Ambeth R. Ocampo
“Filipinos are not a reading people, and despite the compulsory course on the life and works of Rizal today, from the elementary to the university levels, it is accepted that the 'Noli me Tangere' and 'El Filibusterismo' are highly regarded but seldom read (if not totally ignored). Therefore one asks, how can unread novels exert any influence?”
Ambeth Ocampo, Rizal Without the Overcoat

Abhijit Naskar
“Philippines is the only country so far, where I have not faced any hate and bigotry.”
Abhijit Naskar, Bulletproof Backbone: Injustice Not Allowed on My Watch
