> “Kapwa is a recognition of a shared identity, an inner self, shared with others. This Filipino linguistic unity of the self and the other is unique and unlike in most modern languages. Why? Because implied in such inclusiveness is the moral obligation to treat one another as equal fellow human beings. If we can do this even starting in our own family or our circle of friends we are on the way to practice peace. We are Kapwa People.”
— Virgilio Enriquez, the founder of Filipino psychology
