“انهم جميعا يعتبرون النمو اهم بكثير من التوزيع اى ان زيادة حجم الكعكة اهم بكثير من مراعاة المساواة فى توزيعها بعبارة أخرى : الكفاءة عندهم أهم من العدالة فبيع القطاع العام سيحقق الكفاءة فى رأيهم وهذا هو المهم اما تسريح العاملين وارتفاع نسية البطالة او ارتفاع اسعار السلع والحاجات الضرورية التى لابد ان تترتب على الخصخصة فلا يتكلمون عنها الا عندما يضطرون لذلك”

“We are dying from overthinking. We are slowly killing ourselves by thinking about everything. Think. Think. Think. You can never trust the human mind anyway. It's a death trap.”

“Interestingly, this was the only incident of blatant prejudice that I can
remember. But I am aware that such opinions exist in human beings, and
it's not a question of being Egyptian or being an Arab or being a Muslim.
One could be a Christian against a Jew or a Jew against a Christian, or a
white against a black, or a man against a woman. My philosophy is not
to let such attitudes stop me from what I want to do. I don't take it very
seriously, although as you can see, I remember the incident very well.
The point was I had to get on with my work and had to behave properly,
and in the process perhaps even change the opinion of these people. But
on the other hand, if I did nothing but complain and feel sorry for myself,
then I wouldn't get anywhere.”
