“Stand up for what is right even if you're standing alone.”
Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

“Beautiful is he who recognizes what is truly beautiful,
Even if the surface is ugly.
Truthful is he who says what is true,
Even if the truth is ugly.
Ugly is he who measures beauty by its exterior,
Without first weighing the interior.
And ugly is the man who judges harshly what he sees looking out,
Without first judging what he sees in the mirror.





Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun (2010)”
Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

“HOW TO CHOOSE A GREAT LEADER

Choose a leader who will invest in
Building bridges, not walls.
Books, not weapons.
Morality, not corruption.
Intellectualism and wisdom, not ignorance.
Stability, not fear and terror.
Peace, not chaos.
Love, not hate.
Convergence, not segregation.
Tolerance, not discrimination.
Fairness, not hypocrisy.
Substance, not superficiality.
Character, not immaturity.
Transparency, not secrecy.
Justice, not lawlessness.
Environmental improvement and preservation, not destruction.
Truth, not lies.”
Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

“Todo mundo tem um pouco de Sol e Lua. Todo mundo tem um pouco de homem, mulher e animal. Escuridões e luzes. Todo mundo é parte conectada de um sistema ³¦Ã³²õ³¾¾±³¦´Ç. Parte terra e mar, vento e fogo, com um pouco de sal e ±èó nadando entre eles. Temos um universo dentro de nós mesmos que imita o universo lá fora. Nenhum de nós está apenas preto ou branco, ou nunca errado e sempre certo. Ninguém. Ninguém existe sem polaridades. Todo mundo tem ´Ú´Ç°ùç²¹²õ boas e más trabalhando com eles, contra eles e dentro deles.”
Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

“A nightingale does not stop singing its beautiful song at the intrusion of an annoying woodpecker.”
