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

Jose Rizal
It is not the criminals who arouse the hatred of others, but the men who are honest.
Jose Rizal
What is death to me? I have sown the seeds others will reap.
Jose Rizal
While a people preserves its language it preserves the marks of liberty.
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
Treat your old parents as you would like to be treated by your children later.
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
I go where there are no slaves, hangmen or oppressors where faith does not kill where the one who reigns is God.
Jose Rizal
Virtue lies in the middle ground.
