Famous quote by Jose Rizal

"The man is happiest who lives from day to day and asks no more, garnering the simple goodness of life"

"Action may not always bring happiness; but there is no happiness without action"

"There is more to life than increasing its speed"

"There are no gains without pains"

"Great effort from great motives is the best definition of a happy life"

"The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts; therefore guard accordingly"

"Seek the lofty by reading, hearing and seeing great work at some moment every day"

"We worked very hard to make the lyrics suit the music. I can't, like Elton John, for example, compose by lyrics. Elton has a great talent for that. Whatever you give him, including your questions, he composes in half an hour and makes a great song out of it"

"I said when I came into office that I don't want to be a great leader; I want to be a good democrat"
