Quotes

  • The oppressed martyrs of our culture have shed blood that nourish the red tulips of our nation.
  • The ways of the British are inscrutable but they always seem to obtain their own ends without compromising their dignity or their honor.
  • Once Europe existed in a Dark Age and Islam carried the torch of learning. Now we Muslims live in a Dark age.
  • Although age has its normal limits, it may be extended by two things-the study of history and by travel. Reading history broadens one's perception of the creation of the world, while travel extends one's field of vision.
