Quote by أبو حازم

“قال أبو حازم: إذا كنت تطلب من الدنيا ما يكفيك فأدنى ما فيها يكفيك و إن كنت تطلب ما يغنيك و لا يغنيك ما يكفيك فليس فيها ما يغنيك If you seek in this world what suffices you then the least of this world will suffice you and if you seek for what will fulfil you and you can't be fulfilled by what suffices you then nothing in this world will fulfill you.”

“Nous récoltons journellement et à chaque heure, ce que nous avons semé. Chaque jour, nous devenons mentalement, spirituellement et physiquement, ce que nous nous sommes faits nous-mêmes. Il s´ensuit que nous travaillons constamment, soit à notre propre salut, soit à notre perte, indépendamment des influences subtiles de l´hérédité ou de toute prédestination. L´homme a le pouvoir de choisir. Le libre arbitre est un facteur fondamental de sa conscience hautement développée, hautement évoluée. Mais lorsqu´il a fait son choix, il doit en accepter les conséquences; la responsabilité repose sur lui. Il doit récolter ce qu´il a semé, faire face aux obligations qu´il a contractées et payer ce qu´il a exigé. La vie est pour l´homme une lutte incessante entre l´impulsion à suivre et la décision à prendre. les inspirations divines de la conscience intérieure rivalisent avec les tentations matérielles et grossières de l´extérieur. L´homme est mû par des impulsions, mais il est libre de choisir et c´est pourquoi sa destinée dépend de sa décision.”

“Everything that comes from God must go back to God. They become dysfunctional when they remain with man. Blessings must turn to praise and praise is not just giving thanks for what God gave, it is giving back to Him what He gave. Don't give thanks to God for things that He gave and deny Him access to them for His use. Whatever blessing you don't return back to God in praise turns to pride.”

“How high can you fly before you crash? How long can you stay intoxicated beyond all recognition? How long can you sustain a buzz, a bender, a peak experience, a magic carpet ride, a hot-burning flame of mania, a trip to Venus on a pink cloud? How many days can you cut Earth School before you get called to the principal’s office? These are all very good questions that addicts do not generally like to answer. When pushed, however, an addict’s short response to all these questions is usually something along the lines of: As long as I can. We will keep this ride going for as long as we can. And we will not put it down until there is nothing left to smoke, drink, fuck, eat, spend, hoard, shoot into our veins, disappear into, or lick off the carpet in crumbs.”
