More quotes by 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
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
What is death to me? I have sown the seeds others will reap.
Jose Rizal
It is not the criminals who arouse the hatred of others, but the men who are honest.
Jose Rizal
Dying people don't need medicine, the ones who remain do.
Jose Rizal
Travel is a caprice in childhood, a passion in youth, a necessity in manhood, and an elegy in old age.
Jose Rizal
While a people preserves its language it preserves the marks of liberty.
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 wish to show those who deny us Patriotism that we know how to die for our country and convictions.
Jose Rizal
One only dies once, and if one does not die well, a good opportunity is lost and will not present itself again.
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
Death has always been the first sign of European civilization when introduced in the Pacific.
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
The tyranny of some is possible only through the cowardice of others.
Jose Rizal
I have to believe much in God because I have lost my faith in man.
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
The youth is the hope of our future.
Jose Rizal
The appetite is sharpened by the first bites.
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
Man works for an object. Remove that object and you reduce him into inaction.
