“إن المحرومين جنسيا هم دائما أصلب عداوة وحقدا، وأعنف تعبيرا عن هذه العداوة وهذا الحقد.”
― عبد الله القصيمي, أيها العقل من رآك

“Hence I think it is that democracies change into aristocracies, and these at length into monarchies,' people at last prefer tyranny to chaos. Equality of power is an unstable condition; men are by nature unequal; and 'he who seeks equality between unequals seeks an absurdity.' Democracy has still to solve the problem of enlisting the best energies of men while giving to all alike the choice of those, among the trained and fit, by whom they wish to be ruled.”
― Will Durant, The Story of Philosophy: The Lives and Opinions of the World's Greatest Philosophers

“A nation is born stoic, and dies epicurean”
― Will Durant

“Being a stoic does not mean being a robot. Being a stoic means remaining calm both at the height of pleasure and the depths of misery.”
― Abhijit Naskar, 7 Billion Gods: Humans Above All
