Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Be grateful for whoever comes, because each has been sent as a guide from beyond.”
Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi

Thomas Jefferson
“Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you.”
Thomas Jefferson

R. Buckminster Fuller
“We should do away with the absolutely specious notion that everybody has to earn a living. It is a fact today that one in ten thousand of us can make a technological breakthrough capable of supporting all the rest. The youth of today are absolutely right in recognizing this nonsense of earning a living. We keep inventing jobs because of this false idea that everybody has to be employed at some kind of drudgery because, according to Malthusian Darwinian theory he must justify his right to exist. So we have inspectors of inspectors and people making instruments for inspectors to inspect inspectors. The true business of people should be to go back to school and think about whatever it was they were thinking about before somebody came along and told them they had to earn a living.”
Buckminster Fuller

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Ignore those that make you fearful and sad, that degrade you back towards disease and death.”
Rumi Jalalud-Din

علي الوردي
“يقول نيتشه: "الدين ثورة العبيد". ويقول ماركس: "الدين أفيون الشعوب". وفي الحقيقة إنّ الدين ثورة وأفيون في آن واحد. فهو عند المترفين أفيون وعند الأنبياء ثورة. وكل دين يبدأ على يد النبي ثورة ثم يستحوذ المترفون عليه بعد ذلك فيحولونه إلى أفيون. وعندئذ يظهر نبي جديد فيعيدها شعواء مرة أخرى.”
علي الوردي, مهزلة العقل البشري
