"Lo mejor es no asombrarse de nada y probar todas las copas". -Diego a David en Fresa y Chocolate
The best is not to be shocked by anything, and to sip from every cup. -Diego to David in Strawberry and Chocolate

"Patria es Humanidad". -José Martí / Our Homeland is Humanity.

"Yo vengo de todas partes
y hacia todas partes voy,
arte soy entre las artes,
y en los montes, monte soy". -José Martí

I come from everywhere,
and to everywhere I'm bound,
I am an art among arts,
A mountain among mountains.
