“In this time of uncertainty, when all our old social forms are crumbling, when we cannot easily find our way, we can be lights to each other.”

“We cannot go backward. We cannot erase time and events. But we can go forward, hand in hand, hope in our hearts and love lighting our way.”

“Perhaps the most quoted social philosopher of our time famously asked:
:"Can we all get along?"
Well, when it comes to Muslims and Westerners, the answer is:
:No, we can't.
So, deal with it. When we get in each other's faces, we get on each other's nerves. It's time to get out of each other's faces. Westerners and Muslims don't agree on the basics of social order and don't want to live under the same rules. That shouldn't be a problem because that's what separate countries are for. We should stop occupying their countries and stop letting them move to ours.”

“Courage is when we can overcome the fear and apprehension that pervades our hearts and minds when we find no other way out except by facing danger.”

“Why should we build our happiness on the opinons of others, when we can find it in our own hearts?”

“When we face our fears, we can find our freedom.”

“Our youth we can have but to-day,
We may always find time to grow old.”

“Why, when the world gets to understand about it I expect that two men or two women, or a man and a woman, will come in here, and say to me, 'We have quarrelled and outraged each other, we have injured our friend, our wife, our husband; we regret, we would forgive, but we cannot, because we remember. Put between us the atonement of forgetfulness, that we may love each other as of old.”

“But at a time when our discourse has become so sharply polarized — at a time when we are far too eager to lay the blame for all that ails the world at the feet of those who think differently than we do — it's important for us to pause for a moment and make sure that we are talking with each other in a way that heals, not a way that wounds.”

“Faith is a place of mystery, where we find the courage to believe in what we cannot see and the strength to let go of our fear of uncertainty.”
