"Memory is good," the greatest gods said and told, "because it is the mirror which helps to understand the present and promises the future."
The first gods measured out memory with a jicara in order to share it out and all the men and women came by to receive their measure of memory. But some of the men and women were larger than the others and then the measure of memory was not seen equally in all. It shone clearly in the smallest and in the largest it was made opaque. Because of that they say that they say memory is greatest and strongest in the smallest and it is harder to find in the powerful.

Pablo Neruda: La palabra
Nació
la palabra en la sangre,
creció en el cuerpo oscuro, palpitando,
y voló eon los labios y la boca.
Más lejos y más cerca
aún, aún venía
de padres muertos y de errantes razas,
de territorios que se hicieron piedra,
que se cansaron de sus pobres tribus,
porque cuando el dolor salió al camino
los pueblos anduvieron y llegaron
y nueva tierra y agua reunieron
para sembrar de nuevo su palabra.
Y así la herencía es ésta:
éste es el aire que nos comunica
con el hombre enterrado y con la aurora
de nuevos seres que aún no amanecieron.
Aún la atmósfera tiembla
eon la primera palabra
elaborada
con pánico y gemido.
Salió
de las tinieblas
y hasta ahora no hay trueno
que truene aún con su ferretería
como aquella palabra,
la primera
palabra pronunciada:
tal vez sólo un susurro fue, una gota,
y cae y cae aún su catarata.
Luego el sentido llena la palabra.
Quedó preñada y se llenó de vidas,
Todo fue nacimientos y sonidos:
la afirmación, la claridad, la fuerza,
la negación, la destrucción, la muerte:
el verbo asumió todos los poderes
y se fundió existencia con esencia
en la electricidad de su hermosura.
Palabra humana, sílaba, cadera
de larga luz y dura platería,
hereditaria copa que recibe
las comunicaciones de la sangre:
he aquí que el silencio fue integrado
por el total de la palabra humana
y no hablar es morir entre los seres:
se hace lenguaje hasta la cabellera,
habla la boca sin mover los labios:
los ojos de repente son palabras.
Yo tomo la palabra y la recorro
como si fuera sólo forma humana,
me embelesan sus líneas y navego
en cada resonancia del idioma:
pronuncio y soy y sin hablar me acerca
el fin de las palabras al silencio.
Bebo por la palabra levantando
una palabra o copa cristalina,
en ella bebo
el vino del idioma
o el agua interminable,
manantial maternal de las palabras,
y copa y agua y vino
originan mi canto
porque el verbo es origen
y vierte vida: es sangre,
es la sangre que expresa su substancia
y está dispuesto así su desarrollo:
dan cristal al cristal, sangre a la sangre,
y dan vida a la vida las palabras.

The Word
The word
was born in the blood,
grew in the dark body, beating,
and took flight through the lips
and the mouth.
Farther away and nearer
still, still it came
from dead fathers and from wandering races,
from lands which had turned to stone,
lands weary of their poor tribes,
for when grief took to the roads
the people set out and arrived
and married new land and water
to grow their words again.
And so this is the inheritance;
this is the wavelength which connects us
with dead men and the dawning
of new beings not yet come to light.
Still the atmosphere quivers
with the first word uttered
dressed up
in terror and sighing.
It emerged
from the darkness
and until now there is no thunder
that ever rumbles with the iron voice
of that word,
the first
word uttered --
perhaps it was only a ripple,
a single drop,
and yet its great cataract
falls and falls.
Later on, the word fills with meaning.
Always with child, it filled up
with lives.
Everything was births and sounds --
affirmation, clarity, strength,
negation, destruction, death --
the verb took over all the power
and blended existence with essence
in the electricity of its grace.
Human word, syllable, flank
of extending light and
solid silverwork,
hereditary goblet which receives
the communications of the blood --
here is where silence came together with
the wholeness of the human word,
and, for human beings,
not to speak is to die --
language extends even to the hair,
the mouth speaks without the lips moving,
all of a sudden, the eyes are words.
I take the word and pass it
through any senses
as though it were no more than a
human shape;
its arrangements awe me and I
find my way
through each resonance of the
spoken word --
I utter and I am and,
speechless, I approach
across the edge of words
silence itself.
I drink to the word, raising
a word or a shining cup;
in it I drink
the pure wine of language
or inexhaustible water,
maternal source of words,
and cup and water and wine
give rise to my song
because the verb is the source
and vivid life -- it is blood,
blood which expresses its substance
and so ordains its own unwinding.
Words give glass quality to
glass, blood to blood,
and life to life itself.

Subcomandante Insurgente Marcos: The history of the measure of memory
To the national press:
Ladies and gentlemen:
A few reflections on Fobaproa and a taking of a position.
From here nothing new, an abundance of planes and helicopters promising war, rains promising sowing, and dignitaries promising futures. The children continue being children, and little Pedrito has re-baptized me as "Up" (an easy abbreviation for "Sup" as I understand), while he tries to find out if my pipe is made of chocolate as were some cigarettes he had been given.
While the sea dreams with me in the womb, I remember that in the next few days (August 28?), the Ladies will be celebrating the twentieth anniversary of an act which, like everything that comes from below, began small and then grew.
Twenty years ago a group of determined and inconvenient (for the Power) women and men began a hunger strike demanding the liberation of political prisoners and the presentation of the disappeared.
We, and others without memory, owe these women of foolish tenderness many things. The Ladies know that memory does not rest nor yield, nor does it have age, nor does dignity have size. And then Old Antonio comes with one of the gifts for the sea, and he tells, just to tell...
The history of the measure of memory
The oldest of our old tell, that the first gods, those who created the world, shared out memory among the men and women who walked in the world.
"Memory is good," the greatest gods said and told, "because it is the mirror which helps to understand the present and promises the future."
The first gods measured out memory with a jicara in order to share it out and all the men and women came by to receive their measure of memory. But some of the men and women were larger than the others and then the measure of memory was not seen equally in all. It shone clearly in the smallest and in the largest it was made opaque. Because of that they say that they say memory is greatest and strongest in the smallest and it is harder to find in the powerful.
That is why they also say that men and women become smaller and smaller when they grow old. They say it is so memory will shine more brightly. They say that it is the work of the oldest of the old: to make memory great.
They also say that dignity is no more than memory which lives. They say.
Vale.
Salud and may memory carry out its mission, to make justice.
From the mountains of Southeastern Mexico.
