"La explicacion del interes en el pasado se halla en la adquisicion de la
conciencia du una nobleza heredada. No como los hijos sin padreque se
recatan en la sombra, sino como hijos que saben que tienen ancestros
valiosos y se ponen a indagar su--ancestral grandeza. Y este es el hecho mas
importante: lograr la plena conviccion de que Mexico no es un improvisado en
la cultura" Angel Ma. Garibay K.
