Jose Rizal
Oh how beautiful to fall to give you flight, to die to give you life, to rest under your sky and in your enchanted land forever sleep.
Jose Rizal
Travel is a caprice in childhood, a passion in youth, a necessity in manhood, and an elegy in old age.
Jose Rizal
It is a useless life that is not consecrated to a great ideal. It is like a stone wasted on the field without becoming a part of any edifice.

Jose Rizal
Each one writes history according to his convenience.
Jose Rizal
Your enemies hate you more than they hate your ideas. Should you want a project to be undone propose it. Even if it were as useful as a bishop's mire it would be rejected. Once you are defeated let the humblest-looking among you sponsor it and your enemies to humble you will approve it.
Jose Rizal
It is not the criminals who arouse the hatred of others, but the men who are honest.
Jose Rizal

Jose Rizal
To live is to be among men, and to be among men is to struggle, a struggle not only with them but with oneself with their passions, but also with one's own.
Jose Rizal
Let us not ask for miracles, let us not ask for concern with what is good for the country of him who comes as a stranger to make his fortune and leave afterwards.
Jose Rizal
I have to believe much in God because I have lost my faith in man.
Jose Rizal
I have observed that the prosperity or misery of each people is in direct proportion to its liberties or its prejudices and, accordingly, to the sacrifices or the selfishness of its forefathers. -Juan Crisostomo Ibarra
Jose Rizal
I honor the father in his son, not the son in his father. Each one receives a reward or punishment for his deeds, but not for the acts of others.
Jose Rizal
