Rizal: Inday, ang hindi marunong magmahal sa sariling wika, ay mas masahol at masangsang pa sa halimaw at malansang isda. (He who does not know how to look back where he came from will never get to his destination. He who does not love his own language is worse than an animal and smelly fish.)
Inday: Thank you for your wonderful words of wisdom. But don’t you know that I’ve already read all your writings. And unfortunately, I was really disappointed because majority of your novels were written in Spanish and Latin. So, therefore,
you are the ultimate violator of your own aphorism.
Rizal: Yabang mo! Halimaw! (your so braggart! Monster!)
The best Tagalog joke ever. This is not intended to insult our national hero Dr. Jose Rizal for I truly admire his courageous writings and flight to win our country back.
Happy Independence day to my country Philippines!
When can we actually be truly free?
Mabuhay!
