Quote by Tehmina Durrani

“When I noticed a huge barrier declaring me a non believer outside the New Town Mosque, I decided to clarify the allegation and explained politely to the Imam, "What I preach and practice is a good example for the world. Why do you swiftly brand me from another faith and give away credit that belongs to Islam?”

“For the artist, the goal of the painting or musical composition is not to convey literal truth, but an aspect of a universal truth that if successful, will continue to move and to touch people even as contexts, societies and cultures change. For the scientist, the goal of a theory is to convey "truth for now"--to replace an old truth, while accepting that someday this theory, too, will ve replaced by a new "truth," because that is the way science advances.”

“Jamás conocerán los hombres el bienestar bajo un régimen de comunidad de bienes. ¿Por qué medios se podrá conseguir la prosperidad común si todos se niegan a trabajar? Nadie tendrá un estímulo personal, y la confianza en que todos trabajan le hará perezoso. Por otra parte, si la miseria subleva los espíritus y ya no es posible adquirir nada como propio, ¿no caerá la sociedad de modo fatal y constante en la rebelión y la venganza? Si, además, desaparece la autoridad de los jueces y el temor saludable que inspiran, ¿qué papel pueden tener en la sociedad hombres para quienes no existiría ninguna diferencia social? Es algo que ni siquiera me atrevo a imaginar.”
