Emiliano Zapata quotes:

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

Its better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.

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 ...

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

If there is not justice for the people, let there be no peace for the government.

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

Seek justice from tyrannical governments not with your hat in your hands but with a rifle in your fist.

I forgive those who murder and steal because they did it out of necessity, but a traitor never.

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.

I would rather die on my feet than continue living on my knees.

The land belongs to the people who work it,

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