tribute to "tito"

it is feb 25, the EDSA People Power Day here in my beloved country. a friend texted me a quote, apparently, from Ninoy Aquino: "A time comes in a man's life when he must prefer a meaningful death to a meaningless life. I would rather die on my feet with honor, than live on bended knees in shame." and so i read about Ninoy on wikipedia. wow. by the way, he's not my biological uncle or in no way am i related to him, except that we are brothers as being both sons of the Philippines and God Almighty.
