Subcomandante Marcos cytaty

„Jedną tylko rzecz mówi nasze słowo.
Jedną tylko rzecz widzi nasz spojrzenie.
Konstytucyjne uznanie praw i kultury rdzennej ludności.
Godne miejsce dla koloru ziemi.
Nadszedł czas, by ten kraj przestał być wstydem okrytym jedynie kolorem pieniądza.
Nadszedł czas indiańskich ludów, koloru ziemi, wszystkich kolorów, którymi jesteśmy tu na dole, i kolorami jesteśmy mimo koloru pieniądza.
Jesteśmy rebeliantami, bo buntownicza jest ziemia, kiedy jest ten, kto ją sprzedaje i kupuje, jakby nie była ziemią i jakby nie istniał kolor, jakiego jesteśmy, barwa ziemi.
O, miasto Meksyk – przyszliśmy. Jesteśmy tutaj jako zbuntowany kolor ziemi, który krzyczy:
Demokracja!
Wolność!
Sprawiedliwość!”

Subcomandante Marcos

wystąpienie w imieniu Zapatystowskiej Armii Wyzwolenia Narodowego na Placu Zócalo w mieście Meksyk, 11 marca 2001.
Źródło: Mowa z Zócalo, przeł. Halina Lubicz-Trawkowska, w: Wielkie mowy historii, t. 4

„Nie jesteśmy tymi, co pragną wejść do rządu i stamtąd narzucać krok i słowo. Nie będziemy.
Nie jesteśmy tymi, co wyznaczają cenę własnej lub cudzej godności i zmieniają walkę w jarmark, gdzie polityka jest zajęciem handlarzy, bijących się nie o plany, lecz o klientów. Nie będziemy.
Nie jesteśmy tymi, co oczekują przebaczenia i jałmużny od tego, który udaje, że pomaga, gdy w rzeczywistości kupuje i nie wybacza, ale poniża tego, kto będąc, stanowi wyzwanie i żądanie, i popyt, i potrzebę. Nie będziemy.
Nie jesteśmy tymi, co w swojej naiwności oczekują, że z góry przyjdzie sprawiedliwość, która wzrasta od dołu, wolność, która tylko ze wszystkimi daje się zdobyć, demokracja, która ma wiele pięter i o którą się walczy przez cały czas. Nie będziemy.”

Subcomandante Marcos: Cytaty po angielsku

“Love is like a teacup that every day falls to the ground and breaks to pieces. In the morning the pieces are gathered and with a little moisture and a little warmth, the pieces are glued together, and again there is a little teacup. He who is in love spends life fearing that the terrible day will come when the teacup is so broken that it can no longer mended.”

“The world we want to transform has already been worked on by history and is largely hollow. We must nevertheless be inventive enough to change it and build a new world. Take care and do not forget ideas are also weapons.”

Le Monde Diplomatique (August 2000) " Ideas Are Also Weapons http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/Mexico/Ideas_weapons.html"

“Marcos is all the exploited, marginalised, oppressed minorities resisting and saying "Enough!" He is every minority who is now beginning to speak and every majority that must shut up and listen. He is every untolerated group searching for a way to speak. Everything that makes power and the good consciences of those in power uncomfortable — this is Marcos.”

“In previous armies, soldiers used their time to clean their weapons and stock up on ammunition. Our weapons are words, and we may need our arsenal at any moment.”

“We teach them that there are so many words like colors and that there are so many thoughts because within them is the world where words are born. That there are different thoughts and we should respect them. That there are those who pretend their way of thinking should be the only way and they persecute, jail, and kill (always hidden behind the reasons of the State, illegitimate laws, or "just causes") thoughts that are different then their own. And we teach them to speak the truth, that is to say, to speak with their hearts. Because the lie is another form of killing words.”

“Antonio dreams of owning the land he works on, he dreams that his sweat is paid for with justice and truth, he dreams that there is a school to cure ignorance and medicine to scare away death, he dreams of having electricity in his home and that his table is full, he dreams that his country is free and that this is the result of its people governing themselves, and he dreams that he is at peace with himself and with the world. He dreams that he must fight to obtain this dream, he dreams that there must be death in order to gain life. Antonio dreams and then he awakens…. Now he knows what to do and he sees his wife crouching by the fire, hears his son crying. He looks at the sun rising in the East, and, smiling, grabs his machete. The wind picks up, he rises and walks to meet others. Something has told him that his dream is that of many and he goes to find them.”

“We treat the children like children. It is the powerful with their war that treats them like they are adults. We talk to them. We teach them that the word, together with love and dignity, is what makes us human beings. We don't teach them how to fight. Well, yes, but only how to fight with their words. They learn. They know that the reason we are in all this is so that they won't have to do the same. And they talk and they also listen. Contrary to what you say, we teach the children that words don't kill but that yes it is possible to kill words and, along with them, the act of being human.”

La libertad es como la mañana. Hay quienes esperan dormidos a que llegue, pero hay quienes desvelan y caminan la noche para alcanzarla. <br class="br">La revuelta de la memoria (1999), p. 165, Centro de Información y Análisis de Chiapas. https://books.google.com/books?id=dVgWAAAAYAAJ&q=La+libertad+es+como+la+mañana.+Hay+quienes+esperan+dormidos+a+que+llegue,+pero+hay+quienes+desvelan+y+caminan+la+noche+para+alcanzarla.

“The prince has consequently issued orders: "Attack them! I shall supply the army and media. You come up with the ideas." So, right-wing intellectuals spend their time insulting their left-wing counterparts, and because of the Zapatista movement's international impact, they are now busy rewriting our story to suit the demands of the prince.”

“We teach them to speak and also to listen. Because when people only talk and don't listen, they end up thinking that what they say is the only thing that is worth anything. … Speaking and listening to words is how we know who we are, where we come from, and where our steps are going. Also it's how we know about others, their steps, and their world. Speaking and listening to words is like listening to life.”

“The storm is here. From the clash of these two winds the storm will be born, its time has arrived. Now the wind from above rules, but the wind from below is coming…. The prophecy is here. When the storm calms, when rain and fire again leave the country in peace, the world will no longer be the world but something better.”
