“إن علينا أن نكوّن حضارة ، أي ان نبني لا أن نكدس .
فالبناء وحده هو الذي يأتي بالحضارة لا التكديس ولنا في أمم معاصرة أسوة حسنة”

“إن الحرب هي أكبر الجرائم في العالم ، و هي دائما من أجل الأرض أو المال أو البترول ، أي " الاقتصاد " ؛ لكنها تتستر دائما تحت أردية دينية أو أخلاقية أو إنسانية . و يلعب "الإعلام" الحديث الدور الأكبر لتغطية الحقائق المادية بستائر من الروحانيات.”

“Love all, trust a few,
Do wrong to none: be able for thine enemy
Rather in power than use; and keep thy friend
Under thy own life's key: be check'd for silence,
But never tax'd for speech.”

“Bush and bin Laden are really on the same side: the side of faith and violence against the side of reason and discussion. Both have implacable faith that they are right and the other is evil. Each believes that when he dies he is going to heaven. Each believes that if he could kill the other, his path to paradise in the next world would be even swifter. The delusional "next world" is welcome to both of them. This world would be a much better place without either of them. ”
