 “without 1872, there would be no
Plaridel, Jaena, or Sanciongco; nor
would the brave and generous
Filipino colonies in Europe have
existed. Without 1872, Rizal would
now have been a Jesuit and instead
of writing Noli Me Tangere would
have written the opposite.
Observing the injustices and
cruelties fired my young imagination
Jose Rizal and I pledge to dedicate myself to
La Solidaridad avenge someday those victims.
With this idea, I have studied and
this can be discerned in all my works
and writings. God will give me the
opportunity someday to keep my

vow.”
