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

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.

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

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

Más vale morir de pie que vivir de rodillas

I would rather die standing than live on my knees!
