{{cquote|I come from the island of Cuba where access to the Internet is very limited, almost impossible. I never had full Internet access while living over there. In 2001 I moved to the USA where I currently live with my beautiful family. One of the first things that I discovered in my new life was the power of the Internet. I came to understand that power the day I discovered Wikipedia. I can't even tell you how much I have learned by clicking on the endless Wikipedia doors to knowledge. Whenever I need to explore a subject the first step is see what wikipedia says about that subject. I hope that Wikipedia keeps being alive and free forever. That's why I made a modest donation. If I could I would donate a whole million to it. Thank you Wikipedia!}} |

{{cquote|My mother was a librarian and I grew up with a library as a sort of 2nd home when my mother used to take me along to work. Later in my school years, I would drop by whenever I was off from school. I grew up having an repository of knowledge as my playground and now I understand what that meant, how much it enriched my life and imagination and empowered me to be who I am today. |
