His mother Dionisia , sold coffee, then developing industry in Batangas, and a daughter of a teacher, Juan Maranan . - Mabini owned his interest in studying to his grandfather. Amidst poverty, Mabini’s parents, especially his mother persevered to send him to school.

21. - In return, Mabini persisted, worked hard, and deprived himself of the normal pleasure childhood. - His grades were impressive; almost all, excellent. Mabini pursued his Bachelor of Arts at the Colegio de San Juan de Letran (1881), maintaining excellent grades.

22. - He was working student, serving as a hay cutter in the estate of Don Arcadio del Rosario, a renowned lawyer in Manila. - But Mabini had to stop his studies, owing to financial difficulties and cholera outbreak in the City.

23. - He was forced to return to Batangas and there was temporarily employed as a teacher in the school of Fr. Valerio Malabanan in Bauan (1883), and later, in Lipa (1885-1887). - Despite his active involvement in the reform movement, Mabini finished his degree in law with excellent grades and become a professional (1894).

24. - Mabini's health slowly deteriorated (1895), his physician friends examined him, but failed to diagnose the cause of his illness, until one day (January 1896), he woke up unable to move his legs.

25. - Apolinario poured his knowledge of law and philosophy into writing the Ordenanzas de la Revolucion , which provided the system of armed struggle and governance in liberated towns. - But Mabini wondered: did the revolutionaries really understand the meaning of freedom?

26. According to Mabini “Many speaks of freedom without understanding it: many believe that being free means that one can act as one pleases, whether for good or evil - which is a great error. Freedom is only for good and never for evil, and it is always in accord with reason and the upright and honorable conscience of the person."

27. Because of this Mabini wrote El Verdadero Decalogo (The True Decalogue) and a version in Tagalog. Here Mabini emphasized the value of goodness: to be good in the eyes of God and fellowmen, and putting in mind the welfare of the many and of the motherland.

32. As Mabini quoted “I have no other balm to sweeten the bitterness of a harsh and melancholy life in exile than the satisfaction given by the conviction of having always done what I believed to be my duty. God grant that I can say the same at the hour of my death”.

33. He was captured by U.S. troops in December 1899 and, because he refused to swear allegiance to the United States, was exiled to Guam, not being allowed to return home until a few months before his death. Mabini wrote La revolución filipina , which was published in 1931.
