“إن قيمة كل واحد منا على قدر ايمانه بنفسه”
علي شريعتي, النباهة والاستحمار

“الاستحمار هو طلسمة الذهن وإلهاؤه عن الدراية الإنسانية والدراية الاجتماعية و إشغاله بحق أو بباطل، مقدس أو غير مقدس.”
علي شريعتي, النباهة والاستحمار

“اذا غير الانسان ذاته وطبيعته يصبح قادراً على تغيير مصيره ومصير تاريخه ولا يرتبط ذلك بالجسم والمال والمقام..بل بانسانية الفرد التي تبقى له فقط”
علي شريعتي, النباهة والاستحمار
