The progress of Fidel Castro

You will understand perfectly well the effort required by 40 men working 8 hours in a climate such as ours, digging furrows; you will understand how much human energy, how much effort and how much sacrifice these machines eliminate.
Through such methods, as the result of its tremendous rate of progress thanks to the use of technology, a modern and just society can achieve successes which will permit even animals -- those animals we still look upon with sorrow from time to time, because we also see them working in the fields -- will be set free by these machines. - Fidel Castro (1968)
