    Ibn ʿArabi
    “من تعب من الفكر وقف حيث تعب، فمنهم من وقف في التعطيل، ومنهم من وقف في القول بالعلل، ومنهم من وقف في التشبيه، ومنهم من وقف في الحيرة فقال لا أدري، ومنهم من عثر على وجه الدليل فوقف عنده فكلَّ عنده. فكل إنسان وقف حيث تعب، ورجع إلى مصالح دنياه وراحة نفسه وموافقة طبعه. فإن استراح من ذلك التعب، واستعمل النظر في الموضع الذي وقف فيه مشى حيث ينتهي به فكره إلى أن يتعب فيقف أيضاً أو يموت.”
