Fire from the Mountain Quotes

“What I mean is, I woke up with an intense desire to live so that I could die and to die so that I could live. I wanted to die in order to live, to struggle in order to live for Latin America, to live and die for the Indians, to live and die for the blacks, to live and die for the animals, to live and die for my dad, who was a son of a bitch but a very nice guy. For the students, for Subtiava, for everything. These were the ideals I cherished and kept with me, in a private way, from the time I came up from the city to the mountains, and that I never talked about to anyone.”
― Omar Cabezas, Fire from the Mountain: The Making of a Sandinista
