Life
Danny Guades was jailed for seven years at the Caloocan City Jail for stabbing to death his elder brother Toto some time in the 1980s.
He had been married, but his wife died in December 2006 and he used to sleep at his cousin's house since then. He had a child, who was in grade four at the time of the murders.
Throughout the village Guades was known as a mentally imbalanced trouble-maker who was often drunk, sometimes waking two days, before running to the mangroves to sleep there on the ground for the following two days.
Apparently Guades had also told others that somebody is always chasing him.

Famous quotes containing the word life:
“At birth man is offered only one choice—the choice of his death. But if this choice is governed by distaste for his own existence, his life will never have been more than meaningless.”
—Jean-Pierre Melville (1917–1973)
“We are all of us resigned to death: it’s life we aren’t resigned to.”
—Graham Greene (1904–1991)
“Art is only a means to life, to the life more abundant. It is not in itself the life more abundant. It merely points the way, something which is overlooked not only by the public, but very often by the artist himself. In becoming an end it defeats itself.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
