“For how can I bear to see disaster fall on my people?

How can I bear to see the destruction of my family?”

Esther 8:6

—

Yo vengo de todas partes,

Y hacia todas partes voy:

Arte soy entre las artes,

En los montes, monte soy.

I come from many places,

And to every place I go:

I am art among the arts,

And mountain among mountains.

José Martí, Versos sencillos
(Simple Verses), 1891
