing heat, and sweats all day with mosquitoes in his mouth does not need an empire telling him how to live, which flag to wave, what language to speak, and what heroes to worship.”
― Nelson Denis, War Against All Puerto Ricans: Revolution and Terror in America's Colony
