It's the rich you can terrorize. The poor have nothing to lose.
Imelda Marcos
Image
I am beyond logic and rationality.
Imelda Marcos
Image
I really had no great love for shoes. I was a working First Lady I was always in canvas shoes. I did nurture the shoes industry of the Philippines, and so every time there was a shoe fair, I would receive a pair of shoes as a token of gratitude.

Image
People say I'm extravagant because I want to be surrounded by beauty. But tell me, who wants to be surrounded by garbage?
Imelda Marcos
Image
My grandchildren are growing up and they could not understand why the Marcoses are still being crucified although we keep on telling them that we did not steal from the Filipino people.

Image
Life is not a matter of place, things or comfort rather, it concerns the basic human rights of family, country, justice and human dignity.

Image
They need a role model. They need a star!
Imelda Marcos

I get so tired listening to one million dollars here, one million dollars there, it's so petty.
Imelda Marcos
Image
I always say you can never be extravagant with beauty. Beauty is God made real. Beauty is life.
Imelda Marcos
Image
It is terribly important to do certain things, such as wear overembroidered dresses. After all, the mass follows class. Class never follows mass.
Imelda Marcos
Image
More than life, I value vindication. When you are at peace with the truth and you know that you are on the side of the right and God is on your side, you are not afraid of anything, including jail.
Imelda Marcos
Image
The Philippines is in a strategic position. It is both East and West, right and left, rich and poor. We are neither here nor there.
Imelda Marcos
Image
Perception is real, truth is not. I'm not fighting for money and possessions. I'm fighting for something more precious. I pray that as we enter the cyber age -- the Age of Transparency -- the facts and the truth will out.
Imelda Marcos
Image
I will not say sorry and be pardoned for doing a godly act.
Imelda Marcos
Image
What's wrong with shoes? I collected them because it was like a symbol of thanksgiving and love?
Imelda Marcos
Image
They call me corrupt, frivolous. I am not at all privileged. Maybe the only privileged thing is my face. And corrupt? God! I would not look like this if I am corrupt. Some ugliness would settle down on my system.
Imelda Marcos
Image
Never dress down for the poor. They won't respect you for it. They want their First Lady to look like a million dollars.
Imelda Marcos
Image
They've listed my name in the dictionary - 'Imeldific' is used to mean ostentatious extravagance... But the truth will prevail.
Imelda Marcos
Image
God is love. I have loved. Therefore, I will go to heaven.
Imelda Marcos

If you know how much you've got, you probably haven't got much.
