Feminine light of the Revolution

Feminine light of the Revolution made goodness, nobility transformed into humanism and sacrifice; star transformed into dove, air and flower.

So simple was the greatness of someone who in times of war knew how to call herself Carmen, Caridad, Aly, but in the end she was always Celia, the one with the unmeasured tenderness, proverbial modesty, and a solution always at hand.

Those who knew her say that as a child she kept coins all year round to buy toys for poor children and that her hands did not tremble when it came to cutting her beautiful hair so that she could contribute to the revolutionary cause with the 25 pesos offered by a hairdresser.

Her people still feel her present in the free flight of a butterfly, in the sea breeze, in a happy child. She lives on as a native flower and grows in every triumph and every diaphanous smile.

Her energetic figure can be found in squares, museums, hospitals, schools and in every social project built in the country.

To speak of her is to think of her deep-rooted loyalty to the revolution, her joie de vivre, her constancy and devotion to just causes.

Celia Sánchez Manduley is present in every woman of these times, that rebellious, feminine, gallant and faithful woman who scatters seeds to illuminate the homeland.
