Those who worship God for the hope of gaining, they're not real worshippers, they're merchants. Those who worship God out of fear (of punishment), they're slaves. And those who worship God to be grateful towards their creator, they are the free people, and their worship is a real one. (Husayn ibn Ali)

Agitators are a set of interfering, meddling people, who come down to some perfectly contented class of the community and sow the seeds of discontent amongst them.

I doubt if a single individual could be found from the whole of mankind free from some form of insanity. The only difference is one of degree. A man who sees a gourd and takes it for his wife is called insane because this happens to very few people. View quote

A major source of objection to a free economy is precisely that it ... gives people what they want instead of what a particular group thinks they ought to want. Underlying most arguments against the free market is a lack of belief in freedom itself. View quote
