Señor Pasta is a lawyer who also works as a consultant for the friars. He thinks only of himself, and is willing to be nationalistic only after everyone else becomes patriotic first.

Now let’s tackle this lawyers views and opinion…

He calls the Philippines a “Land of Proposals” because all you have are plans and no action. Does that sound familiar to you? :-)

Since he earns money from the friars, he hesitates to accede to the students’ wish that he help advise and convince Don Custodio to support the Spanish school.

He advises Isagani to just study well, earn a decent living, get married, and avoid getting into trouble. You know, lead a “safe” life. Since Isagani is quite idealistic, he prefers to live a life worth living. I wonder if Isagani will change if ever Rizal wrote a sequel to the El Fili.

Anyway, please read the “debate” between Señor Pasta and Isagani. Classic example of idealism versus becoming practical.

I wonder when Isagani will come to grips with reality…
