131st Birth Anniversary
of President Manuel L. Quezon
" The Government of the Philippines is not only the Government of all officials of the Government. It is the Government of all Filipinos and the interest of the people should be placed over and above the welfare of the party".
"A selfish man cannot be a patriot, because patriotism demands self-denial, the surrender of hopes for personal glory to the greater good, for the advancement of his fellowmen, his community, and his country".
A well- known speech of Pres. Quezon a president that only wants is the good of the nation. HE was the spirit of nationalism since year of Baler. From a young officer in the army of Gen.Aguinaldo, he defended the first Phil. Republic against the Spanish colonizers.
He saw that only through a national language can the pillars of unity be strengthened a language that captures the thoughts and sentiments of every Filipinos. Independence is meaningless if it is only for the benefits if the few. It must be for the sake of ALL.
