The Quezonian Mind

Admittedly, the late Manuel Luis Quezon is perhaps the only President who has left so much of his mind and heart to all Filipinos.

His speeches have been characterized by and emphasized the importance of democracy, nationalism, nation-building, social justice, good citizenship and national unity to achieve progress.

He has concrete plans to bring the government literally closer to the people. He worked hard for the independence of the Philippines which led to the establishment of the Philippine Commonwealth.

All these and such other remarkable legacies have helped shaped what we can call as "The Quezonian Mind" - which is actually the true Filipino spirit that places the welfare of the greater majority above personal interest. That greater majority starts with your own family, then the community and eventually the entire country.
