B23 Barrio Colombia, Managua NICARAGUA, c1819

Crees que la vida es incendio,    

que el progreso es erupción;    

en donde pones la bala    

el porvenir pones.

No.

— Rubén Darío, “A Roosevelt,” 1904

Translation from Spanish to English:

You think life is fire,

that progress is eruption;

where you put your bullet

you put the future.

No.
