Quote by E. San Juan Jr

“For about a century, Filipinos have remained subjugated bodies in a market-centered panopticon, dispersed as a 'warm body export' into the fetishized and fetishizing space of international commodity exchange, their memories of the injustice done to them temporarily suspended under the illusionary force of promised freedom and material success which that space imposes. But this amnesia is fast evaporating —E. San Juan. Jr. "Configuring the Filipino Diaspora in the United States”

“There now remain only a few books, which they call books of the lesser prophets; and as I have already shown that the greater are impostors, it would be cowardice to disturb the repose of the little ones.

I have now gone through the Bible, as a man would go through a wood with an axe on his shoulder, and fell trees. Here they lie; and the priests, if they can, may replant them. They may, perhaps, stick them in the ground, but they will never make them grow.”
