    Jose P.

    Laurel

    As a Filipino social thinker


    Basic Principle of Jose P. Laurel

    • Freedom is a divine
    endowment and is not a
    matter of grant or
    concession by the earthly
    powers that be.
    Nationalist Thought of Jose P. Laurel
    • In the Philippines… we have abundant resources, gifted to us
    by a generous Providence, we have idle manpower by the
    millions, we have a population… which our land and resources
    can comfortably sustain. The challenge to this generation,
    therefore, is to put our available manpower to work on the
    resources of the country to produce abundance enough for all,
    but also in the fullest atmosphere of freedom. The most that
    we can do… is to be able to launch and assist in the best way
    we can our young champions of integrity and patriotism, of
    genuine love for the common people… As they strive
    ceaselessly in unselfish dedication and with the good of the
    greatest number steady in their mind’s vision, I am confident
    that they will succeed.
    Jose P. Laurel on Freedom

    • Freedom not slavery nor subjection nor


    subservience to the will of another is the
    natural God-given status of a man and of
    a nation.
    Isabelo de los Reyes

    "Father of Philippine Folklore“,

    • He was elected senator of the first
