Matt Damon
“You wasted $150,000 on an education you coulda got for $1.50 in late fees at the public library.”
Matt Damon, Good Will Hunting

“موقف الحياد هو موقف العاجز الذي يريد لنفسه السلامة والهدوء.”
زكي نجيب محمود

George Orwell
“How does one man assert his power over another, Winston?�

Winston thought. “By making him suffer�, he said.

“Exactly. By making him suffer. Obedience is not enough. Unless he is suffering, how can you be sure that he is obeying your will and not his own? Power is in inflicting pain and humiliation. Power is in tearing human minds to pieces and putting them together again in new shapes of your own choosing. Do you begin to see, then, what kind of world we are creating? It is the exact opposite of the stupid hedonistic Utopias that the old reformers imagined. A world of fear and treachery is torment, a world of trampling and being trampled upon, a world which will grow not less but MORE merciless as it refines itself. Progress in our world will be progress towards more pain. The old civilizations claimed that they were founded on love or justice. Ours is founded upon hatred. In our world there will be no emotions except fear, rage, triumph, and self-abasement. Everything else we shall destroy � everything. Already we are breaking down the habits of thought which have survived from before the Revolution. We have cut the links between child and parent, and between man and man, and between man and woman. No one dares trust a wife or a child or a friend any longer. But in the future there will be no wives and no friends. Children will be taken from their mothers at birth, as one takes eggs from a hen. The sex instinct will be eradicated. Procreation will be an annual formality like the renewal of a ration card. We shall abolish the orgasm. Our neurologists are at work upon it now. There will be no loyalty, except loyalty towards the Party. There will be no love, except the love of Big Brother. There will be no laughter, except the laugh of triumph over a defeated enemy. There will be no art, no literature, no science. When we are omnipotent we shall have no more need of science. There will be no distinction between beauty and ugliness. There will be no curiosity, no enjoyment of the process of life. All competing pleasures will be destroyed.”
George Orwell, 1984

“معنى الحرية الدينية ليس بالضرورة أن أخرج على ما يعتقده الناس ، بل معناه أن أعرف هذا الذي أتبعه من عقيدة، أن أعرفه بالتفصيل حتى لا أستند إلى أحد في شرحه لي.”
زكي نجيب محمود, طريقنا إلى الحرية
