quotes by José Rizal

"One only dies once, and if one does not die well, a good opportunity is lost and will not present itself again."
— José Rizal

"Our liberty will not be secured at the sword's point... We must secure it by making ourselves worthy of it. And when the people reaches that height, God will provide a weapon, the idols will be shattered, tyranny will crumble like a house of cards, and liberty will shine out like the first dawn."
— José Rizal

"He who does not know how to look back at where he came from will never get to his destination."
— José Rizal
