"I believe much of that beauty lives here, with us, in our streets and across our landscapes. What is lacking is not aesthetics, but our desire to see and cherish what our little corner of the world has to offer, to get to know this place we are from, to appreciate the complexity, the dangers, the wild nature and the simple joys that litter the rest of the community."
-Ma. Gabriela C. Tatad, Ang GAnda ng Pilipinas, Young Blood
