she set the standard so high that even a seasoned senator will appear like her student or apprentice. i could only imagine how the senate today would look like if she's still around. her sarcastic laughs, piercing yet honest remarks, scholarly insights thrown at some of the newly elected jokers and dancers in the senate. she's so rare. it wud probably take another lifetime to have someone like MDS in the senate.

When I was in college, my professor in Philippine Constitution was Miriam’s student in UP Manila. Miriam used to tell the students “if you don’t have something in your brain, have at least a book in your hand” I’d still laugh to this day how my professor told the story. He was Miriam’s favorite student back then. My professor is ranked 1 as the best PolSci prof in my University. 💚 Miriam is the best President we never had.
