Quote by Ehsan Sehgal

“If I say, I love, it does not show whom I love. When I say I love you, it also does not indicate who is you. If I express, I love God that clarifies my words. Be the first to talk with a clarification than with the awkward twaddle that no one grasps the meaning.”

“The human psyche has two great sicknesses: the urge to carry vendetta across generations, and the tendency to fasten group labels on people rather than see them as individuals. Abrahamic religion mixes explosively with (and gives strong sanction to) both. Only the willfully blind could fail to implicate the divisive force of religion in most, if not all, of the violent enmities in the world today. Without a doubt it is the prime aggravator of the Middle East. Those of us who have for years politely concealed our contempt for the dangerous collective delusion of religion need to stand up and speak out. Things are different now. ‘All is changed, changed utterly.”

“Here's the problem. Here's what news used to be: information. That's what news is. Now, every article in the New York Times starts, no matter what it is, it starts with, "On a rocky road in Afghanistan..." It's like, three paragraphs 'til you get to "a bomb blew up something in Afghanistan." The bomb is the news, the beginning is the writing. Facts are what's important in news, but no one is interested in facts anymore. People are interested--and this I find astonishing--they're interested in other people's opinions. So, unbiased news, I don't think we'll have anymore, because no one seems to know what news is. They turn on the news and they watch people give their opinions. That's what they watch on TV, that's what they see on the Internet, that's what they participate in. Here's how I feel when someone on CNN says, "Here's our Twitter number whatever-you-call-it...we want to know what you think." And I think, "Really? I don't.”

“Alles wat leef en beef is vreemdelinge op hierdie blou kluit. Dieaarde verdra lewe, maar sy het dit nie gebaar nie. G’n wonder jy kan nie jou sit kry nie. G’n wonder jy voel nooit tuis nie. G’n wonder jy wil heeltyd uit- en wegvlieg. Styg maar op en bespied die wydtes: jy sal geen vaderland vind nie. Daar is spore in die sand en stories oor die spore en verder net verlange en wind. (Buys se woorde aan 'n vlieg)”
