“You will find that our enemies are our own kin. It is they who betray us. So learn this most important lesson-in the end, our worst enemy is ourselves”
― F. Sionil José, Ben Singkol

“We cannot be rooted in the past forever. We must not be sentimental.”
― F. Sionil José, Ermita

“No man stops caring as long as he breathes. As long as he has a mind and memory, he will care. This is what separates us from the animals. We have feelings.”
― F. Sionil José, The God Stealer and Other Stories

“When you love someone, that love has no limit, no measure, because you know in your deepest being that when that love demands sacrifice, you will give it without question. You will not look for reasons, for justification - the act of giving, of sacrificing, is a natural compulsion, like breathing, and it will, in the end, surprise you because you did it without second thoughts.”
― F. Sionil José, Vibora!
