Helena Petrovna Blavatsky
“There is no higher religion than the truth.”
H. P. Blavatsky

Jacque Fresco
“What is the meaning of life?" "What is consciousness and the mind?” "Why am I here?" “What is my relationship to God and the universe?" These questions have been asked for centuries, but they are irrelevant to achieving social progress. These are unanswerable questions because they don’t have referents in the real world. The posing of such ambiguous questions doesn’t express concern for fellow human beings, or a desire to elevate their condition. Such musings are gibberish in terms of practicality, and as impotent as wailing over an injured person instead of seeking medical attention for them.”
Jacque Fresco, The Best That Money Can't Buy

Naguib Mahfouz
“إذا لم يكن للحياة معنى فلم لا نخلق لها معنى؟!”
Naguib Mahfouz, Sugar Street

Warsan Shire
“You haven’t healed, I can tell from how cruel you are.”
Warsan Shire

زكي نجيب محمود
“يوجد فرق بين رجلين: رجل يرى الحق فتكفيه الرؤية, ورجل يرى الحق فلا يستريح له جنب حتى يغير الحياة وفق ما رأى”
زكي نجيب محمود, قصة عقل
