« All quotes from this author
 

Los caballos negros son.
Las herraduras son negras.
Sobre las capas relucen
manchas de tinta y de cera.
Tienen, por eso no lloran,
de plomo las calaveras.
Con el alma de charol
vienen por la carretera.
--
Black are the horses. The horseshoes are black. On the dark capes glisten stains of ink and wax. Their skulls are leaden, which is why they do not weep. With their patent leather souls they come down the street.
--
"Romance de la Guardia Civil Espa?ola" from Primer Romancero Gitano (1928)

There was a tsunami and there are terrible natural disasters, all of this because of too little Torah study. Where there is Torah it sustains the world. There are negros there [in New Orleans]. Negros will study Torah? Let's bring them a tsunami, drown them. Hundreds of thousands were left without a shelter. Tens of thousands died. All of this is because they have no God.
