We believe democracy to be the only real guarantor of stability and we have sought to create a 'Jordanian model' that might also inspire others in our region. I wish democracy and peace to be my legacy to my people and the shield of generations to come.

Little islands of human happiness, peace, and prosperity are so exceptional at this point in history that I'm not even sure we can draw lessons from them.

My dad was a big believer in treating people well, oftentimes even when he himself wasn't well.

Dale Carnegie

The longer we live, and the more we think, the higher value we learn to put on the friendship and tenderness of parents and friends. Parents we can have but once; and he promises himself too much, who enters life with the expectation of finding many

Samuel Johnson

The final test of a gentleman is his respect for those who can be of no possible service to him.

William Lyon Phelps

Prose, words in their best order. Poetry, the best words in the best order.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge
