This is because the Messenger Muhammad said, โWhoever insults a Prophet, kill him.โ

Then, as incidents occur, you may rise to the occasion and look back at the end of your life and feel good about the way you lived.

And finally, there are those who convert the body into a luminous fluidity, surrendering it to the inspiration of the soul.

Colby Mitchell Chester"Consider the matter dispassionately, Mr. Foster, and you will see that no offence is so heinous as unorthodoxy of behaviour. Murder kills only the individual- and after all, wha is an individual? ". . . ." We can make a new one with the greatest of ease- as many as we like. Unorthodoxy threatens more than the life of a mere individual; it strikes at Society itself."
Aldous HuxleyPeople are so overwhelmed with the prestige of their instruments that they consider their personal judgement of hardly any account.
Wyndham LewisFor the little that one has reflected on the origin of our knowledge, it is easy to perceive that we can acquire it only by means of comparison. That which is absolutely incomparable is wholly incomprehensible. God is the only example that we could give here. He cannot be comprehended, because he cannot be compared. But all which is susceptible of comparison, everything that we can perceive by different aspects, all that we can consider relatively, can always be judged according to our knowledge.
Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de BuffonMake your copy straightforward to read, understand and use. Use easy words; those that are used for everyday speech.

If you can't give the data directly and briefly, you must consider writing the copy again.
Jay AbrahamLet no one rule your mind or body. Take special care that your thoughts remain unfettered... Give men your ear, but not your heart.

Be careful with your money. Hold fast to your beliefs and others will listen.

Samuel JohnsonThe Voice did not consider itself a conventional magazine. It took me awhile to realize that it was named The Voice for a reason. They wanted voices. At the time, good magazine stories were still believed to be written in the third person based on the false belief they were more objective. Of course some conventional stories require third person, but in the really interesting stories - the ones I got do to at The Voice and Esquire - were about subjectivity, subjectivities.

Like the idea of seeing your parents naked or having somebody go down on you and worrying about whether you smell, or worrying about whether your body is weird or what goes across the face of a person who's supposed to be experiencing pleasure but isn't - those are things I'd love to normalize on TV.

Bram FischerThe people who are abroad are all those that have no religion, neither one based on speculation nor one received by tradition. Such are the extreme Turks that wander about in the north, the Kushites who live in the south, and those in our country who are like these. I consider these as irrational beings, and not as human beings; they are below mankind, but above monkeys, since they have the form and shape of man, and a mental faculty above that of the monkey.
MaimonidesFor example, it was this pack of wolves that sparked off the Rodney King affair a few years ago in Los Angeles.
