The heart of the problem, I soon came to understand, was that with Pablo there must always be a victor and a vanquished. I could not be satisfied with being a victor, nor, I think, could anyone who is emotionally mature. There was nothing gained by being vanquished either, because with Pablo, the moment you were vanquished he lost all interest. Since I loved him, I couldn't afford to be vanquished. What does one do in a dilemma like that? ↗

المؤمن لا تتم له لذه بمعصيه أبداً بل لا يُباشـرها إلا و الحزن يخالط قلبه و متى خلا قلبه من هذا الحزن فليبكي على موت قلبه ↗

Indeed, it's futile to try and use Holy Scripture to support any political position. I deeply distrust anyone who does. Just look at what an Islamic Republic is like. ↗

لا يكاد العرب ــ وربما المسلمون ــ يتوقفون، علي مدي القرون، عن اختراع حوامل يعلقون عليها انقسام عالمهم وتشظيه؛ وبما يعنيه ذلك من أن الأصل في العالم هو الانقسام والتباعد. وهذا النوع من الانقسام هو أحد نتاجات رؤية للعالم استقرت وغلبت داخل التراث الإسلامي؛ وذلك مع ملاحظة أن تلك الرؤية للعالم تعد من رواسب ومخلفات عالم القبيلة الذي جاء الإسلام، في سعيه إلي بناء عالم جديد، لكي ينفيه ويرفعه، لكنه استمر حياً وفاعلاً في وعي العربي حتي الآن، علي الرغم من غياب القاعدة المادية الحاملة له في الواقع. إن ذلك يعني أن (القبلية) تستمر فاعلة في الوعي الراهن؛ ولو كرؤية محفزة للانقسام والتفكك، وذلك علي الرغم من غياب الحامل الواقعي لتلك الرؤية ( الذي هو القبيلة) ↗

Your pain is not prescribed by your creator, He is the healer thus not giver of misery. We are victims of others; lay the blame where it belongs. Mankind is responsible for its environment and culture, the earth was in its purest form when Adam arrived (blessing on our first prophet) Culture created by man for power. The day we take responsibility for our actions, will be the day God walks through the door smiling ↗

It is true that some secluded intellectuals in their esoteric circles talk differently. They proclaim the priority of what they call eternal absolute values and feign in their declamations—not in their personal conduct—a disdain of things secular and transitory. But the public ignores such utterances. The main goal of present-day political action is to secure for the respective pressure group memberships the highest material well-being. The only way for a leader to succeed is to instill in people the conviction that his program best serves the attainment of this goal. ↗
