"For you everything is political, and for you it all means partisanship, but fortunately outside this House, there is still a lot of fresh air and a lot of light under the sky. Listen to us with the cleanest heart you can, apart from their respective political parties, as ordinary men and women who are still able to hear a speech that - feeling sorry - has come out of our hearts.

If something brings us this pain is the maximum lucidity to feel. We, ladies and gentlemen, can tell you that we are not wearing glasses of any color. Only their partisan interests can make this reality blind. From the moral authority we hold, the only one who can ever usurp us, we demand that you not manipulate us, do not use us. We do not have acronyms. If these are the only glasses with which you can see the world, make the effort to take them off for a moment and look at us, listen to us, think and feel that we are human beings."

Pilar Manjón, Spokesperson for the Association 11-M Affected by Terrorism
