There is no happiness for people at the expense of other people.

Let there be no more war or bloodshed between Arabs and Israelis. Let there be no more suffering or denial of rights. Let there be no more despair or loss of faith.

The only matter that could take Egypt to war again is water.

"Great suffering has a silver-lining that we can be grateful for, because it builds up a human being and puts him or her within reach of self-knowledge."

Peace is more precious than a piece of land.

Real success is success with self. It's not in having things, but in having mastery, having victory over self.

Land is immortal, for it harbors the mysteries of creation.
