And your fragrance shall be my breath,
And together we shall rejoice through all the seasons.

Hearts united in pain and sorrow
will not be separated by joy and happiness.
Bonds that are woven in sadness
are stronger than the ties of joy and pleasure.
Love that is washed by tears
will remain eternally pure and faithful.

A little knowledge that acts is worth infinitely more than much knowledge that is idle.

So this is where all the vapid talk about the 'soul' of the universe is actually headed. Once the hard-won principles of reason and science have been discredited, the world will not pass into the hands of credulous herbivores who keep crystals by their sides and swoon over the poems of Khalil Gibran. The 'vacuum' will be invaded instead by determined fundamentalists of every stripe who already know the truth by means of revelation and who actually seek real and serious power in the here and now. One thinks of the painstaking, cloud-dispelling labor of British scientists from Isaac Newton to Joseph Priestley to Charles Darwin to Ernest Rutherford to Alan Turing and Francis Crick, much of it built upon the shoulders of Galileo and Copernicus, only to see it casually slandered by a moral and intellectual weakling from the usurping House of Hanover. An awful embarrassment awaits the British if they do not declare for a republic based on verifiable laws and principles, both political and scientific.

إنّ َقلبي ظمآن، وإنّي مع ذك لا أرضى لنفسي أن أرشفَ دماً رخيصاً لجنسٍ هزيل،
فالكأسُ ملوّثةٌ، وما فيها من خمرٍ مذاقهُ مرٌّ في فمي

في الجامعة البشرية أضراس مسوسة وقد نخرتها العلة حتي بلغت عظم الفك ، غير ان الجامعة البشرية لا تستأصلها لترتاح من اوجاعها بل تكتفي بتمريضها وتنظيف خارجها وملء ثقوبها بالذهب اللماع.

إن للطير شرفاً ليس للإنسان ، فالإنسان يعيش في ظلال شرائع وتقاليد ابتدعها لنفسه. أما الطيور فتحيا بحسب الناموس الكلي المطلق الذي يسير بالأرض حول الشمس

من لا يشاهد الملائكة والشياطين في محاسن الحياة ومكروهاتها يظل قلبه بعيداً عن المعرفة ونفسه فارغة من العواطف
