Quotable

“Opposing the government in Cuba is not easy.  And it is not possible for us exiles to have a decisive impact from the outside.  Cuba will not return to being what it was in 1959.  It is impossible to turn back the clock or to turn back history.  In these moments we do not have ways to understand the reality of those who live on the island and those arriving in the United States in recent years.  We are different.  And our children and grandchildren even more so.”

– Guillermo Martinez, in a commentary at the Radio Marti website, titled “I see Cuba from afar and it brings me sadness”
