The commemoration of the death anniversary of Ninoy Aquino continues the “Yellow Fever” that has been spreading in the country because of the recent death of Cory Aquino, our beloved president, the mother of our democracy and most of all Ninoy Aquino’s wife. In honor of Ninoy Aqino, I have written several post in his honor, the first being “My top ten favorite Ninoy Aquino Quotes” and then followed by the post “Ninoy Aquino is alive” which gives a little bit of history into his life and the significance of his heroic acts and deeds.

In this connection to honor the great man, and in honor of his 26th death anniversary this day, I am coming up with my top ten favorite Ninoy Aquino quotes much as I have come up with my top ten favorite Cory Aquino quotes.
