Elena Poniatowska Quotes

I Live To The Rhythm Of My Country And I Cannot Remain On The Sidelines. I Want To Be Here. I Want To Be Part Of It. I Want To Be A Witness. I Want To Walk Arm In Arm With It. I Want To Hear It More And More, To Cradle It, To Carry It Like A Medal On My Chest. Activism Is A Constant Element In My Life, Even Though Afterwards I Anguish Over Not Having Written 'my Own Things.' Testimonial Literature Provides Evidence Of Events That People Would Like To Hide, Denounces And Therefore Is Political And Part Of A Country In Which Everything Remains To Be Done And Documented.
