used books,books, An excerpt from the Preface: A leader crowned his speeches with such questions, after reminding audiences that the fastest way from a speaker's lips or a writer's pen, to another's heart, is through stories. With them he celebrated the sacredness of the ordinary. He paid tribute to heroic acts of simple Filipinos who have made and continue to make a difference: those he knew, encountered, touched, and who touched him. He sought to honor them by passing their lessons on to audiences that were usually in the grip of despair; indifference of cynicism, and that made all the difference. This book is something he would have wanted to complete if he were still alive today. Like the legacies of many leaders past, this is one that goes beyond his own life. It points toward a multitude of others-who are among us, living simple lives with passion, consistency, and hope. Citizens who are redefining heroism and what it means to be a Filipino: with each quiet deed, one after the other; from the grassroots to overseas, all of them in our midst. -Araw ng Kalayaan, June '07, Oxford, England.
