Jose Rizal
He who would love much has also much to suffer.
Jose Rizal
Man works for an object. Remove that object and you reduce him into inaction.
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
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
Ignorance is servitude, because as a man thinks, so he is a man who does not think for himself and allows himself to be guided by the thought of another is like the beast led by a halter.
Jose Rizal

Jose Rizal
Travel is a caprice in childhood, a passion in youth, a necessity in manhood, and an elegy in old age.
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

Jose Rizal
I have to believe much in God because I have lost my faith in man.
Jose Rizal
Dying people don't need medicine, the ones who remain do.
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
