علي بن أبي طالب
“سأصبر حتى يعجز الصبر عن صبري
سأصبر حتى ينظر الرحمن في أمري
سأصبر حتى يعلم الصبر
أني صبرت على شئٍ أمرّ من الصبر”
علي بن أبي طالب

علي بن أبي طالب
“How strange and foolish is man. He loses his health in gaining wealth. Then, to regain his health he wastes his wealth. He ruins his present while worrying about his future, but weeps in the future by recalling his past. He lives as though death shall never come to him, but dies in a way as if he were never born”
Imam Ali as

Denise A. Spellberg
“So, if they hold aloof from you and wage not war against you and offer you peace, Allah alloweth you no way against them” (Qur’an 4:90).”
Denise A. Spellberg, Thomas Jefferson's Qur'an: Islam and the Founders

Rollo May
“One means of allaying anxiety is frantic activity. The anxiety arising out of the dilemma of powerlessness in the face of suprapersonal economic forces on one hand, but theoretical belief in the efficacy of individual effort on the other, was symptomized partly by excessive activism.”
Rollo May, The Meaning of Anxiety
