“Diribut runduklah padi
Dicupak datuk Temenggung
Hidup kalau tidak berbudi
Duduk tegak kemari canggung

Tegak rumah karena sendi
Runtuh budi rumah binasa
Sendi bangsa ialah budi
Runtuh budi runtuhlah bangsa
”
― Prof. Dr. Hamka, Lembaga Budi

“Today I meet with Dr. Syamsuddin Arif. He said Prof. al-Attas says, "I don't read much but I think a lot”

“Hati membutuhkan sesuatu yang menjaganya agar tetap kuat. Dan itu adalah iman dan ketaatan. Juga membutuhkan pemeliharaan dari gangguan yang membahayakannya yaitu dengan menjauhi dosa-dosa, maksiat dan berbagai hal penyimpangan. Perlu juga dihilangkan setiap hal yang rusak daripadanya. Dan hal itu dengan taubat nashuha dan memohon ampun kepada Dzat Yang Maha Mengampuni dosa-dosa.”
― Ibnu Qayyim al-Jauziyyah

“New mothers enter the world of parenting feeling much like Alice in Wonderland.
- Being a mother is one of the most rewarding jobs on earth and also one of the most challenging.
- Motherhood is a process. Learn to love the process.
- There is a tremendous amount of learning that takes place in the first year of your baby’s life; the baby learns a lot, too.
- It is sometimes difficult to reconcile the fantasy of what you thuoght motherhood would be like, and what you thought you would be like as a mother, with reality.
- Take care of yourself. If Mommy isn’t happy, no one else in the family is happy either.
- New mother generally need to lower their expectations.
- A good mother learns to love her child as he is and adjusts her mothering to suit her child.”
