Quote by Agatha Christie

“Inspector Narracott was a very efficient officer. He had a quiet persistence, a logical mind and a keen attention to detail which brought him success where many another man might have failed. He was a tall man with a quiet manner, rather far-away grey eyes, and a slow soft Devonshire voice.”

“وقد انتهى من الدراسة. أما اغترافه من ً بحر الثقافة فلا يتوقف أبدا. إنه يُشبع بها أشواقه إلى املعرفة ويكمل بها ذاته لتكون ً أهلا ً للمركز الذي سيشغله يوما بإذن الله وفضله. ويتسلَّح بها في نضاله الطويل املرير ُّ في الغابة الرسمية التي يطالب فيها كل ٍ ذي شأن بقرابينه. إنه لا يملك سحر املال، ولا يتمتع بامتيازات الأسر الكبرية. ولا قوة حزبية تسنده، وليس من الذين يرتضون أن يلعبوا َّ دور البهلوان أو العبد أو القواد، إنه واحد من أبناء الشعب التعيس الذي عليه أن يتزود َّ بكل سلاح، ويتحني كل فرصة، ويتوكل على الله، ويستلهم حكمته الأبدية التي قضت على َّ الإنسان بالسقوط في الأرض لريتفع بعرقه ودمه مرةً أخرى إلى السماء”

“The shift towards Permaculture Economics represents a paradigm shift in how businesses operate. By recognizing their interconnectedness with the world around them, companies can unlock new opportunities for growth, resilience, and positive impact.”

“In any economic ecosystem whereby things are measured primarily according to their present gross utility; it becomes tolerable and even profitable to create, sell and buy products and services which cause net future harm even as they provide present gross utility. This is why a permaculture economy is superior to every other economic ecosystem.”

“Permaculture Economics views businesses as interconnected parts of a larger ecosystem. By understanding and optimizing these relationships, companies can create positive feedback loops that benefit not only their bottom line but also the environment, their communities, and society as a whole.”

“Pure capitalism is great at rewarding the creative utilization of capital by one group of people in service to another according to present gross utility and refined use cases. But pure capitalism does not address the intentional placement of boundaries or the intentional facilitation of productive interactions accounting for net utility and holistic use cases. This is why pure capitalism at times is threatened by or presents threats to a variety of social and ecological ecosystems. And this is why permaculture economics is superior to pure capitalism, as it contains all of the benefits of capitalism plus some benefits that capitalism does not provide .”
