Shadows cannot see themselves in the mirror of the sun.
If I have to apply five turns to the screw each day for the happiness of Argentina, I will do it.
Put down me for a lifetime of success: give me credit, I'll find ways of paying.
I demanded more rights for women because I know what women had to put up with.
I have one thing that counts, and that is my heart; it burns in my soul, it aches in my flesh, and it ignites my nerves: that is my love for the people and Peron.
The nation's government has just handed me the bill that grants us our civil rights. I am receiving it before you, certain that I am accepting this on behalf of all Argentinean women, and I can feel my hands tremble with joy as they grasp the laurel proclaiming victory.
