"The sign of the people of bidâ€™ah is that they do not follow the salaf."

-- Ibn Taymiyyah

“They say the first sentence in any speech is always the hardest. Well, that one's behind me, anyway.”
“When a man can look upon the simple wild-rose, and feel no pleasure, his taste has been corrupted.”
“I couldnt imagine living my life with another name.”
“While I was writing I assumed it would be published under a pseudonym, and that liberated me: what I wrote was exactly what I wanted to read.”
“I find myself born into this particular position. I'm determined to make the most of it. And to do whatever I can to help. And I hope I leave things behind a little bit better than I found them.”

“I am an adherent of the ideal of democracy, although I well know the weaknesses of the democratic form of government. Social equality and economic protection of the individual appeared to me always as the important communal aims of the state. Although I am a typical loner in daily life, my consciousness of belonging to the invisible community of those who strive for truth, beauty, and justice has preserved me from feeling isolated.”
“They hear a voice in every wind, And snatch a fearful joy.”
