Cuban History

Let the wine be made of plantains. If it turns out bitter, it is still our wine. It is understood that the forms of government of a country must be adapted to that country's nature, that absolute ideas must be expressed in relative forms or formal errors will bring their downfall, that for liberty to work, it must be sincere and complete, that if a republic does not open its arms to all and advance with all, the republic dies. Tigers, both from within and without, come in through the chinks.
