In Quezon's Code of Citizenship and Ethics, the significance of Faith was placed first and obviously emphasized as follows:
"Have Faith in the Divine Providence that guides the destinies of men and nations."
President Quezon has placed so much trust in God that he further declared his unconditional faith when he said that -
"I seek God's help in meeting the grave responsibility that has been placed on my shoulders." (Source : Literary Digest, 28 September 1935 quoting President Quezon after winning the elections to become the President of the Philippine Commonwealth).
It is obvious that President Quezon does out rely on himself alone. He knows that human efforts are not enough to accomplish what he may have set out to do.
It has always been said that "if God is with us, who can be against us" and indeed "with God nothing is impossible."
The rest is history. President Quezon did not only lead us through the most challenging period in our nation's history but he has likewise laid down the principles that guided us in our struggle for self-determination and eventual independence.
