"...This nation can be great again. It is my article of faith, and Divine Providence has willed that you and I can now translate this faith into action. We must renew the vision of greatness for our country. We must awaken the hero inherent in every man. We must find the secret chords which turn ordinary man into heroes, mediocre fighters into champions. And I ask not for one hero among you but for many. In fact, I ask for all of you to be heroes of our nation. Offering our efforts to our Creator, we must drive ourselves to be great again."

- Ferdinand Marcos
