They recycle the bad into things of beauty." ― Imelda Marcos Topic(s): Beauty More From Imelda Marcos "People say I’m extravagant because I want to be surrounded by beauty. But tell me, who wants to be surrounded by garbage?" "When they see me holding fish, they can see that I am comfortable with kings as well as with paupers." "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 I’m gone, people will remember me for building them homes and roads and hospitals and giving them food."
