“Doubt as sin. — Christianity has done its utmost to close the circle and declared even doubt to be sin. One is supposed to be cast into belief without reason, by a miracle, and from then on to swim in it as in the brightest and least ambiguous of elements: even a glance towards land, even the thought that one perhaps exists for something else as well as swimming, even the slightest impulse of our amphibious nature — is sin! And notice that all this means that the foundation of belief and all reflection on its origin is likewise excluded as sinful. What is wanted are blindness and intoxication and an eternal song over the waves in which reason has drowned.”

“.. في وسط ساحة ثكنة عسكرية مقعد صغير يحرسه جندي، لم يعرف أحد لماذا كان ينبغي أن يحرس المقعد. كان المقعد يحرس على مدار الساعة، ومن جيل ضابط الى آخر كان الأمر يصدر و الجنود ينفذونه. لم يعبر أحد عن أية شكوك أو يسال لماذا. وهكذا استمر الأمر الى أن اراد شخص ما، جنرال أو كولونيل، أن يعرف سبب الأمر الأصلي. كان عليه أن يقلب في الملفات. وبعد وقت طويل من البحث عثر على الجواب: منذ واحد و ثلاثين عاما وشهرين و أربعة أيام، أمر ضابط حارسا ان يقف قرب المقعد الذي كان قد دهن لتوه، لكي لا يفكر أحد بالجلوس على الدهان الطري.”

“الاستعمار الواضح يبتـُرك دون تنكر : يمنعك من الكلام ، ومن الفعل ، أو يمنعك من الوجود. أما الاستعمار اللامرئي ، على أي حال ، يقنعك أن القنانة هي قدرك والعجز طبيعتك: يقنعك أنه ليس من الممكن الكلام وليس من الممكن الفعل ، وليس من الممكن الوجود”

“Dare to Be

When a new day begins, dare to smile gratefully.

When there is darkness, dare to be the first to shine a light.

When there is injustice, dare to be the first to condemn it.

When something seems difficult, dare to do it anyway.

When life seems to beat you down, dare to fight back.

When there seems to be no hope, dare to find some.

When you’re feeling tired, dare to keep going.

When times are tough, dare to be tougher.

When love hurts you, dare to love again.

When someone is hurting, dare to help them heal.

When another is lost, dare to help them find the way.

When a friend falls, dare to be the first to extend a hand.

When you cross paths with another, dare to make them smile.

When you feel great, dare to help someone else feel great too.

When the day has ended, dare to feel as you’ve done your best.

Dare to be the best you can –

At all times, Dare to be!”
― Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free

“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
― Steve Jobs
