La patria es ara, no pedestal.
--
The motherland is an altar, not a platform.

As quoted in José Martí : Selected Writings (2002) translated by Esther Allen, p. xxiJose Marti
There is never any real danger in allowing a pedestal for a hero. He never has time to sit on it. One sees him always over and over again kicking his pedestal out from under him, and using it to batter a world with.
