"Revolution is a sense of the historical moment;

It is changing everything that needs to be changed;

it is complete equality and freedom;

it is being treated and treating others as human beings;

it is emancipating ourselves through our own efforts;

it is challenging powerful dominant forces within and outside the social and national sphere;

it is defending values we believe in at any price;

It is modesty, selflessness, altruism, solidarity, and heroism;

it is fighting with audacity, intelligence, and realism;

it is never lying or violating ethical principles;

it is the profound conviction that there is no force in the world capable of crushing the power of truth and ideas.

Revolution is unity,
it is independence,
it is fighting for our dreams of justice for Cuba and for the world.

This is the foundation of our patriotism, our socialism, and our internationalism.”

Fidel Castro Ruz
