Manuel L. Quezon was five years old when he fought with a boy of his age. He
slapped the boy hard on his face. His father saw what he did, but he did not get angry.
Instead, he called Manuel and said to him calmly. You don't slap anybody on the face.
That's a big insult. If you have to fight somebody, use your fists."
The incident was repeated with another boy. Manuel's father let the day pass
without saying a word. Manuel thought his father had not caught him.
"Did you do something yesterday that I told you not to do?" asked his father,
Manuel answered with a quick "No."
"A liar does not deserve any respect, and he may well be insulted,' his father said
and he gave Manuel a big slap in the face.
