"On October 9, 1820 is one of the biggest historical deeds of Ecuador, America's largest. Without the October 9, 1820, have been frustrated the efforts of August 10, 1809, would have been sterile blood of heroes in the Royal Barracks in Lima, since it joined the bandwagon of victory and updated the heroic sacrifice. "
"On October 9 has thesis that can not disappear and not disappear from the national spirit and the vibration of the whole spirit of Ecuador. On October 9 meant the freedom of Guayaquil, Guayaquil independent and free with its three stars, the star of freedom, equality and fraternity with the stars of idealism, patriotism and civic force.
"This independent Guayaquil the October 9, 1820 meant that from here moved Ecuadorian patriotism. General Sucre threw their armies to the conquest of the freedom of the Sierra to produce shortly after the Battle of Pichincha, ringing in the annals as a colossal historical echo of the heroes of October. Hence, the October 9 constitute a basis of nationality. Hence, this time strengthens our way of being autonomous, free, conscious and independent. "
" But the fact is not there. There would have been if the October 9 had no function but merely instrumental to the country of Ecuador. It goes far beyond, is that from Guayaquil Guayaquil heroism is projected over the South American continent, from Guayaquil are generated because the great battles that gave full freedom to America with the battles of Junín and Ayacucho.
"Here's the rundown: Free America, Ecuador up, thanks and thanks to the October 9, 1820.
In this masterful speech by President Camilo Ponce Enríquez, given in 1957 at the Main Port, on the anniversary octubrino (when the real president was president and the speeches were speeches), highlighted the brilliant episode 1820, with its intrinsic worth and also as the indispensable link between the Grito de la Independencia de Quito and full freedom in South America. Without that ring, would have been fruitless initial actions and would have delayed the full emancipatory action.
As Ponce himself said, history does not recognize chance, but causalities, and on 9 October was, in relation to antecedent to consequent, cause, the great cause of freedom in the lands south of Panama. So you have to understand the great action of Guayaquil, whose leading men, a few days from the day 9, organized troops to go to military action that would seal the independence of Quito. Had neither selfishness nor blindness but clear vision and comprehensive homeland.
Now, on this anniversary, you have to adjust your sights and understand properly the role of Guayaquil in the national history, always in pursuit of freedom and the strengthening of a democratic republic, in which the whip should never be shaken despotism.
