“ولقد يقال إن المجتمع الإسلامي يعيش طبقا لمبادئ القران,ومع ذلك فمن الأصوب أن نقول :إنه يتكلم تبعا لمبادئ القران لعدم وجود المنطق العملي في سلوكه الإسلامي ”
― مالك بن نبي, شروط النهضة

“There was only one catch and that was Catch-22, which specified that a concern for one's safety in the face of dangers that were real and immediate was the process of a rational mind. Orr was crazy and could be grounded. All he had to do was ask; and as soon as he did, he would no longer be crazy and would have to fly more missions. Orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn't, but if he was sane he had to fly them. If he flew them he was crazy and didn't have to; but if he didn't want to he was sane and had to. Yossarian was moved very deeply by the absolute simplicity of this clause of Catch-22 and let out a respectful whistle.

"That's some catch, that Catch-22," he observed.

"It's the best there is," Doc Daneeka agreed.”

“From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

“ليست الديمقراطية إذن في أساسها عملية تسليم سلطات تقع بين طرفين معينين ، بين ملكِ وشعب مثلاً ، بل هي تكوين شعور وانفعالات ، ومقاييس ذاتية واجتماعية تشكل مجموعها الأسس التي تقوم عليها الديمقراطية في ضمير الشعب قبل أن ينص عليها أي دستور .”
