“Only God, the Exalted, is the light; everything else is darkness.”
Ruhollah Khomeini

“We do not worship Iran, we worship Allah. For patriotism is another name for paganism. I say let this land [Iran] burn. I say let this land go up in smoke, provided Islam emerges triumphant in the rest of the world.”
Ruhollah Khomeini

“If you have divine motives, material benefits will follow suit but they are no longer material; they have become divine.”
Ruhollah Khomeini
