“Simplicity is the straightforwardness of a soul which refuses itself any reaction with regard to itself or its deeds. This virtue differs from and surpasses sincerity. We see many people who are sincere without being simple. They do not wish to be taken for other than what they are; but they are always fearing lest they should be taken for what they are not.” PeopleShouldSoulWishSimpleVirtueTakenRegardSimplicityRefuseDeedsReactionsSincereSincerity Author:Francois Fenelon
“Islam has taken everything from its wretched believers. They are robbed from their identity and self pride. All they have now is Islam. That is why Islam for Muslims is more than just a religion. It is their identity. When you criticize Islam, they perceive it as an attack on their identity and cringe with pain. They take that not only as an insult but also as an assault on their person. Like a corned animal they become vicious and fight back with all their might - a fight of survival. That is why you see such a violent reaction to a few silly cartoons.” PersonsSelfMightPainFightingAnimalTakenIdentityPrideSurvivalIslamBelieverSillyViolentReactionsPerceiveInsultCriticizeCartoonAssaultViciousWretchedCringe Author:Ali Sina
“If Kubrick had lived to see the opening of his final film, he obviously would have been disappointed by the hostile reactions. But I'm sure that in the end he would have taken it with a grain of salt and moved on. That's the lot of all true visionaries, who don't see the use of working in the same vein as everyone else. Artists like Kubrick have minds expansive and dynamic enough to picture the world in motion, to comprehend not just where its been, but where it's going.” IfsWorldMindHas BeensEndsEnoughUseFilmArtistTakenMovedFinalsReactionsOpeningDisappointedSaltGrainVeinsHostileVisionariesMoved OnGrain Of Salt Author:Martin Scorsese
