There Can Be No Tyrants Where There

I Go Where There Are No Slaves, Hangmen Or Oppressors; Where Faith Does Not Kill; Where The One Who Reigns Is God.

A God Who Chastises Our Lack Of Faith, Our Vices, The Little Esteem In Which We Hold Dignity And The Civic Virtues. We Tolerate Vice, We Make Ourselves Its Accomplices, At Times We Applaud It, And It Is Just, Very Just That We Suffer The Consequences, That Our Children Suffer Them. It Is The God Of Liberty ... Who Obliges Us To Love It, By Making The Yoke Heavy For Us - A God Of Mercy, Of Equity, Who While He Chastises Us Betters Us And Only Grants Prosperity To Him Who Has Merited It Through His Efforts. The School Of Suffering Tempers, The Arena Of Combat Strengthens The Soul.

Our Liberty Will Not Be Secured At The Sword's Point... We Must Secure It By Making Ourselves Worthy Of It. And When The People Reaches That Height, God Will Provide A Weapon, The Idols Will Be Shattered, Tyranny Will Crumble Like A House Of Cards, And Liberty Will Shine Out Like The First Dawn.

If The Philippines Secure Their Independence After Heroic And Stubborn Conflicts, They Can Rest Assured That Neither England, Nor Germany, Nor France, And Still Less Holland, Will Dare To Take Up What Spain Has Been Unable To Hold.

I Want To Show To Those Who Deprive People The Right To Love Of Country, That When We Know How To Sacrifice Ourselves For Our Duties And Convictions, Death Does Not Matter If One Dies For Those One Loves – For His Country And For Others Dear To Him.
