“Thou knowest how numerous this tribe is, how united and how powerful in the assemblies. I will plead in a low voice so that only the judges may hear, for instigators are not lacking to stir up the crowd against me, and against all the best citizens. To scorn, in the interest of the Republic, this multitude of Jews so often turbulent in the assemblies shows a singular strength of mind. The money is in the Treasury; they do not accuse us of theft; they seek to stir up hatreds.” MindMayShowsVoiceInterestUnitedPowerfulJudgingCitizensLowsHatredJewCrowdsRepublicMultitudesLackingTribesScornTheftAssemblyTreasuryAll The BestStrength Of MindInstigators Author:Marcus Tullius Cicero
“My favorite single line from the Quran is from Surah 49:13, which says that God made us different nations and tribes that we may come to know one another, in the sense that diversity is holy and it was created by God. What we humans are meant to do with that diversity is engage in positive interaction with each other and come to know one another because knowledge is holy and pluralism or positive engagement is holy.” KnowsHumansMayMadeDifferentNationsLinesCommunicationHolyDiversityMy FavoriteEngagementInteractionTribesPluralismSingle Line Author:Eboo Patel
