The only thing I can really offer the Filipino people is my sincerity.

I would rather die a meaningful death than to live a meaningless life.

Let's continue to pray for each other and ask the Lord to bring us closer to each other. He (God) will bring us not only 79 votes, but more than 79 (votes).

I know my limitations, and I don't like politics. I was only involved because of my husband.

Keep inviolate an area of light and peace within you.

Reconciliation should be accompanied by justice, otherwise it will not last. While we all hope for peace it shouldn't be peace at any cost but peace based on principle, on justice.

As our country bled . . . its leader's wife came to this podium piously to call for a new human order, this when thousands of Filipinos were political prisoners.
