MANDATE FOR GREATNESS Ferdinand E. Marcos Each generation writes its own history. Our forebears have written theirs. With fortitude and excellence we must write ours.

William Shakespeare is synonymous with greatness for a variety of reasons‚ not the least of which was his ability to take ordinary situations and make them intensely comical and/or interesting‚ and to do so in a way that relied almost completely on well-arranged dialogue to do so. But he wasn’t just a gifted comedian.

“There once was a little girl with a curl in the middle of her forehead and when she was good she was very very good and when she was bad she was horrid.” That is the poem my mother used to recite to me when I was being “strong-willed”.
