“I don't need more,
Don't let the chance go.
All i was looking for,
To live royalty,
My reality.
Over the clouds,
Watching the crowd.”

“لو كان الموت حتما ..
فلتمت شامخا ..
ففي المعركة ..
إن نجوت حيا
ستصير روحا مباركة ..
و إن سقطت
ستحيا الأسطورة ..
و ستحفر انتصارك ..
علي ألواح الدهر ..
لكنٌي
سأنتظر ..
حتي تعود الروح ..
إلي الجسد ..
حتر تعود لمشرقها
الشمس ..
سأنتظر ..
كلما تعقدت كل السبل ..
و ذوي جانبي الصبر ..”

“But today’s society is characterized by achievement orientation, and consequently it adores people who are successful and happy and, in particular, it adores the young. It virtually ignores the value of all those who are otherwise, and in so doing blurs the decisive difference between being valuable in the sense of dignity and being valuable in the sense of usefulness. If one is not cognizant of this difference and holds that an individual’s value stems only from his present usefulness, then, believe me, one owes it only to personal inconsistency not to plead for euthanasia along the lines of Hitler’s program, that is to say, ‘mercy’ killing of all those who have lost their social usefulness, be it because of old age, incurable illness, mental deterioration, or whatever handicap they may suffer. Confounding the dignity of man with mere usefulness arises from conceptual confusion that in turn may be traced back to the contemporary nihilism transmitted on many an academic campus and many an analytical couch.”
