“The Portuguese homeland was made in the hardness of battle, grueling discoveries and conquest fevers, with strengthened arms and minds. By hard ungrateful work, subhuman efforts in both land and sea, long absences, pain, mourning, misery and famine, heroic souls gathered, making and remaking the History of Portugal. They couldn’t lift it with selfishness or commodities, fears of life or death, but with battling, praying, and suffering. Each of them, through modesty or greatness of their deeds, gave all they could, and for this, we are grateful.” 

— Salazar
