Nothing is so irrevocable as mind.
I am not an icon of democracy. You are all, collectively, the icon of democracy.
It is not I who have been consigned to the bedroom of history.
I know my limitations, and I don't like politics. I was only involved because of my husband.
As I came to power peacefully, so shall I keep it.
I just do whatever it is that I believe I should do, regardless of the risks to my life.
I acknowledged that I owed my presidency to People Power. I resolved during my presidency that I would in turn empower the people.
I wanted to write something that would be a comedy in the sense of making people feel happier when they finish it than they did when began it.
Probably most dying patients, even when suffering greatly, would choose to live as long as possible. That courage and grace should be protected and honored, and we should put every effort into treating their symptoms.
Something I've noticed as I get older is that I do think about the future more. It's all positive thinking.
I know - from personal experience - that abiding values and abundant visions are learned in the homes of our people.
