I learned a lot about filmmaking from my dad. Starting when I was a child, I would listen to my dad as an actor, writer, director and producer talking about films - you know what the treatment would be in the opening, in the middle, and in the ending.

Integrity is a very important and an almost indispensable virtue that all leaders must possess. This is especially true in the Philippine context because we Filipinos really respond to leadership by example.

Your aspiration is really for the country to be better. I think that's exactly what I've gone through - a Filipino who may live elsewhere but who cares just as much for the country.

Grace Poe

I'm biased for movies that have triumphant endings.

If you don't expose something to sunlight, microbes and germs will thrive.

My dad was such a great story-teller, a good teacher.

You need a president whom you can trust, someone who will not steal your money, a president who is sincere, brave and just.

I see the Philippines one day as a developed country, one of the major economies of Asia - perhaps not in six years, but definitely in our lifetime.

Grace Poe

Definitely, I am not advocating an arms race.

In many parts of Mindanao, brownouts are a frequent occurrence.

The people who have been helping me in the past continue to support me. Many of them supported my father, and the support isn't just financial.

I believe that transparency is the solution to our problem on corruption.

My resume is lean enough that I don't have the added baggage that is not necessary to be able to be successful in government.
