“Upang maitindig natin ang tunay
na bantayog ng ating
panlipunang pagbabanyuhay,
kailangang radikal nating
baguhin hindi lamang ang ating
mga institusyon kundi maging
ang paraan ng ating
pamumuhay at pag-iisip. Ang
kailangan ay isang
rebolusyon hindi lamang sa
panlabas kundi na sa
panloob.”
-Apolinario Mabini,
Revolution Filipina (1898)
