A Quote

Here is a quote worth archiving from General Angie Reyes. The quote was found from his final words before committing suicide:

I did not invent corruption. I walked into it. Perhaps my first fault was in having accepted aspects of it as a fact of life.

For non-Filipinos, the quote comes from a government official who committed suicide in the midst of corruption allegations.

His guilt was never proven but it was (sadly) presumed. We are a society that forgives easily but before that forgiveness we chastise hastily, irrationally and harshly. No wonder he felt isolated, lonely and depressed.

Here were his final words.
