“the ‘historical’ Arab states have been unable to accept that the basis of power in the contemporary world has changed: not only are oil barrels more important than guns, but also money is more important than population size.”
“Jamsetji said: ‘I can afford to give but I prefer to lend’, as thereby the scholarships could go on in perpetuity, there being no pressure to return the money (no interest). He also did so presumably because self-respect and self-esteem are essential for self-actualization.”

“I think what I loved about America—and still do—is the fact that it remains one of the places where if you had merit or capability, you had a chance to make it happen. It may not be that everybody with capability becomes a great success, but anybody willing to work hard and to be diligent has a fair chance. The United States has less of an issue of who you are, whose son you are, how rich you are as a requirement for success. So, you can be successful from the street, if you had the capability.”

“the event of the ‘golden calf ’ stands for love of this-worldly things as objects of worship (v. 51). This event happened soon after the great blessing of Bani Israel’s deliverance from the Pharaoh. The Book and the covenant had yet to come. This love, when it competes with and overwhelms the love for Allah, is the root cause of decadence.”

“Americans have less of an issue about who you are, whose son you are and how much family money you have. In the US, I learned, you can be successful from the street, if you have the capability.”

“When the Libyan uprising was first gathering steam, Qaddafi dismissed the protestors as “rats” and vowed to eradicate them with unmatched fury. Six months later, dirty and on the run, he was found by Libyan fighters hiding in a sewer pipe near the city of Sirte, begging his captors not to shoot him. They did not oblige. Tellingly, in a sign of broader trends across the region, on the day that Qaddafi’s palace in Tripoli fell to the rebels, the flag that was hoisted atop the building was that of Qatar, a sign, no doubt, of the tiny sheikhdom’s surprising reach and power. Qatar’s flag was soon replaced by Libya’s own new flag. But the symbolic importance of seeing the Qatari flag over Qaddafi’s one-time headquarters was hard to miss. A new regional power had risen.”
