Friedrich Nietzsche

I assess the power of a will by how much resistance, pain, torture it endures and knows how to turn to its advantage.

He who cannot give anything away cannot feel anything either.

The desire to annoy no one, to harm no one, can equally well be the sign of a just as of an anxious disposition.

Why do men fight who were born to be brothers?

Before I die, I will preach to the Muslims in the Arab world. I will preach in Egypt, Lebanon, Syria and Iran. I will preach in Tehran. I will do it under the umbrella of God. And see its impact.

Grief is the agony of an instant; the indulgence of grief the blunder of a life.
