I become more than ever convinced that it was not the sword that won a place for Islam in those days. It was the rigid simplicity, the utter self-effacement of Hussein, the scrupulous regard for pledges, his intense devotion to his friends and followers and his intrepidity, his fearlessness, his absolute trust in God and in his own mission. These and not the sword carried everything before them and surmounted every obstacle.

The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.

Honest differences are often a healthy sign of progress.

True morality consists not in following the beaten track, but in finding the true path for ourselves, and fearlessly following it.

Fearlessness is the first requisite of spirituality. Cowards can never be moral.

I want the cultures of all lands to be blown about my house as freely as possible. But I refuse to be blown of my feet by any.
