EMILIANO ZAPATA

It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.

I want to die a slave to principles. Not to men.

We do not want the peace of slaves nor the peace of the grave.

One of the happiest days of my life is when I made five or six hundred pesos from a crop of watermelons I raise all on my own.

The enemies of the country and of freedom of the people have always denounced as bandits those who sacrifice themselves for the noble causes of the people.

The land free, the land free for all, land without overseers and without masters.

The land belongs to those who work it with their hands.
