Filipinos dont wallow in what is miserable and ugly. They recycle the bad into things of beauty. – Imelda Marcos
The Philippines is a terrible name, coming from Spain. Phillip II was the father of the inquisition, who I believe died of syphilis. It is my great regret that we didnt change the name of our country. – Imelda Marcos
Never dress down for the poor. They wont respect you for it. They want their First Lady to look like a million dollars. – Imelda Marcos
I will come up with a project that will wipe out poverty in the Philippines in two years. I want to remove the people from economic crisis by using the Marcos wealth. Long after Im gone, people will remember me for building them homes and roads and hospitals and giving them food. – Imelda Marcos
