Noli Me Tángere
z

imprudent, what does that matter? The Filipinos are all very prudent, and that is
why our country is going the way she is. As it seems to me that we are not
making any progress by following prudence, I am going to look for another
pathway! The only thing that can detain me is a doubt whether my parents agree.
I am afraid to disturb their last years. In case they should object to my
homecoming, I would work for a livelihood in some other part of the world.

Surely I will leave tomorrow for Paris, and from there I don’t know where I am
going.
