I have always held the religion of Muhammad in high estimation because of its wonderful vitality. It is the only religion which appears to me to possess that assimilating capacity to the changing phase of existence which can make itself appeal to every age. I have studied him - the wonderful man and in my opinion for from being an anti-Christ, he must be called the Saviour of Humanity. I believe that if a man like him were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world, he would succeed in solving its problems in a way that would bring it the much needed peace and happiness(The Genuine Islam, Vol. I, No 8)

George Bernard Shaw

[from ]In those days also people loved, envied, sought truth and virtue, and where carried away by passions; and there was the same complex mental and moral life among the upper classes, where were in some instances even more refined than now. If we have come to believe in the perversity and coarse violence of that period, that is only because the traditions, memoirs, stories, and novels that have been handed to us, record for the most part exceptional cases of violence and brutality. To suppose that the predominant characteristic of that period was turbulence, is as unjust as it would before a man, seeing nothing but the tops of trees beyond a hill, to conclude that there was nothing to be found in that locality but trees.

Love is either like misty rains, coming softly, but flooding the river. Or like thunder storms, soaking you through, and striking you with the pain of lightning.

Taylor E. Bennet

Nature isn't positive in that way. It doesn't aim itself at you. It's not being unkind to you.

David Attenborough

I mean, don't forget the earth's about five thousand million years old, at least. Who can afford to live in the past?

Harold Pinter

A rich man is nothing but a poor man with money.
