Our young people think about nothing more than love affairs and pleasure. They spend more time attempting to seduce and dishonor young women than in thinking about their country's welfare. Our women, in order to take care of the house and family of God, forget their own. Our men limit their activities to vice and their heroics to shameful acts. Children wake up in a fog of routine, adolescents live out their best years without ideals, and their elders are sterile, and only serve to corrupt our young people by their example.
José RizalDying people don't need medicine, the ones who remain do.
José RizalThe righteous man pays the sinner's bill.
José RizalThe God they preach about is pure invention, a trick. They're the first ones to not believe in Him!
José RizalO, in the solitude of those mountains I feel free, free as the air, like a light blasting unharnessed through space. A thousand cities, a thousand palaces I would give just for a corner of the Philippines where far away from man I could feel truly free!
José RizalA revolution, woven in the dim light of mystery, has kept me from you. Another revolution will return me to your arms, bring me back to life.
José RizalWhen a people holds onto its language, it holds onto a semblance of freedom, like a man who holds onto his independence when he retains his own way of thinking. Language is the thought of a people.
José RizalWould that I could die, reduce myself to nothing, leave a glorious name to my country, die in the cause of defending it against a foreign invasion and afterwards the sun will shine on my body like a permanent sentinel in these ocean rocks!
José RizalThe glory of saving a country doesn't mean having to use the measures that contributed to its ruin!
José RizalWhen a people is denied light, home, freedom, justice, all the good things without which life is not possible, and which constitute man's patrimony, a person has the right to deal with the people who despoil him, like a thief who assaults us in the roadway. No qualifications, no exceptions.
