More quotes by Jose Rizal
How long have you been away from the country? Laruja asked Ibarra. Almost seven years. Then you have probably forgotten all about it. Quite the contrary. Even if my country does seem to have forgotten me, I have always thought about it.
Jose Rizal
The appetite is sharpened by the first bites.
Jose Rizal
In the Middle Ages, everything bad was the work of the devil, everything good, the work of God. Today, the French see everything in reverse and blame the Germans for it.
Jose Rizal
To be happy does not mean to indulge in foolishness!
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
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
Treat your old parents as you would like to be treated by your children later.
Jose Rizal
It is not the criminals who arouse the hatred of others, but the men who are honest.
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
Tomorrow at 7, I shall be shot but I am innocent of the crime of rebellion. I am going to die with a tranquil conscience.
Jose Rizal
Climate affects bipeds in the same way it does quadrupeds.
Jose Rizal
Friar! What a strange name. I don't remember having created such a thing!
Jose Rizal
Hold high the brow serene, O youth, where now you stand Let the bright sheen Of your grace be seen, Fair hope of my fatherland!
Jose Rizal
But because their ancestors were men of righteousness, shall we consent to the abuses of their degenerate descendants? Because they did us a great good, would we be guilty if we prevented them from doing us evil?
Jose Rizal
I don't see why I should bow my head when I could hold it high, or place it in the hands of my enemies when I can defeat them.
Jose Rizal
Each one writes history according to his convenience.
Jose Rizal
He who would love much has also much to suffer.
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
What is death to me? I have sown the seeds others will reap.
Jose Rizal
The tyranny of some is possible only through the cowardice of others.
Jose Rizal
