"Always treat your work, product, action, behavior and specially your name like it's a brand... " -Choloisms
"The ride was kinda bumpy, like a bulbous ginger ready to be peeled from the earth... peeled gingerly (no pun intended) to expose the fragrant flesh... like a day in my life... earthily dark soil, plucked, peeled and then being thrown to the hot wok after." -Choloisms
"It just felt like good old fashion pesto... not really osterizing... it's a feeling of gently pounding me with pine nuts and parmesan... and oiling me with some lovely extra virgin-ness..." -Choloisms
"I reckon if COMELEC gave a simpler reason for turning down LADLAD, like basically the pseudo conservative system isn't ready for anything like it, and not in the grounds of immorality, it could have been more palatable for everyone.... stupid reasons come from stupid people... and yes, our taxes pay them to do that (unfortunately)..." –Choloisms
"I long forgot being religious... I reckon that there is more substance and weight to life if you’re being spiritual..." –Choloisms

"AIDS' infamy as a disease isn't really because of its deadly nature, but because for the longest time people has associated it with the gay people- man has to accuse someone for the fault, while the accused burdened by the stigma of a false notion- at the end of the day, its just another disease that validates our mortality as humans... regardless of our demographics" -Choloisms for World Aids Day
"The death of one media practitioner dominoes into the grieving of two parents that nee, a wife, a brood, peers, a community gone mute, a province deafened, an island without a view, a country's spirit scarred... one death, one eye pierced not to see, one voice not to speak... one is the prerequisite of a lot of numbers..." -Choloisms

"Progress as a nation doesn’t only pertain to Urbanization and Modernity... sometimes it deals with knowledge, collective wisdom as a whole, a principle, a thought... a crave for further-ment of one's self and his emotions... even a step back to rekindle lost cultural heritage...the simplest of steps produces the deepest effects in progress..." -Choloisms
"its so hard being a taurean... deep natured and often patiently silent even in the face of what seems to be a heated debate... it becomes an advantage, you believe in the fluency of your silence... then at the tip of your tongue, the first letter of your first cuss word escapes... all hell brakes loose..." -Choloisms

"You loved me in my worst, when my halo broke, horns beacon, wings gilt with soot... your love cleansed me...now, you're long gone... my horn stabbed in your heart, never gone... now you're in worst, and I, in my best... should i love you?.. I should." ---Choloisms
