Jose Rizal

Jose Rizal
Each one writes history according to his convenience.
Jose Rizal
To be happy does not mean to indulge in foolishness!
Jose Rizal
No one blames a pilot who takes refuge in port when the storm begins to blow. It is not cowardice to duck under a bullet what is wrong is to defy it only to fall and never rise again.
Jose Rizal
I have to believe much in God because I have lost my faith in man.
Jose Rizal
Travel is a caprice in childhood, a passion in youth, a necessity in manhood, and an elegy in old age.
