“ارحل بنفسك من ارضٍ تضام بهـا -- ولا تكن من فراق الأهل في حرق
فالعنبر الخام روث فـي مواطنـه -- وفي التغرب محمولُ على العنـق
والكحل نوع من الأحجار تنظـره -- في أرضه وهو مرمي على الطرق
لما تغرب حـاز الفضـل أجمعـه -- فصار يحمل بين الجفـن والحـدق”
― الامام الشافعى

All true, but not a useful contribution to the Party Line, hence dispensable.”

― Noam Chomsky, Gaza in Crisis: Reflections on Israel's War Against the Palestinians

“The whole educational and professional training system is a very elaborate filter, which just weeds out people who are too independent, and who think for themselves, and who don't know how to be submissive, and so on -- because they're dysfunctional to the institutions.”
― Noam Chomsky
