http://www.femalenetwork.com/girltalk/index.php?topic=294491.580so start up this thread, i was searching around for duterte quotable quotes. and lo and behold! most of what i found, mostly in international media sites, were the controversial ones he made lol. obvious na pala talaga sila ever since. but since i have listened to his various speeches, i know there are good ones out there.
"Courage knows no limit, cowardice does."
"Abuse your authority and there will be a hell to pay. For you will have become worse than criminality itself."
"All of us want peace, not the peace of the dead, of course, but the peace of the living."
"And the Filipino, disciplined, informed, and involved, shall rise from the rubbles of sorrow and pain."
"Finger-pointing is not the way of honorable men."
"In this quest, I will put at stake my honor, my life, my presidency."
i have families and relatives in Davao and for years, i have been hearing about how good his leadership is. everytime i do, i would often ask how he's dealing with dangerous people. in a way, it's ok to endanger your own self but if you're fighting against criminality, the common evil, it will not only affect you, but also the people around you. and after a while, i realized that he's not really lying when he said he could give up his life for the filipino people. at first, i did not want him to run because i wanted him to stay safe in his city and just enjoy his retirement. politics in the philippines is messy and some would never accept or appreciate a duterte leadership. hinde tayo sanay ng nagtatrabahong leader eh. gusto natin yung inuuto tayo LOL. but well, he became president. he's not perfect but he's the best and most sincere leader out there. and most corrupt-free. lagi nating nirireklamo ang corruption but for years, we kept voting for the same corrupt officials. and now that we have this president who hates corruption and drugs and criminals as much as we do, bakit hindi kayang sumoporta ng iba?
