Famous Mehmet Murat Ildan Quotes

“Let an eagle's stance in life be your stance too: Noble and powerful!”

“You cannot claim to be civilized and be governed by religious rules at the same time; if one exists, the other does not! Religious rules has no place in the definition of civilization, because a civilized country is one where people are free, able to speak freely, dress freely, and criticize freely. No country where religious rules prevail can speak of freedom or civilization! A country that does not prioritize human reason over so-called supernatural powers is a failed country that has not yet established a civilization and has not yet evolved!”

Every man is an artist and every artist has the power to create infinite things; just be in the present time and design your life! No man can design his life by being in the past because present time is the only studio we can do our work!”

“Instead of trying to be taller than others, stronger than others, more superior to others, try to be gentler than others, more compassionate than others, fairer than others!”

“Environmental pollution is not only humanity’s treason to humanity but also a treason to all other living creatures on earth!”
