I want to show to those who deprive people the right to love of country, that when we know how to sacrifice ourselves for our duties and convictions, death does not matter if one dies for those one loves – for his country and for others dear to him.

Treat your old parents as you would like to be treated by your children later.

I don't see why I should bow my head when I could hold it high, or place it in the hands of my enemies when I can defeat them.

When there is in nature no fixed condition, how much less must there be in the life of a people, beings endowed with mobility and movement!

The people do not complain because they have no voice; do not move because they are lethargic, and you say that they do not suffer because you have not seen their hearts bleed.

I honor the father in his son, not the son in his father. Each one receives a reward or punishment for his deeds, but not for the acts of others.

I die without seeing dawn's light shining on my country... You, who will see it, welcome it for me...don't forget those who fell during the nighttime.
