Lateinamerika / Latin America Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Lateinamerika / Latin America:

Puerto Ricans are U.S. citizens, but by their own choice, Puerto Rico is not a state. The relationship has worked well for Puerto Rico - which has strengthened its culture, language and economy - and for the United States, which has helped create in Puerto Rico a showcase of democracy and prosperity for all of Latin America. Anibal Acevedo Vila

The progressive movement against the war of occupation in Iraq is a reason for hope, as is resistance to free trade agreements in Latin America. Those are moments that we have to celebrate: that people still find the resolve and energy to resist.

I was the first person to come into New York with a Latin American point of view which was also very much influenced by political happenings in Latin America.

The left is being funded primarily by the drug traffickers who provide this tax money and that's why the guerrillas in Colombia, unlike the guerrillas anywhere else in Latin America, have been able to survive for 40 years because they have a hard, solid source of income.

Alma Guillermoprieto

Alejandro Jodorowsky

You should never turn your back on the market that gave you notoriety and be who you are and give you the numbers it gives you in the United States. I can't deny that the success I've had in the United States or the success that 'Pulling Strings' was due to my work in Latin America.

Jaime Camil

I asked the producers when I was doing 'Y Tu Mama Tambien' if they could give me a VHS recording of the film that I could show to my family, because in Mexico and Latin America, when you do a film, you don't expect anybody to see it, especially not in the cinema.

Gael Garcia Bernal

Brazil has a lot of issues that are similar to a lot of countries in Latin America, but the dominant issue Brazil is dealing with is poverty and political corruption.

Morena Baccarin

I decided to go to Latin America because many of my students in Washington emigrated from this region and inspired me to learn more about their home countries.

I must try and break through the cliches about Latin America. Superpowers and other outsiders have fought over us for centuries in ways that have nothing to do with our problems. In reality we are all alone.

There are still 500,000 persons afflicted with leprosy in Latin America, so it is still very much present.

When I was at university in the Fifties, Latin America was full of dictators. Trujillo was the emblematic figure because, of course, of his cruelty, corruption, extravagance, and theatricalities.

Mario Vargas Llosa

It is important to remember that some of the most serious thinkers once thought that democracy was not compatible with the cultures of Germany, Italy, Japan, Latin America and Russia.

Doing films in Latin America is like an act of faith. I mean, you really have to believe in what you're doing because if not, you feel like it's a waste of time because you might as well be doing something that at least pays you the rent.

Gael Garcia Bernal

No offense to Iceland, but Latin America is where the fugitive leaker Edward Snowden should settle.

Stephen Kinzer

People should focus on my foundation, my projects, and everything positive and important that I am doing in Latin America and the around the world.

No child should be left behind - I've heard this from President Obama. And here, we say in Latin America, no country should be left behind.

Sebastian Pinera

The European brand of fascism will probably present its most serious postwar threat to us via Latin America.

Henry A. Wallace

One sees in Latin America, and also elsewhere, among many Catholics a certain schizophrenia between individual and public morality.

Pope Benedict XVI

The peoples of Asia, Africa, and Latin America have common interest and are in the position to support each other in their anti-imperialist and anti-U.S. struggle. As long as Africa and Latin America are not free.

Hugo Chavez

In Latin America, specialists and polling organisations have, for some time, observed that the extension of formal democracy was accompanied by an increasing disillusionment about democracy and a lack of faith in democratic institutions.

Noam Chomsky

The fascists in most Latin American countries tell the people that the reason their wages will not buy as much in the way of goods is because of Yankee imperialism. The fascists in Latin America learn to speak and act like natives.

Henry A. Wallace

There are no regions in the world as reciprocally integrated as Latin America and the Caribbean, and Europe.

Federica Mogherini
