Aniceto contributed phrases to the Salvadorean vocabulary such as:

• "Uno de cipote es tonto" (one is dumb when young).
• "Esto no lo venden en la tienda de la esquina, solo Dios lo da," (They don't sell this at the corner store, only God can give it) which he would often say while tapping on his forehead and referring to his intelligence.
